Practical and refreshing, Highly recommended!
A powerful human first leadership podcast with actionable steps.
Thanks for sharing these amazing conversations with thought leaders and experts.
Rahul does a wonderful job of profiling a diverse line up of guests who always have tons of fascinating personal and professional insights. Wonderful show - always a learning experience. Always inspiring.
I found the conversation with John Guaspari to be very informative and engaging—which stands to reason, since Guaspari is an expert when it comes to the topic of engagement. He offered clear, straightforward advice as to how a leader can achieve higher levels of employee engagement, and it was mercifully clear of cant and cliche. The host, Rahul Karan Sharma, deserves high marks for inviting such a knowledgeable guest and so expertly guiding the conversation. Well done!
