Sticky From The Inside is the employee engagement and workplace culture podcast that looks at how to build stickier, competition-smashing, consistently successful organisations, from the inside out.
Each episode I chat with guests from a variety of backgrounds, who share their thoughts, stories, ideas and insights into how you can create a workplace where people love what they do and who they do it for. Where customers get you, love what you do and passionately recommend you to others. That’s what we call a ”Stickier Business”.
