Description

This week, I'm joined by Donald (DK) Knight, SVP of People & Culture at Warner Bros. Discovery.


Donald has had a varied career, working in senior HR and people roles and serving as a venture partner and advisor for Valor VC, PeopleTech Partners, and Lattice.


We had great fun discussing various topics related to company culture, wellbeing, and the skills you need to build a fulfilling work/life. You'll enjoy this.


TALKING POINTS:


  • The importance of mental fitness in the workplace and why it's a growing challenge.
  • How leaders can cultivate positive cultures in which employees are able to express who they are.
  • The difference between assimilation and authenticity in leadership, and why acclimation matters more.
  • How the next generation is changing norms for the better.
  • Tips on where to focus your time and energy.
