Episode Synopsis

We’re back with new episodes! And today, we’re doing things a little differently. I’ve invited Shira Grife and her boss Sara Rodell to rehash an actual conversation they had, each reflecting on their thoughts and perspectives in the moment. Why would we do that? Because it’s as real as it gets. No theory here, just an actual step-by-step breakdown of Shira deciding to (in her words) “say things I shouldn’t say to my boss” and how Sara reacted in real-time. It’s a master class in empathetic management, packed with actionable advice along the way.P.S. Stay tuned after the closing credits for an extra (conversational) treat. In this episode, we cover:What motivated Shira to start a brave conversation with her boss.How to, as a people manager, create space for brave conversations.Why “what’s best for the company” shouldn’t be your only north star.Tactical ways to support unengaged or burnt out employees.What to consider before embarking on a brave conversation with your boss. CONNECT WITH SHIRA GRIFELinkedInCONNECT WITH SARA RODELLLinkedInLEARN MORE ABOUT LOOP & TIEGifting - Done DifferentlyWhy Loop & TieMORE FROM WANT TO WORK THERESignup For the Weekly NewsletterTraining for the Modern ManagerFree Tools and TemplatesConnect on LinkedIn or InstagramDID YOU LOVE THE EPISODE?If so, I’d love for you to share it with a friend or colleague who shares your passion for building a better world of work!
