Workplace culture doesn’t come from a slide deck (gross)...it comes from people. Vibemakers is a podcast for the ones shaping the experience of work from the inside out: the HR & people ops folk, founders, leaders, and misfits building culture through small bets, big beliefs, and a whole lot of trial and error. Hosted by Marnie Robbins of Vibe People Studio, each episode features a candid conversation with a culture activator, someone rolling up their sleeves to make work more human, meaningful, and aligned. We go beyond best practices and talk about what actually works (and what doesn’t) when you’re trying to create a workplace people want to be part of. No fluff. Well, maybe a little fluff. But mainly just the real stuff behind the vibe. Learn more at: www.vibepeoplestudio.comAll rights reserved by WRKdefined Ciencias Sociales Economía Gestión Gestión y Liderazgo

  • How to Be an All-In Manager: Building Cultures of Safety, Candor, and Care
    Nov 10 2025
    In this episode of VibeMakers: Conversations with Culture Activators, I sit down with my friend and mentor, Ali Merchant, author of The All-In Manager, to explore how great leaders create cultures where people feel safe to speak up, disagree, and stay curious. Ali has spent decades leading and coaching managers across the world’s biggest brands. His leadership philosophy is simple but radical: safety creates voice, voice creates value, and value drives performance. We dig into: 💬 Why psychological safety is the foundation for voice and innovation 🧩 How to move from command and control to care and connect 💡 The Pixar-inspired “rules of candor” exercise any team can use in 20 minutes ⚡ Why resistance isn’t defiance—it’s data (and how to use it to fuel change) ❤️ The difference between tough love and true care in leadership 🔥 How burnout signals a cultural problem, not a personal weakness Ali shares practical frameworks for turning discomfort into dialogue and dissent into innovation. He challenges leaders to “farm for dissent,” seek opposing views, and treat resistance as a cultural health indicator, not a threat. If you’ve ever wrestled with how to make feedback feel safe, how to manage conflict without chaos, or how to spot burnout before it’s too late—this episode is your playbook for leading all in. 📘 Learn more or grab the book at allinmanager.com 👉 Follow Ali on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alimerchant/

  • Culture, Tricksters, and Tricky Times with Jitske Kramer
    Oct 7 2025
    What if the stories we tell (and the ones we don’t) are shaping our workplaces more than we realize? In this episode of VibeMakers, Marnie sits down with globally renowned corporate anthropologist and bestselling author Jitske Kramer to explore how culture is created, broken, and rebuilt, especially in the messy, uncertain middle we call tricky times. From voodoo priests in Togo to startup teams in Amsterdam, Jitske brings her deep fieldwork and sharp perspective to questions like: 🌀 What is liminal space, and why are so many organizations stuck there? 📜 How have we accidentally turned growth into a cultural obsession…and what’s the cost? 🧙‍♀️ Who really holds the “soul” of the tribe, and how do modern shamans show up in the workplace? 🎭 What happens when we put tricksters in charge instead of letting them challenge power from the outside? This conversation is a powerful wake-up call for anyone building cultures of belonging, leading through change, or navigating the tension between ambition and sustainability. 📚 Grab your copy of Tricky Times 🔗 Connect with Jitske 📝 Follow Jitske’s work on Substack
