Good Work Shouldn’t Be This Hard explores what happens when good people try to do important work inside a system that makes it harder than it should be. Host Jenn Gray talks with executives and operators navigating complexity, growth, and change in education, healthcare, legal, and anywhere else a broken system is getting in the way. Together, they unpack where existing systems create unnecessary friction, who pays the price, and what possibilities emerge when we rethink how the work is designed.

    Perverse Incentives In Education and Healthcare with Aaron Bare

    If a system keeps producing outcomes nobody actually wants, is it broken, or is it working exactly as designed? In this episode, incentives strategist Aaron Bare joins Jenn to unpack the hidden and perverse incentives in the education and healthcare systems – and why chasing test scores and billing codes so often pulls us further from the outcomes we actually want. Aaron shares what two decades of facilitating strategy inside hundreds of organizations taught him about incentives, why he believes AI will accelerate whatever is already broken inside a system, and what it actually takes to become a creator instead of a consumer in a world engineered for your attention.
