EP 35 - Would you rather visit your dentist or HR?

What the Biz?!

Dan and Brigitte tackle a crucial element of business success in this episode: cultivating a positive company culture. They kick things off with a lighthearted conversation about Olympic sports and the unexpected lessons they offer on teamwork and communication. Then, they dive deeper into a recent article from SBAM highlighting the disconnect many employees experience with their HR departments. Dan and Brigitte share actionable strategies for building a strong company culture, including:

• Hiring based on values: Find individuals who align with your company's core beliefs.
• Creating a safe space: Encourage open communication and allow for mistakes.
• Practicing empathy: Listen to employee concerns and address them with understanding.

Bonus Tip: Dan and Brigitte recommend essential leadership and management books, including "Leaders Eat Last" by Simon Sinek, "Dare to Lead" by Brené Brown, and "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team" by Patrick Lencioni.
