In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ sits down with Micah Remley, CEO of Robin Powered, to discuss the challenges and opportunities of hybrid work. They explore how data-driven approaches can transform workplace culture, boost productivity, and help companies thrive in a post-pandemic world where flexibility and connection are more important than ever. Key Takeaways: [2:06] Hybrid work is here to stay, but a one-size-fits-all solution doesn't work—companies must use data to create meaningful in-person experiences. [6:53] Culture is the tie that binds organizations; remote and hybrid work have made it harder to maintain, but it's essential for long-term success. [17:19] Proximity to high performers in the office can boost individual performance by 15% due to emulation and peer pressure. [22:05] Flexible, unstructured hybrid models often fail—coordinated team days and intentional office use are key to making hybrid work successful. Quote of the Show [3:45]:"You're deeply passionate about what you're trying to disrupt... you feel it in your soul because you're putting yourself out there, trying to move the needle." – Micah Remley Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Kae Williams is a global software marketing executive on a mission to empower women in their careers through her work and her forthcoming book, Not Made For You. Kae works diligently to raise awareness about bias and hostile work cultures so that every woman will feel supported, respected, and enabled to achieve her full potential. Here are three key takeaways from the conversation about measuring organizational culture: Culture Needs Tangible Metrics, Not Just Talk: Organizations must treat culture like a business outcome, measuring it with the same rigor they apply to revenue and profit. This means looking at metrics such as retention rate and understanding that the main drivers of people leaving are burnout, not feeling supported, and lack of career growth. Focus on the "How," Not Just the "What": Performance reviews and rewards must balance the results an employee achieves with how they achieve them. A high performer who creates a toxic work environment will ultimately cost the company more in lost talent than the revenue they generate. Companies should actively reward behaviors like leading with empathy and being a "culture maker". Support and Train Your Managers: Middle managers are essential to the employee experience, but are often stuck without the right tools. Equipping them with skills like giving constructive, behavior-based feedback and knowing how to coach their teams is vital. Furthermore, organizations must audit workloads to prevent burnout and shift non-promotable tasks to avoid over-burdening women and marginalized employees.

Danielle Dinkelman shares her journey into corporate wellness, shaped by personal injury and witnessing her husband's burnout. She emphasizes that effective wellness programs require shared responsibility between employers and employees, focusing on five key areas: rest, fuel, play, connection, and purpose. Success depends on authentic leadership commitment rather than incentive-driven programs. TAKEAWAYS Rest is productive, not a distraction — leaders must recognize that sustainable performance requires intentional recovery time. High-impact wellness coaching achieves 20-40% utilization — far exceeding traditional programs when integrated authentically into company culture. Burnout prevention requires policy alignment — review employee handbooks through the lens of rest, fuel, play, connection, and purpose.

Leaders often believe they're making the most of their time, but the reality is different. Hours slip away in meetings that don't move the needle, endless follow-ups, and decision bottlenecks that stall progress. In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, we break down where time gets lost and how the right mix of technology and culture can help leaders reclaim it. You'll learn: The most common ways leaders unknowingly waste time. How dashboards, automation, and streamlined systems reduce unnecessary follow-ups and delays. Why creating a time-respecting culture is as important as adopting new tools. Practical steps to cut wasted hours and boost team productivity. The takeaway? Reclaiming time isn't about doing more — it's about doing less of what doesn't matter, and focusing on what does. Tech helps you work smarter, but culture ensures those gains last.   Article:  https://www.breakfastleadership.com/blog/why-leaders-waste-more-time-than-they-think-and-how-tech-fixes-it Need help with your Workplace Culture?

Summary: In this episode of the Customer Service Revolution podcast, Denise Thompson and John R. DiJulius III discuss the alarming trend of employees, particularly Gen Z, wanting to sever their work and personal lives. They explore the implications of this disconnect, the role of workplace culture in mental health, and strategies leaders can implement to foster a more supportive environment. The conversation emphasizes the importance of purpose in the workplace and how it can enhance employee satisfaction and productivity, ultimately benefiting the organization as a whole. Takeways: Nearly half of Gen Z workers prefer to separate work and personal life. A significant percentage of employees would consider extreme measures to disconnect from work stress. Workplace culture plays a crucial role in employee mental health. Leaders should create environments where employees feel whole and valued. Purpose in work is essential for employee satisfaction and retention. Effective communication and boundaries are vital for employee well-being. Employee experience directly impacts customer experience and satisfaction. Building trust and authenticity in the workplace fosters a positive culture. Leaders must recognize the importance of employee happiness as a business imperative. The interview process should focus on finding the right fit for both the employee and the organization.

October 9, 2025: Burnout isn't always burnout — sometimes it's just work that's lost its rhythm. In today's Future-Ready Today episode, Jacob Morgan explores six powerful signals reshaping the modern workplace. From Google tightening its hybrid work policy to new data revealing that most corporate cultures aren't ready for AI, the future of work is moving from convenience to clarity. You'll hear how job seekers are prioritizing reputation over perks, why “linchpin” executives are cracking under pressure, and how one-third of leaders are now testing AI before hiring. Then Jacob takes aim at the burnout narrative — separating stress from exhaustion, and explaining why the real issue is recovery, not overwork. He closes with the 1%-a-Day Challenge: one practical habit to build discipline, focus, and energy for the long game of leadership. If you lead teams or shape culture, this episode will help you rethink what it truly means to be future-ready in an era where easy work is over — and meaningful work is what's next.
