What do you do when your talents don't match with your working environment?

This is one of the key questions we explore in this episode with our good friend and returning guest coach, Michael Stafford from The Chapter Coach. Join us for a lively conversation about how our talents often impact our "ideal" work environments; and how a "one-size-fits-all" approach is often ineffective. We also dive into the challenges and opportunities that have reshaped our work environments since the COVID-19 pandemic. You will find practical tips for those who long to be seen and heard, regardless of their physical work location, and for new managers navigating the complexities of managing people across multiple locations and workstyles.  Get ready for a good dose of personal experiences, humor, and data.
