Some of you may not know this, but I've been writing this blog for over 10 years now, which of course, means that you end up covering a lot of different topics and ideas around leadership. But what it also means is that after a point, you get the urge to shake things up and try something new. It's with this in mind that I'm pleased to share this latest episode of my leadership podcast, “Leadership Biz Cafe” where I inaugurate this brand new feature, Leadership Espresso Shot.

I once worked at a company that desperately wanted to land a spot on one of those well-known “best places to work” lists. If you’re not familiar with the selection process for these high-profile lists, the main thing to know is that many of them rely heavily on anonymous surveys and employee interviews. The idea is to scratch beneath the surface to better understand how employees really feel about their workplace cultures.
