HR We Have A Problem- Igniting Employee Engagement: A Conversation with Mental Fitness Coach Todd Bertsch

Disengagement and burnout have barely budged in decades — Gallup still puts disengagement at 80%+. In this episode, host Cliff Stevenson sits down with mental fitness coach Todd Bertsch to talk about the early warning signs of burnout, why lasting change usually starts with an interruption rather than a pep talk, and a simple mindset shift — from "I have to" to "I get to" — that applies to everything from AI adoption to hybrid work.  Todd shares the thinking behind his book Ignite Your Spark and his SQ Spark Assessment, which measures how "lit up" someone really is at work, plus why a 30-minute weekly one-on-one can be one of the highest-leverage things a manager does for retention.  Guest: Todd Bertsch, mental fitness coach and host of The Bolt podcast  Website: toddbertsch.com  About the show: HR We Have a Problem breaks down the biggest issues in HR today and what to actually do about them.
