about the podcast

Red paint stroke on a white background with uneven edges.

Eight years and over 100 episodes of real talk about work.

We talk to HR leaders, organizational thinkers, and workplace experts about how to build and sustain the workplace required now for the future. We go deep on the stuff most workplaces avoid: driving systemic change, what culture really means, and the ever-changing role of leadership.

If you're an HR leader, a manager, or someone who's felt the weight of workplace dysfunction—this is for you.

New episodes drop the third Thursday of every month.
