In this episode, we talk about the following:

Interviews

When interviewing, look for a place aligned with your values, that will challenge you, and where you'll report to someone invested in your growth.
Have a healthy objectivity about your job opportunities.
Behavioral interviews are the norm.
Be prepared with questions about the organization.
Search committees are valuable when they bring a diversity of perspectives, members are present and engaged, and aligned on job definition.

Bad Managers

Maybe they've not been coached?
Anyone can become an effective manager.
They might be missing organizational training.

Culture

It's the set of values, practices, norms, and rituals that makeup where we work.
Toxic cultures tend to have a lack of trust, lack of transparency, and/or inconsistent accountability.
Leaders can help culture by modeling behaviors, creating incentives for others to come along, operationalizing values, and confronting bad actors.
Practice respect and show compassion.

Hybrid v. Remote v. In-Person

Remote/Hybrid present challenges for building camaraderie and holding meetings.
An intentionally handled hybrid setup may be the best.
But there's not enough history or data to conclusively weigh in on this.
