Whether you’re an athlete, an individual, a parent, a leader, or a business, we’ve all been navigating through several different phases of this thing called Covid-19. There was the sudden change, the initial desperate plans, frustrations, adjustments, and innovation, and now, what you might call - the new normal.

It is only now that we can start to look forward. How do we emerge stronger?

Matt's guest is Carmel Galvin, Chief Human Resources Officer for Autodesk. She and Matt take a deep dive into the in-depth approach of Autodesk during this time to create empathy, flexibility, and ongoing transparent communication with their employees and customers.

You'll also learn how they're preparing their thousands of employees to seek success around four important areas: Community, Physical health, Financial support, Purpose

Like any athletic endeavor, achieving any goal comes with patience, perseverance, breaking it down into manageable tasks, being highly resilient, and applying technique over and over again.

The lessons in sport, as always, apply to business and life. To emerge stronger from these uncertain times, prepare yourself to adopt and employ an athletic mindset.
