The Corporate Bartender

What's up everyone and welcome to The Corporate Bartender!

Have you ever had a leader who "wasn't like you?" You just didn't vibe, and work was harder than it needed to be? Have you ever BEEN that leader? If either of those apply, you're in the right spot.

We've got Kelly McDonald on the program. Don't know Kelly? We've got ya covered!

She's a CEO, sought-after keynote speaker, and the author of four best selling books on customer experience, marketing, and leadership. She's known as the "not like you" girl, as all of her books are written from this perspective. Today we get into her book, "How to Work With and Lead People Not Like You."

This was an amazing conversation, and I think you're gonna dig it!
If you want to skip straight to the interview, 5:26 is your spot!

What is The Corporate Bartender?

So, what is TCB?

In these crazy days, I felt like we could all use some support, some community, some innovative people-side-of-the-business ideas, and of course, some cocktails. What started as a response to COVID19 has evolved into something much more meaningful. It's become an amazing community of people leaders from various industries who have come together to share ideas, some best practices, to learn from our mistakes, and build connection with others who are facing similar issues.

We are all about sharing at TCB. We share Learning & Development tools. We share updates to the legal landscape. We talk about issues facing our employees and our leadership teams. We interview innovative People Leaders who have cutting edge ideas. Oh, and we laugh. A lot!

I know what you're thinking. What is this thing? Is it another Zoom meeting? Is it a Podcast? Is it a show? What in the world am I getting into? It's all of those things and none of those things. Think of it as a podcast with a live interactive audience. It's a community. It's a forum for ideas, meeting similar folks, and finding a little bastion of sanity in an exceedingly complex world. It's a breath of fresh air, and a respite from your grueling schedule - where you'll be in great company, and probably take away a few things that you can use at work...and in life each episode.

If you are an HR or People Leader in your organization, this is the place for you. You are welcome here!
