Cassandra Worthy is the founder and CEO of Change Enthusiasm Global, and author of the book Change Enthusiasm.

    The world of work is in flux. New technologies like AI tools have altered entire industries in a matter of years or even months in some cases. To adapt to a constantly changing world, traits like consciousness, empathy, integrity, and accountability will prove much more valuable to the organization and employees than specific industry experience. Ginny Clarke is an author, speaker, leadership advisor, and renowned conscious leadership expert. In this episode, she talks about the value of mentorship and the mindset shift leaders need to make to get the best out of their people in a world poised for dramatic change.

    Preparing for Jobs That Don't Exist Yet With Dr. Michelle Weise

    Collaboration, communication, and problem-solving are a few skills you often see pop up in job descriptions, but for years, they have been relegated to "soft skills." They're helpful, but not essential especially compared to experience in a certain role. However, that's changing. As technology is advancing, new jobs are being created every year. And because no one has experience in a job that has yet to exist, one's ability to learn, adapt, and work with others becomes vital to doing that job well. Dr. Michelle Weise is the author of the award-winning "Long Life Learning: Preparing for Jobs That Don't Even Exist Yet." In this episode, she discusses how our careers are poised to change, the human skills that will help employees thrive, and the importance of continuous learning in a continually evolving workplace. *Apologies for the sound quality dip around the 28-minute mark. We don't know what happened there (: RELATED LINK: https://www.workhuman.com/blog/soft-skills-vs-hard-skills/

    Nataly Kogan on Burnout Management and Indulging in the "Unproductive"

    "Our brain loves to tell stories. And usually, these stories about change are negative. They're usually focused on worst-case scenarios. [But] you are the editor of your story. So we can take that in and say, 'Well, that's an interesting story, brain. But let's also imagine what's possible.'" Nataly Kogan is the founder of Happier, Inc., the author of The Awesome Human Journal, and now a returning guest to the How We Work podcast. In this episode, she discusses how she learned to handle dramatic life changes and the daily practice of managing burnout and building emotional resilience.

    Siobhan Murray on the cascading effects of burnout in the workplace

    One of the biggest trends in work and culture over the last five years is burnout. Workhuman® has conducted numerous surveys in that time frame that all suggest or directly point to significant levels of burnout in various industries and occupations and demographics in which it runs rampant. But burnout's effects are not just felt at work, they're felt in the entirety of an employee's life and are a massive detractor to their well-being. Siobhan Murray is a resilience coach, best-selling author of The Burnout Solution, an international speaker, and psychotherapist. In this episode, Siobhan talks about her own experiences with burnout and how they led her to the career she has. She also talks about how burnout and specifically, the cascading effects on families and friends, is wildly overlooked.

    Steven Rogelberg on What Makes 1:1 Meetings Effective

    The manager-direct report relationship is one of the most critical in every workplace. It can make or break the employee experience. What helps make it successful is a consistent check-in cadence for employees to raise concerns or seek support. But beyond frequency, there isn't a lot of training for managers and there's even less research as to what makes them work. Steven Rogelberg is the author of the new book Glad We Met: The Art and Science of 1:1 Meetings, a rare exploration of the recipe for an effective check-in between a manager and direct report. In this episode of How We Work, he explains the responsibilities of managers and direct reports, and ultimately what an effective check-in should look and sound like.
