Gut+Science explores employee engagement insights you can act on, from CEOs you can trust. Get ready for high energy interviews led by employee engagement evangelist Nikki Lewallenāones thatāll have you rethinking what it means to build successful people-first cultures.
What if the most overlooked group in your workplace holds the key to retention, loyalty, and a truly people-first culture?
Nikki is joined by Paul Sullivan, former New York Times columnist and founder of The Company of Dads. Paul shares the deeply personal story behind his mission to elevate and support “lead dads,” the primary caregivers often overlooked in corporate benefit structures. From the eye-opening stats on caregiving to stories of companies getting it painfully wrong, Paul challenges leaders to rethink how they message and activate the benefits they already offer.
This conversation is a wake-up call and a roadmap for anyone serious about creating workplaces that work for families. If your culture says “family first,” does your messaging and manager training back it up?
