What you do for your employees says everything about you. And yet, it's not just in offering “a competitive benefits package,” now the real winners are organizations that use those benefits to make meaningful improvements in their employee's lives. We have a saying at our company, “A benefit isn't a benefit unless your employee understands it and can use it properly.” My incredible guest @Joshua O'Gara is a fellow Employee Benefits Specialist and employment culture enthusiast and we dive into several key factors behind delivering an elevated benefits experience.

How can boards reclaim their agency to be effective today and set their successors up for years to come?
