This week, I'm joined by Donald (DK) Knight, SVP of People & Culture at Warner Bros. Discovery.
Donald has had a varied career, working in senior HR and people roles and serving as a venture partner and advisor for Valor VC, PeopleTech Partners, and Lattice.
We had great fun discussing various topics related to company culture, wellbeing, and the skills you need to build a fulfilling work/life. You'll enjoy this.
TALKING POINTS:
- The importance of mental fitness in the workplace and why it's a growing challenge.
- How leaders can cultivate positive cultures in which employees are able to express who they are.
- The difference between assimilation and authenticity in leadership, and why acclimation matters more.
- How the next generation is changing norms for the better.
- Tips on where to focus your time and energy.
