Rich "The HR GUY" Salon returns to share insights from his new book "The One Minute Jerk at Work," revealing how bad behavior erodes confidence, damages morale, and hurts career fulfillment for everyone.

What's the difference between recruiting people with sizzle and attracting them with steak when 73% of CEOs cite talent attraction as their top challenge? Transform your approach from filling positions to magnetizing top performers on this milestone 150th episode of the Work Positive Podcast with Dr. Joey Faucette. Drawing from insights shared on his recent LinkedIn Live event, Dr. Joey reveals five proven strategies that create authentic cultures where the best talent wants to work. Listen as Dr. Joey explores:

☀️ Why thinking future-back creates clarity that attracts visionary talent ☀️ How personality intelligence helps you attract the right cultural fits ☀️ The five C's of trust that naturally draw top performers to your team ☀️ Why results-only work environments break free from time tyranny ☀️ How social capital opens and keeps the front door open for engagement

Dr. Joey transforms how leaders think about talent by proving that authentic "really real" cultures attract naturally while recruitment requires selling people on hoped-for realities.

🔑 Key Insight: "The real deal culture is genuinely magnetized to due north and readily evident to everyone. This 'really real' culture attracts top talent with the steak instead of selling them on the 'hoped for' culture sizzle."

💡 Your DOT (Do One Thing): Choose one of the five strategies and implement the specific challenge this week. Whether it's envisioning your three-year future, assessing your team's personality makeup, or scheduling a purposeful gathering, start where you are.

How do you build a work culture where people go home energized by the value they bring instead of depleted by the day they survived? Transform fear into courage and stress into accomplishment on this episode of the Work Positive Podcast with Dr. Joey Faucette. Jill Schulman, United States Marine Corps veteran, leadership consultant, and author of "The Bravery Effect," reveals how to create well-being within the work itself rather than trying to recover from toxic environments. Listen as Dr. Joey and Jill explore:

☀️ Why accomplishment drives happiness and well-being more than we realize ☀️ How to help people do really hard things while experiencing positive emotions ☀️ Simple ways to create value and feel valued in the flow of daily work ☀️ Why fear paralyzes talented people who otherwise know what to do ☀️ How asking for help accelerates your ability to accomplish brave goals

Jill transforms how leaders think about workplace well-being by proving that the solution isn't more benefits and apps, but helping people accomplish meaningful work that energizes them.

🔑 Key Insight: "I don't want people to go to work feeling like they're gonna suck the life out of me and then I go home depleted. I want them to feel energized by the value that they're bringing so they can go home and have that positive state."

💡 Your DOT (Do One Thing): Think of your most challenging goal right now and be brave enough to ask for help. Find someone who has accomplished something similar and call them for advice. Don't try to figure it out on your own.
