S01E27 – How to Rethink and Re-Energize Your Communication

The meetings grind and distraction-ridden environments we’ve created for ourselves can lead to bad tendencies, hollow statements and communication breakdowns. But if we retrain to be more mindful, intentional and vulnerable, we can see work in a whole new light. There’s power in listening—not just hearing—and connecting with the people around you more genuinely. This week, we discuss becoming a better leader by forming new communication habits and bringing our best selves to work.



Throughout the last decade, a significant movement has become more prevalent within the business world. An initiative that places a greater emphasis on people over profit; more organizations are embracing their passion for impact in an effort to leave the world in a better state from which they found it. Entities such as Ben and Jerry’s, Tom’s Shoes, Warby Parker, Patagonia, and many more are thriving with purpose at the wheel. What implications does this hold for marketplace opportunity? What internal and external challenges do these companies face when shifting their primary trajectory towards doing good in the world? Is there merit in the common stigma of organizations needing to be a nonprofit to place focus on impact and change? These and questions of the same vein are what Graham and Andrew seek to uncover. By sitting with entrepreneurs, founders, CEOs, executives, and visionaries who are walking the walk, the two have the opportunity to seek out how this movement is changing the way business is being done across the globe.
