Introduction to the Reimagined Workforce podcast
In this episode, I explain my reasons for creating this podcast and sharing it publicly.
Essentially, I hope people feel energised and inspired by others who are willing to share their stories.
Over this first 10 episodes, I hope to bring your stories from people who are making a meaningful impact through workforce transformation across a range of organisations and industries. We will explore the common challenges and the ways they might be solved. I hope this provides people with new insights, energy and inspiration that I receive from these conversations.
If you are or want to be part of creating a better future, then I will do my very best to connect you with the masters. People I admire who are willing to share their stories. So that we might all learn from each other and collaboratively find solutions that don’t exist yet to drive the innovations we need to not just ride out this perfect storm, but to thrive in it.
