Sacred Conversations on Work

In the second episode of Sacred Conversations On Work host Carol Ross speaks with Jason Lauritsen. Jason is a former human resources executive turned his passion for understanding people into a innovative career as an employee engagement and workplace culture expert. After climbing to the top of the corporate world, Jason realized that people want more from their jobs and that a job isn’t “just where you go during the day.” Jason explains how in fact work is another type of personal relationship. He explains how if employees aren’t receiving what they need emotionally from their workplace then it creates a dysfunctional and unproductive relationship. Listen as Jason dissects the concept of employee fit as a function of values alignment, the importance of a thoughtfully articulated company culture, and the importance of cultivating a meaningful relationship between the employees and the firm.

In the inaugural episode, host Carol Ross interviews the remarkable General Manager of the Four Seasons Resort in Punta Mita, Mexico. John O’Sullivan: poet, artist, traveler and management guru reveals his compassionate, and innovative leadership philosophy. Through heartfelt anecdotes and insightful reflection, the witty Irish hotelier offers a profound glimpse into what motivates us as employees and managers.

To John, "failure is one step on the way to success." With this in mind, he has established a zero blame culture at his hotel because he believes that providing a safe space for his employees to express their creativity is fundamental to success in any organization. The trust John places in his employees is earnestly reciprocated due to his emphasis on managerial consistency, articulated boundaries, and apolitical communication. All of these concepts are parsed in depth on this episode.
