Tune in to explore how your daily actions shape the lives around you.

In the rush to mandate full-time office returns, many leaders are ignoring a hard truth: The workforce has fundamentally changed. The quiet, focused environment of remote work rewired our brains—making the noisy, distraction-filled office a productivity killer. Forcing employees back may seem like a win, but at what cost? This episode unpacks the real impact on satisfaction, stress, and the very productivity companies think they’re restoring. Guest: Monica Mitchell.

Trust is the foundation of great leadership—but too often, leaders unknowingly create barriers that weaken connection and impact. In this episode, Russel Lolacher shares how clear leadership definitions, intentional time investment, and trust-driven strategies can transform workplace relationships. We’ll explore the seven roadblocks leaders put in their own way, how to enhance clarity and impact at work, and why time is the most valuable gift we can offer our teams.

Flexibility isn’t just an employee benefit -- it’s a strategic imperative that drives productivity, profitability, and innovation. It’s resisted as an operational standard when leaders mistakenly believe it reduces engagement, innovation, or culture. This conventional thinking limits both the organizational results and the individual potential of the employee. What’s often missing is an actionable framework, which when well implemented, positions your organization as a “Destination Workplace.” Working on Purpose is broadcast live Tuesdays at 6PM ET and Music on W4CY Radio (www.w4cy.com [https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.w4cy.com&d=DwMFaQ&c=BSDicqBQBDjDI9RkVyTcHQ&r=uWCfroI8yhBYdmfU3V980uXFax9-5HwF09v59Wv8CbM&m=HzstcCRybMFoIRSAlzUg5NYgQlsMQMSX31P6w6DcewDEhbGRijbmusHINGCO4wiJ&s=b6rauPY_VIZU1vlCGRtOx-1qk54yAqJZlATk0fEEZaY&e=]) part of Talk 4 Radio (www.talk4radio.com [https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.talk4radio.com&d=DwMFaQ&c=BSDicqBQBDjDI9RkVyTcHQ&r=uWCfroI8yhBYdmfU3V980uXFax9-5HwF09v59Wv8CbM&m=HzstcCRybMFoIRSAlzUg5NYgQlsMQMSX31P6w6DcewDEhbGRijbmusHINGCO4wiJ&s=kfnPLKoMa6NLXakP7s0ZtEbYtQqcNE9_9360pXti1dU&e=]) on the Talk 4 Media Network (www.talk4media.com [https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.talk4media.com&d=DwMFaQ&c=BSDicqBQBDjDI9RkVyTcHQ&r=uWCfroI8yhBYdmfU3V980uXFax9-5HwF09v59Wv8CbM&m=HzstcCRybMFoIRSAlzUg5NYgQlsMQMSX31P6w6DcewDEhbGRijbmusHINGCO4wiJ&s=qV4gZfRYgGoBD-zruDg55Rt9h5kRkmLXQNY8M8Ep29s&e=]).
