Show Notes

If remote work is leaving your organization's workforce feeling disconnected, music can help bring them together. In this quick, 8-minute Ruch Riffs podcast, hear from Deborah DeVerna, Chief People Officer for Octave Group, on how music in the workplace engages and connects. Survey data shows that 90 percent of workers perform better with music, so her company has gotten creative by hosting virtual concerts and encouraging employees to share playlists they enjoy. Working with local musicians is one way companies can incorporate music into the workplace culture. Music, she says, has a huge impact on engagement.
