Good intentions, bad outcomes
A podcast about challenges and practices you might encounter in the workplace... things that were intended well, but have outcomes that aren't so great. In most cases, the organizations aren't even aware of how bad the outcomes are.
Every episode we discuss a situation that has something wrong with it: the what, the why and what can be done to address it.
