  • 42. Employee Terminations
    2023/05/12

    The so-called ‘business decision’ to exit employees from your organization could be a positive experience for both you and the employee. With some thoughtful attention to what people need when they are being released from a familiar role in a company they have committed to. Instead, the vast majority of terminations are a cavalier process. That which lacks human connection and allows leaders to avoid accountability for their hiring decisions—and their management responsibilities. Listen in as Debra and Lisa explore why the way terminations are carried out has a profoundly negative impact on the individual, the organizational culture and broader societal attitudes about work and trust in corporations. The good news is that we can do better! In this, lisa and Debra offer their perspectives on how organizations can terminate employees in a way that aligns with their values.

Who are these new and emerging leaders, and what do we think they should be doing? Listen in as Debra and lisa take a step back to look at what workplaces need now and assess if these roles will help make organizations better and healthier for employees.

  • 36. Why Gender Equity Is Good For The Economy With Katica Roy
    2022/10/07

    For far too long, we've been hearing how much less money women make than men. While progress is being made, there is still a long way to go—if we look to the latest report from the 2022 World Economic Forum, post-pandemic, gender parity is not recovering. In fact, it will take another 132 years to close the global gender gap.

    As crises are compounding, women's workforce outcomes are suffering and the risk of global gender parity backsliding further intensifies. In this episode, Debra speaks with Katica Roy, a gender economist who highlights how policy today is mostly gender-ignorant, meaning it doesn’t apply the gender lens to determine how said policies impact men and women differently. As Katica explains, women’s participation in the labour market is good for the economy overall: excluding well educated and trained women from the workforce is a lost opportunity for economic growth. Listen in to learn what's at stake and how we can build momentum towards greater gender parity that benefits us all.

Join Debra Adey and lisa Schmidt as they talk about the August 18, 2022 New York Times article on the Dan Price allegations, and how they reacted when they learned one of the CEOs they once happily retweeted turned out to have a completely different persona than was presented on social media.
