Season 2. Ep. 1: (LIVE) Bridging the Gap: Creating a Culture of Belonging

Belonging is that sense you get that you are a valued member of a community. When people feel that they are part of a community, they feel a sense of purpose. A sense of belonging brings meaning into our lives, and this is true for all communities, whether it’s your sports teams, your church, your parenting group, or even your workplace.  A 2019 survey by BetterUp found that: Workplace belonging can lead to a staggering 56% increase in job performance. It can also lead to a 50% reduction in employee turnover risk. Workplace belonging can lead to a 75% decrease in employee sick days. A single incidence of micro-exclusion can lead to a 25% performance decline on a team project for the excluded individual. We sit down with Rob Stull, Vanessa Joga, David Conner, and Valerie Zolezzi-Wyndham to discuss how we can create a culture of belonging with a Live Audience.
