I bet it has nothing to do with tigers or Nazi propaganda. In this bonus episode we talk about a Henry Ford rabbit hole of discovery I went down after reading the headline, "108 Years Ago, Ford Doubled Employee Wages Overnight: The Business Case for Higher Pay." (After listening to today's episode, I'd love to hear your funny submissions for what you think the title should have been instead) Is that really what happened? Let's explore!

Internal Customer Handbook: A Work Culture Podcast for People LeadersBONUS: The Case Against the Business CaseIs the purpose of engaging in rest, joy, and play just so we can be more productive?

Internal Customer Handbook: A Work Culture Podcast for People LeadersBONUS: The History of Work, a sneak peekOn a dog walk a couple of weeks ago (which is where I get some of my best ideas, other than the shower.

Internal Customer Handbook: A Work Culture Podcast for People LeadersBONUS Episode: Us vs ThemToday's episode was originally an article that I published on Thrive Global called "Us vs Them: Reimagining a Successful Workplace."
