Episode 61: Remember Sears?
from The Bias Disruption Podcast · host Josh Packard and Megan Bissell
Do you remember how great Sears used to be? We are both of the generation that thought Sears was the best- and then they did some weird things and it's not going so well for them. We talk about Sears, how millennials are going to "save the postal service" and how it's crucial to lay the groundwork for training during change, or all of the efforts will be wasted. We also answer some listener mail.
