What if recognizing employees was as easy and personalized as shopping on Amazon? Join us for an insightful conversation with Steve Sonnenberg, the visionary co-founder and CEO of AwardCo, as he shares his journey to revolutionize employee recognition. Inspired by the traditional methods from his father's career, Steve has crafted a modern recognition system that caters to individual preferences and resonates with today's diverse workforce. Transforming the outdated one-size-fits-all approach, AwardCo offers customizable options that ensure every employee feels appreciated in a way that truly matters to them. Discover how this innovative approach aligns with the expectations of newer generations and prevents anyone from feeling overlooked.

In the quest for nurturing purpose-driven cultures, we examine how companies like Patagonia and Starbucks seamlessly integrate strong values into their operations, attracting and retaining talent even amid the Great Resignation. Steve emphasizes the critical role of authenticity in fostering a vibrant culture, as he illustrates how AwardCo uses social recognition platforms and tools like Slack and Microsoft Teams to highlight value-driven behaviors effortlessly. By incorporating discretionary monetary points, managers can fortify the connection between employee efforts and the organization's mission. This episode promises to provide valuable insights into creating an environment that not only appreciates employees but also imbues their work with meaning and purpose.

Kudos’ Chief Customer Officer Tom Short is an employees-first entrepreneur. In the last 25 years, he has founded several successful companies, all of which have employee experience as their cornerstone. In his current role, he is invested in advocating for employee recognition over rewards — favoring the long term effects of recognition on well-being and motivation over the short term “object perks” of rewards. 

Tom Short is the Founder of Kudos Inc., where he oversees business development, sales and marketing. Tom has founded numerous, highly successful, companies including Idea Machine, which was recognized as one of the top ten interactive agencies in Canada, which he later merged with Rare Method to create the largest independent interactive agency in Western Canada. Under Tom’s direction Rare Method was ranked as one of the fastest growing organizations in the Canada by Profit 100 Magazine several years running and as one of the top 50 small to mid-sized employers in Canada by the Queen's School of Business, Queen’s Centre for Business Venturing and Hewitt Associates.
 
At each organization Tom built, employee engagement was front and center as the key to building effective teams and successful companies. Kudos was the direct result of this philosophy and was a systematic way to build a systemic culture of appreciation. Today Kudos is quickly becoming a leader in social recognition and changing how companies around the world engage their team’s – one thank you at a time!

Projjal founded OnLoop in 2020 to create a category called Collaborative Team Development (CTD) to fundamentally reinvent how hybrid teams are assessed and developed.

Prior to founding OnLoop, Projjal spent three and a half years at Uber in a variety of roles including leading Strategy & Operations for Business Development globally, leading Strategy & Planning for the APAC rides business, and GM of the Philippines rides business. Besides Uber, he also spent some time raising debt and equity from New York hedge funds for an industrials conglomerate (Essar), in strategy consulting in South East Asia (Accenture), and in early stage companies in Latin America (BlueKite, El Market) prior to that.

About Alden

Hi, I’m Alden Mills

I’m going to be your swim buddy—Navy SEAL speak for your teammate. I’m here to help you succeed. There is no greater pleasure that I get than from helping others, their teams, and organizations go beyond what they originally thought was possible.

With over 40 years of success in different environments—sports, military, business, nonprofits, and community action groups—I know the rules for success are universal.

It starts with how you lead yourself and ends with how you serve others.

Principles of Success

These principles of success are what I call the three levels of Unstoppable Leadership. Think of them like ripples radiating from a pebble dropped into a pond’s still waters.

The techniques I share are ones I’ve used throughout my life—from leading Navy SEALs to creating an Inc. 500 company to leading communities to, and most importantly, raising my four boys.

Unresolved workplace conflict wastes time, increases stress, and negatively affects business outcomes. But, Marlene Chism writes, conflict isn’t the problem—mismanagement is. The author, advisor, speaker, coach, and CEO of Marlene Chism Consulting’s new book From Conflict to Courage: How to Stop Avoiding and Start Leading  details how the “three A’s”—aggression, avoidance, and appeasing—are common yet destructive ways humans avoid the emotions triggered by conflict.  

Chism’s book provides exercises, examples, and expert guidance to foster “conflict capacity,” stop workplace drama, and deal fearlessly with difficult issues head-on. Her techniques show leaders how to increase leadership clarity, identify obstacles, and reduce resistance to conflict.  

When leaders see conflict as a teacher, courageously face it, and continually work on transforming themselves, Chism says, they can get the resolution they are seeking and can change minds.

About Marlene 

From Conflict to Courage is Marlene Chism’s fourth leadership book; see her other works here.

She is a seasoned speaker, thought partner, advisor, coach, author, and widely recognized as the leading US authority on stopping workplace drama. She is CEO of Marlene Chism Consulting, which offers a comprehensive suite of consulting services to businesses and leaders. Marlene has a bachelor's degree in communications from Drury University, and a master’s in human resources development from Webster University.  She is an advanced practitioner in Narrative coaching.
