Episode 27 | Employee Centric-Culture and the Future of the
Workforce


Note: this episode contains explicit language.


The Big Themes:


Layoffs at Salesforce: Salesforce recently cut about 10% of
its entire workforce which suggests a big shift in performance
culture. Business leaders are now looking for a culture that is
employee-centric and produces tangible results.

A choice for listeners to make: How do we have a legendary
culture that produces massive results and is a great place
to work?

Women have gained more jobs than men for four months
straight: The Wall Street Journal recently reported that women
now hold 49.8% of all non-farm-related jobs. A massive amount of
"prime-aged men" aged 25-54, are out of work, leading to a
massive hole in the economy.



The Big Quote: "What it means is we need to have a conversation.
What's the society we want to have? What's the work world we want
to have? What's the work culture we want to have? And how do we
create true equality of opportunity, and a meritocracy based on,
you know, what the people who do well do well, because they
produce results, and the people who don't, don't. And we want
equality around access to opportunity based on real meritocracy.
I think, I think... here's what I know, I think we need to have
this discussion."
