Maintaining a People-First Workplace In Times of Change
September 22, 2022 | 10am PT / 1pm ET
Leading a people-first business, especially after an extended time of uncertainty and change, takes commitment not only from those at the top, but also from the talent and HR professionals tasked with supporting and retaining values-aligned individuals. With a growing expectation that employers be in touch with the issues affecting employees, creating a work environment where individuals can thrive means taking into account employees’ unique needs and motivators at work and beyond.
At this conversation focused on sustaining a people-first, purpose-driven workplace in a changing world, Thembi Machaba, Senior Vice President of Human Resources at Freshpet, will be interviewed by Heather Whaling, President and Founder of Geben Communications, to share her knowledge in leading at a radically human organization. Expanding on how to guide diverse teams to shared success, Thembi will offer approaches to managing the distinct needs of diverse workplaces and how she supports and maintains a values-driven culture, especially given today’s climate.
