  • Say Goodbye to Passive Onboarding.
    Oct 10 2024

    Tell us what you like about our show and share your Bad work stories so we can help. Thanks Emma & Corina

    We are on a mission to end suffering at work.

    Bad work stories are everywhere - they are stressful - sucking our time, attention and precious energy, and for a lot of us, we take the stress home.

    A great leader once said - “Be the change you want to see in the world “, and that's what we do here.

    We must do something different if we want more joy and healthy collaboration in our teams and organisations. Take what resonates with you, and let us know how you get on.

    This week, we chat about passive onboarding and how it wastes time and creates unnecessary waiting and uncertainty. Pre installed alignment that quickly sets everyone up for success is possible - purpose and culture - USE IT ! Your new people will thank you for it.

    Thank you for joining us.

    Today we celebrate our 2 year anniversary and we thank everyone who has listened, given us feedback and joined us on the mission to stop suffering at work.

    We are taking a podcast pause to work on creative development and will be back soon.

    We appreciate your email address and will treat it with respect.

    With Love Emma and Corina
