Sal Silvester on the Future of Leadership

Future of Work: The Past Impacts the Future

The way employees were treated during the COVID matters. The organizations that truly cared about their employees and responded with initiatives to help them during this difficult time are being rewarded with loyalty. Others are already seeing some of their most valuable talent walk out the door. Flexibility, tolerance, and inclusion will be key leadership skills, impacting levels of engagement and attrition as employees adapt to the hybrid workplace over the next year. 

In this episode, Sal Silvester connects with Mary Hassett, Chief Human Resources Officer at Lam Research, a global semiconductor company with over 12,000 employees. Mary shares her insights into collaboration, inclusion, empathy, and the Future of Work.

Emerge Stronger - Season 3 Closer

Season 3 was focused on the topic of resilience, given the challenges of COVID over the previous 12 months.

Little did we know how important that topic would continue to be - and not just because of COVID. In less than three months we would face other challenges too - a divisive political environment, the storming on the capital in January, the racially motivated shootings in Atlanta and the mass shooting in my home town of Boulder, Colorado.

In this last episode we'll bring you back to some of the insights shared throughout the season and during this very difficult time in our human history.
