The Bulldoze Era: What Happens When Government Gets Streamlined Like a Startup?


Listen Later

In this eye-opening episode of *The Work Wire*, Bob Goodwin is joined by Johnny C. Taylor Jr., President & CEO of SHRM, to unpack the sweeping changes taking shape under what Bob dubs the "Bulldoze Era"—a rapid-fire effort to dismantle bureaucracy, slash federal agencies, and upend traditional policies. From the Department of Education's possible shutdown to AI-fueled layoffs and the implosion of DEI initiatives, nothing is off the table.


Together, Bob and Johnny explore:

  • What "efficiency" really means when people's livelihoods are at stake
  • Why lifelong learning is no longer optional—it's survival
  • The future role of HR leaders in a volatile, tech-powered workplace
  • How businesses and workers can adapt in the face of abrupt change

  • Whether you view these shifts as reform or reckless overreach, one thing’s clear: the future of work is being rewritten—fast. Tune in for honest analysis, bold predictions, and a call to own your career like never before.
