I came across this in searching for great content that is nuanced and professional regarding being a hybrid and fully remote computer worker as a paralegal. And meetings that could be shortened to weekly one-on-one, a few people as needed, and no meetings longer than 40 minutes as the research shows; and also no meetings with more than 6 participants. My word search resulted in 3 great episodes and I’ve subscribed. (love the catchy instrumental song at the end too!) 1. Designing an Office Workers actually want to return to 2. How to fix everything that’s wrong with meetings 3. What your company probably got wrong about its return-to-office I’ve subscribed and will recommend to those who are interested! Relevant, well produced content! Hybrid, Remote, Environment, and criticism of out dated models

I found this episode helpful, and especially liked the discussion about including a “Hobby” section at the end, as a way to help telegraph the personality you bring to the table. Having been on both sides of the hiring process, though, I was surprised that there was no mention of the role of ATS… Applicant Tracking Systems. The tips herein presume that your resume is in the hands of a human being, when in fact, these ATS systems can kick qualified applicants out or to the bottom of the candidate pool, never to be seen by a human eye. There’s several articles online about these “Hidden Workers” - untapped talent that never get considered because their resumes are never actually looked at.

Actionable advice and tangible tips for navigating the ever-changing landscape of work, no matter the industry! You’ll also find the inspiration and insight to grow as a human being. Thanks so much for putting out such a spectacular show- keep up the great work!

The New Way We Work quickly became a favorite in my feed. It’s obvious that Kate and the FC team put extraordinary effort into every single episode. I'm consistently impressed by the engaging conversations, insightful content, and actionable ideas. I truly learn something every time I listen!

As a non-millennial, this is a great podcast for leaders as it gives great ideas to consider as we navigate the pandemic. It is slightly offensive that “white men” is used in such a stereotypical fashion of “bad leadership” or “narcissistic behavior”. In fact, this week’s episode used it 5 times. There are exceptional leaders of every race, gender, religion, sexual orientation and political beliefs, likewise there are really bad ones. Leadership has to come from the heart and the brain. Success to me is when I began spending 80% of my time developing and cultivating my employees and 20% of the time working on myself. Contentment comes when you are well-satisfied with the work you’ve done and the legacy left behind.

Kudos to Kate Davis and Dr. Toma Chamorro-Premuzic for one of the best episodes to date. Very interesting and enlightening. Well done! Keep up the good work.

I really loved this show when it was Secrets of the Most Productive People. The new change doesn’t interest me, but I would’ve preferred a spin off show called The New Way We Work instead, and go back to the original topics for the original show. If you want a show similar to the pre-Covid format “How to Be Awesome at Your Job” is a good alternative. I’ll probably listen to old episodes now and again, but definitely unsubscribing and probably not tuning into the new episodes.

Ok you just do one on Donald J Trump!! He’s not even doing anything through the PANDEMIC He does not care about us PS BEST PODCAT :)

This podcast seems to stay on the topics of business and productivity instead of the seemingly 40% of Fast Company articles online that are about anti-capitalist Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity (DIE). I hope they stop with the politically correct authoritarian BS, because it’s not good for anyone’s business. Keep Fast Company a business media outlet. “Get woke, go broke”.

A helpful podcast- especially season one. I hope they return to those topics in the upcoming season.

The hosts are pleasant enough and the titles of the episodes are compelling but it’s very light on content. It seems more like a conversation between friends, with lots of anecdotes and asides but I was hoping for facts, data and expertise.

Shockingly unhelpful, especially coming from fast company. Nothing was new or helpful. I liked the hosts but... next!

Good advice

I appreciate the podcast and love listening to how other top performs get the most out of what they do. For some reason on my phone the audio is never loud enough when I am driving or in a busy area. Other podcasts don’t seem to have this issue. I’m not sure if it’s something that can be fixed, but I’ll continue listening because of the good content, even if I have to rewind every time a truck drives past me. Thank you!

Thank you Kathleen and Anisa for such a useful podcast. I look forward to digging into the back catalog and can’t wait for what you have in store next! Everyone can learn from this podcast and should take a moment to hit “subscribe.”

Love the content, but the ‘mmhmm’ repeated over and over during the guest’s answers distracted me from actually listening to what was being said. Other than that, it was great! Update: This has improved tremendously. Content is great and the interviews are so informative.

Can’t wait for the next episode!

I listen to podcast while I work. I can perform Better when I’m doing something and listening to something interesting. I love the podcast can’t wait for more great shows

I look forward to every episode of this show! It feels like listening to your smartest friends talk about all the little issues everyone deals with at work and then getting expert tips. I can't believe they fit so much in 20 mins. Listening to it is the most productive part of my day!

The hosts have a great rapport and their they offer great advice.

I listened to my first episode this afternoon and ended up sharing it with my team. I really enjoyed listening to their unique perspective and insight!

I thought the hosts were able to fit a lot into a small time segment with out feeling rushed. I’m looking forward to the next podcast.
