From my curiosity generated by the headline of an op-ed piece in the New York Times titled “The Boss Is Back in Silicon Valley” came the following wide ranging conversation with Carol Schultz, the founder and CEO of Vertical Elevation and author of “Powered By People: How Talent-Centric Organizations Master Recruitment, Retention, and Revenue(and How to Build One)” discussing the changing workplace in America as its most valued sector has employees taking a haircut when it comes to perks and benefits.  We discuss the new hybrid work environment, the great resignation, quiet quitting, the four day work week, labor’s moment because of supply and demand and other buzzwords in the world of work.  It’s a lively discussion sure to find issues you can relate to whether your are a manager or a person being managed.
