Tweetable Moments:

02:26 - "I think one of the trends that we continue to see is this growing level of transparency in the workplace, which can be a really good thing and a really challenging and hard thing all at the same time." 05:29 - "The interesting thing about authenticity, and closely related, is vulnerability.
