Patiently waiting for the heart of the conversation, our guests John Baird and Edward Sullivan help businesses create safe conditions for workers to feel seen and heard by their managers.

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…  leaders who want to connect with their employees on the deepest human level, ultimately unlocking creativity, purpose, and results.

 

TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… In order to build long-term sustainable profit, you need to find purpose as a company. When workplace leaders can create safe workplace environments, workers can be their authentic selves and grow to be more effective and skillful individuals. The bottom line is that if you can take care of your team members, you can turn the tide on the Great Resignation and have loyal team members for years to come.

 

WHAT  I  LOVE  MOST Both John and Edward are focused on the human side of business, which ultimately translates to financial gain when workers feel empowered by the company culture and actively look out for each other’s emotional wellbeing.
