Think creating a positive work environment is impossible? Think again. In this episode, I share my personal story from Amazon about the moment I realized I could shape the environment around me, even during chaotic times.
I break down four key strategies that transform toxic workplaces into healthy ones:
· Being unapologetically yourself
· Letting people feel what they need to feel
· Making it safe to fail
· Going beyond just being "kind"
Plus, I share a surprising truth about which employees handle high-pressure situations better (hint: it's not always the "perfect" ones).
Whether you're a leader or individual contributor, you have more power to influence your workplace than you think. Ready to be the change? Listen in.
