What you do for your employees says everything about you. And yet, it’s not just in offering “a competitive benefits package,” now the real winners are organizations that use those benefits to make meaningful improvements in their employee’s lives. We have a saying at our company, “A benefit isn’t a benefit unless your employee understands it and can use it properly.” My incredible guest @Joshua O’Gara is a fellow Employee Benefits Specialist and employment culture enthusiast and we dive into several key factors behind delivering an elevated benefits experience. We dive into the need for having a benefits strategy and address crucial topics such as the fact that employee financial well-being has hit an all-time low. How can employers support their employees’ overall financial health? What can employers do to support their employee’s mental well-being as much as their physical well-being? As leaders, let’s not just deliver the benefits our employees need, but do so in a manner that lifts them towards a better life!  #employeebenefits #employmentculture #leadership #cultureenthusiasts #culturematters

The future doesn’t negotiate, the future doesn’t cooperate. It will be what it will be, so how can we work to shape it as positively as we can on behalf of our association, stakeholders and industry? This episode’s guest @Jeff De Cagna, is an Association Contrarian, Foresight practitioner, and Executive Adviser of Foresight First, LLC. He and I dig into perhaps one of the most crucial issues for associations to grasp: the duty of Foresight. In order for us to better hear the signals of the future, we’ve got to be able to turn down the noise of the past. What noise from our past, what baggage are we carrying, such as our orthodox beliefs, that prevents us from engaging in the kind of intentional learning that we need to do to better understand where we are going and what we need to become and what we need to do to guide us towards the pathways we must travel. How can boards reclaim their agency to be effective today and set their successors up for years to come? We cover all of this and much more, so enjoy this episode and let’s all strive to be Foresight driven leaders that our future successors need us to be! #associations #leadershipmatters #foresight

If there was one thing we could do to make a difference 2024, what would it be? What if we could nurture the generosity within each person and bring resources for creating change in the world to everyone. That’s something I think we can all get behind, and it also happens to be the very mission of Charitable Impact. My incredible guest John Bromley, the CEO of Charitable Impact, is a two-time TEDx speaker, a Business in Vancouver Forty Under 40 winner whose life mission is facilitating benevolence. He and I enjoyed a fantastic conversation navigating how to help as many people as possible give generously, and rediscover how good it feels to give—and how powerful giving can be—when you do it in an even more intentional and personally meaningful way. See something in the world that needs to change? You can absolutely DO something about it!  Enjoy this episode and let’s all strive to be the change we want to see in the world! #charitablegiving #stewardship #leadershipmatters #bethechange

What if one of the best things an Association could do was to create an environment where “people feel that they can find their peers and feel accepted for who they are.” What if workplaces focused on cultivating employment cultures that valued our differences as much as our commonalities? My guest @Trevor Mitchell, is the Executive Director of MENSA, a unique membership organization, and an incredible leader working tirelessly on the front lines of diversity, equity, inclusion, access and belonging. As organizations and leaders face headwinds and backlash, how can we press forward in a positive manner, build off our past successes, and pivot in the face of pushback?  Maybe it’s not about certain words, but about doing life better? Enjoy this episode to find out how to persevere because this journey is too important!  #perseverance #powerofassociation #diversityequityinclusion #leadershipmatters
