hey, Bret Starr! How Office Culture Can Change Your Personality and Beliefs with Special Guest Faith Geiger

WATCH NOW

LISTEN NOW

The workplace is not just a place where you spend hours of your day. It is a space where lives, value systems, purposes, and visions are shaped. How does your workplace culture account for that? We discuss how companies can be stewards of human development and love and how they can also perpetrate misery and depression.

Listen now as I chat with Faith Geiger about the cost of prioritizing pragmatism over emotions, how to create a workplace culture that brings up more generous and loving individuals, and the difference between coaching and therapy.

This is episode 1 of 4 in this special series.

4 Key Takeaways?

• The pandemic wouldn’t have had such a powerful effect on us and on the workplace if we were initially operating in a loving and resilient way.?
• Many times, brand problems aren’t brand problems at all - they are environmental and cultural problems. The brand problem is merely a symptom of a lack on the human level.?
• People no longer want just any odd job, they want experiences that fulfill them personally and professionally.?
• People’s experience in the workplace can completely reshape their view of life and doing business as a whole. The workplace can bring up loving and generous human beings, it can also bring up burnt out and miserable human beings who want nothing to do with the workplace. It only takes one bad or good experience to change someone’s life forever.?
• Create a Life Events timeline, from birth to present, to reflect on where you have been and then intentionally focus on the future you want to create. Seeing a narrative of your life allows you to deeply observe yourself and what has brought you to where you are today.
