Ep 91 | Finding Faith's Role in the Workplace with Mai Moore

What role does faith play at work?

If you’d asked me 15 years ago I’d probably have scolded you for even asking such a crazy question. Keep your faith out of my peanut butter, dammit.

Now? I’m not so sure.

Mai Moore is certain that keeping faith out of the workplace is keeping the suck firmly in place. Mai is the founder of two social impact companies and previously spent 20 years in the tech space.

How can we possibly bring our whole selves to work if we’re ditching this giant piece of ourselves at the door each day? This is personal for Mai, as her faith has helped her through some incredibly tough times, including being homeless.

So how do we bring this topic into the workplace without alienating everyone?

🐱 We need to create space for honest, respectful conversations around faith and spirituality.

🐱 We need to make room for all belief systems, including the lack of belief.

🐱 We need to understand our customers better, many of whom place faith or spirituality at the center of their lives.

We dig into all the nooks and crannies of this and more during our conversation. We touch on the idea of vulnerability at work, lifting up ideas from everyone (not just leaders) and the importance of doing work that makes an impact on something we actually care about.
