Podcast 1293: Employee Experience Design: How to Co-create Work Where People and Organizations Thrive

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with four-time CHRO Dean E. Carter to dismantle the "command and control" ghosts of corporate past and reveal the blueprint for a workplace where people actually want to show up. Drawing from his transformative leadership at iconic brands like Patagonia, Airbnb, and even a "sinking" Sears, Carter explains why the secret to a thriving organization isn't found in a ping-pong table or a snack bar, but in the radical act of designing work with people rather than for them. Whether you are leading a team of ten or ten thousand, this conversation serves as a masterclass on how to bridge the growing trust gap between CEOs and employees by injecting wisdom, wonder, and wit back into the professional experience. 🎯 What Listeners Will Learn - The 11-Word Philosophy: Why the most effective employee experience (EX) boils down to co-creation and mutual value rather than top-down mandates. - The "Titanic" Strategy: How to maintain employee engagement and professional growth even when a company is facing significant business challenges. - Reinventing Community: How to solve the "loneliness epidemic" in a remote-first world using the "Community Captain" model to boost belonging by double digits. - The Double Diamond Framework: A practical, design-thinking approach to discovering the real problems in your workflow before you rush to "deliver" the wrong solutions. - Purpose Alignment: How to ensure a candidate’s personal mission matches the company’s "soul" to prevent cultural burnout.
