Quotables:
- 02:50 – “Leaders from CEO to HR need to be more vulnerable in sharing their story and talking about their challenges because it allows others to feel like they can open up in the workforce.”
- 07:18 – “If there’s something in your organization that this person’s unhappy with if you really sit down and listen then you can find a solution that’s not only going to work for that one person but works for the whole group, all your employees.”
