hbr.org/2022/01/how-companie… If tech will make things redundant, why not replace things we don’t like—overly matrixed coordination, red tape bureaucratic processes, command-and-control decision-making — vs those we do (human colleagues)?" @yanche @corp_rebels @HarvardBiz @HarvardHBS

Such a pleasure to have joined @KellyCNBC on @CNBCTheExchange as we talked about 'The Great Resignation' and 'The Great Attraction' -- and how a human-centric (versus organization-centric) approach to career "progress" might address it. cnb.cx/3zeKM0m
