S2: EPISODE 1: Breaking Down the ‘Not my Job’ Mentality
In this welcome back episode of the Workplaces That Work podcast, I’m talking about teamwork and collaboration - and the mind-bending concept of treating others how we’d like to be treated! I’m touching on the “That’s not my job" mentality and impact it has on teams, and the need for genuine human connection and empathy to create stronger, more unified teams.
