EP654: HR Huntsman - How To Do Well By Doing The Right Thing

“There is great ROI in treating people with honor and respect and seeing them, helping them feel seen, heard and valued.”

Success in business isn’t just about profit—it’s about impact. The best leaders understand that doing good and doing well go hand in hand. When companies invest in people, foster purpose-driven cultures, and create workplaces where employees feel valued, they don’t just thrive—they leave a lasting legacy. Treating people well isn’t just ethical; it’s the smartest business strategy for growth, retention, and long-term success.

H.R. Huntsman learned this through experience. From a tough childhood to founding a global nonprofit and later coaching business leaders, he realized that real success comes from making life useful. His focus is on building “destination workplaces” where employees feel seen, heard, and motivated to contribute at their highest level.
