    Where we've been and where we're going

    Welcome Back to How People Work. Is “work” just a means to an end, or is it a calling? In this episode, Jordan and Jason explore the cultural shifts redefining the workplace.

Why do older generations view work transactionally—"be thankful you have a job"—while younger ones prioritize purpose over pay? How can businesses balance self-expression and the bottom line? Jason and Jordan also tackle the nuanced pressures of producing results in a modern workforce, fostering empathy, and navigating productive friction. They debate what it means to create value and build a better future of work—while giving everyone the benefit of the doubt. Are you an HR/People Leader interesting in learning more about Fringe?

    What It Means to Have a Good Employee Experience

    In this episode of How People Work, Jordan and Jason define a holistic view of the employee experience.
