Why People are the Heart of Your Profits with Jenn Whitmer

Remember when you were a kid and you went to the swimming pool or the beach and you swam your heart out? You’d come home that happy kind of exhausted. The kind of exhausted that left a smile on your face. A positive culture should feel like that. You should be doing meaningful work, creating an impact, and coming home feeling thrilled and content. Does that sound impossible? In this episode I give you the blueprint to creating the positive work environment of your dreams. No, it’s not always going to feel like the perfect beach day every day, but it is going to help you align your values with your actions. If you’re new around here, I’m a big fan of the enneagram.
