Perspectives: What’s Love Got To Do With Work
Why getting comfortable with the “L word” is the key to business success.
Turns out the late, great Tina Turner was onto something. Love makes the world go ‘round, and now it’s steadily making its way into our world of work.
We shouldn’t be so surprised. Love, even in the workplace, is the driver of well-being, morale, psychological safety, and so much more of the good stuff.
While the workplace isn’t a rom-com, a culture without kindness and empathy are nothing to laugh about. Data says “job satisfaction has declined at a rate 10 times faster than in the previous three years.”
Has there ever been a greater need for love to save the day?
Join us for this powerful session, where you’ll learn:
- How increasing isolation and loneliness is threatening employee well-being (and how to combat this)
- Why belonging has become an essential component of employee engagement (and how to foster more of it)
- Why having a “bestie” at work can boost the bottom line (even Gallup says so)
We’d love to see you there! 💞

Perspectives: Hiring in the Land of Make-Believe
Cut Through the Performance to Hire with Confidence To make a new hire is to participate in a performance. Post a new job, and suddenly everyone is acting as if they’re on stage. Candidates are coached, polished, and increasingly AI-assisted. Meanwhile, hiring managers are pantomiming to the ideal candidate they’ve imagined instead of addressing the…

Perspectives: Running on Empty
How HR Leaders Can Reignite Team Motivation When the World Feels Heavy Team motivation is at a historic low, and it didn’t happen by accident.
