The world of work has changed as leaders, teams, and employees alike begin to adjust to the new realities of the modern workplace; from home, in the office, or both. The challenges are unique, but so are the opportunities to level up, open new doors and build a meaningful career.
It’s been said if you love your job, you’ll never work a day in your life. For the Love of work is a playbook for the modern employee experience, and it’s more relevant than ever as we redefine the way we work in the wake of a pandemic.
Season two expands its focus on the “employee experience” and dives deep into the notion of growth and leadership. Gen Z and Millenials are taking over the workplace and soon, they'll be leading and managing teams of their own. To be successful, they'll need to lean on the right experts who will hand them the right tools to build on the wide skillsets they developed as team members and make a real impact as strong leaders. As told with practical tips and engaging stories, we explore the idea that leadership can come from anywhere.
You’ll hear inspirational and practical advice as well as lessons to help you be your best self at work and beyond. Visit fortheloveofwork.ca for more.

Hybrid. Team. Work.
When companies began designing hybrid workplaces, they came to an unexpected discovery... managers would now be responsible for two employee experiences — remote and in-office. Both at the same time. From one location to another.

The Power of Belonging
Belonging means you feel seen for your unique contributions, connected to your coworkers, and supported in your daily life and career development. Offering a culture of belonging is an increasing priority for companies, and a lot of the responsibility for building it falls to new and middle managers.

Customer Reviews
Super smart podcast
Loved the storytelling. Sonia Kang helps you think about the world of work differently, especially the focus on resiliency.
Where is the input from small businesses owners?
This has the potential to be a great podcast but without the perspective from small business owners it is unfortunately completely one-sided. Not all businesses in Canada are large corporations however operating a small business in Canada is under the same stringent rules as those corporations. The rules always work well for the employee but what is it doing to small business owners? Without them there are less places for an employee to go and work.
