Social Responsibility at Work

1 Creator

The future of work is HERE! We envision a world in which companies exist to better employee experience, not just customer experience because we believe that human-centered workplaces create stronger communities and societies. When you adopt the social responsibility of creating employees that go home happy and create impact in their communities, better outcomes are created — at every level. Social Responsibility at Work is a movement of experts and change makers who are actively creating solutions for this vision, and their message can become a framework for your impact too.

The Conscious Communicator with Kim Clark

Social Responsibility at Work

12/07/22 • 43 min

It seems like we are faced with current and global events that impact us on a weekly basis, which can shake our confidence in our systems. Some employees trust their employer more than they trust their government, so we have an important role to capture those communications. As conscious communicators we have to respond and be that source of truth.

That’s why I am excited to welcome Kim Clark to the podcast today. Kim is Co-author of the Amazon #1 bestseller, "The Conscious Communicator: The Fine Art of Not Saying Stupid Sh*t," She is a Speaker, DEI Strategist, and “Perpetual Learner”

“What is an organization, but a whole bunch of people working towards a common goal?” Kim reminds us that all our business activity is a vessel to achieve greater heights in humanity. We need all of us in order to achieve great things.

We all play a critical role in the DEI efforts of our organization. Let’s make sure to be conscious of our communications to provide a safe space to explore our unconscious biases to ensure a team’s communications are supporting an inclusive environment.

The Power of Vulnerability with Nick Jonsson

Social Responsibility at Work

04/12/23 • 24 min

Being vulnerable at work can help create a more authentic, empathetic, and supportive workplace culture, which can lead to improved productivity, engagement, and overall well-being.

Vulnerability can help create a safe space for open communication. When you share your thoughts, feelings, and concerns, you can facilitate more honest and productive conversations with your colleagues.

My guest today shares personal experiences being vulnerable at work and how he works with executives to be more vulnerable as a competitive advantage in today’s ever-changing market. Nick Jonsson is the Managing Director of EGN who provides a safe haven for members to share their work-related challenges, receive support, and learn from each other.

He is a bestselling author, keynote speaker, podcast host, and award-winning entrepreneur who shares his personal highs and lows in the business world. Throughout his journey, he has learned the power of connection and support.

When you allow yourself to be vulnerable, you're showing your authentic self, and that can help build trust with your colleagues. It can also encourage them to open up and share their own vulnerabilities, further strengthening trust and relationships...which is good for business.

Thanks, as always, for tuning in to our podcast.

Impact Hiring with Kim Kelley

Social Responsibility at Work

11/24/21 • 26 min

On this episode, I’m joined by Kim Kelley, co-founder and CEO of Pepelwerk, a technology company designed to help close the gap between social impact and business needs allowing companies to proactively source, upskill, reskill and hire talent. Offering a job is one of the most meaningful and impactful things that a company can do, so Kim and I discuss the importance impact centered recruiting can have on the organization, employees and the community. Here’s what you’ll learn about in this episode: Why hiring on educational or technical skills alone will leave you unprepared to help your company grow and thrive in this new era of work. How Gen Z is taking the lead and changing the face of the hiring process. The importance of bridging the gap between the new generation of workers and the older generation to transform the future of work. When a resume is an effective tool for recruitment and when it’s not. How corporations can build a talent pipeline and create a diverse and skilled workforce. Learn more about Pepelwerk by going to: https://www.pepelwerk.com/ Inspirational Guest Quotes on this Episode: "If you're doing hiring in the same way, using applications, resumes, job boards, postings, and praying—everything is so reactive. You are going to miss out on the talent of the next generation, you're going to really struggle to help your company grow and thrive...if you can't find a new way to think about how you bring in talent into your organization." "Gen Z is this interesting generation. I'm very optimistic because they really hold employers accountable. They're asking what is your connection with corporate responsibility? What's your purpose? What am I going to get out of this experience? And that's a very different way of thinking." "Stop evaluating 80% of your support roles based on the resume, it's just the worst tool on the planet. It endorses a very skewed and inequitable working world. When you think about what a resume is, it's a documentation of who gave you opportunities to do what. It is not a piece of documentation that says, I am capable of doing all that you're asking of doing—totally separate questions." "Resumes—please walk away from them." --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/humanlypossible/support
