It’s no secret that the pandemic was a catalyst for the shift that hit everyone’s workplace plans. It ripped back the crumbling facade of a connection between people and work that was accepted for nearly two centuries. But Dr. Marie Gervais believes our “idea of work has become disconnected from what it means to be human” and that is about to change. The pandemic awakened a sleeping giant and today’s workforce is demanding employers take a more holistic approach to work.

Dr. Marie Gervais is our guest this week and will help us rethink destructive workplace cultural assumptions and reimagine how better and different management skills can put humanity back into work. Her new book “The Spirit of Work” was just released.

Dr.Gervais holds a PhD in Culture and Learning in the Workplace. Through her work in leadership training, she has coached more than 500 supervisors, managers, and business owners for career and business success. She hosts the Culture and Leadership Connections podcast, which features interviews with diverse leaders in a variety of professions.
