As organizations went through an immense amount of change in 2020, there were leaders who stood out because they found innovative ways to connect with their workforce. I talked to many of those leaders and am sharing highlights in this first Ruch Riffs podcast of 2021. Seven leaders reveal seven ways they differentiated their organizations through reinvention, humanness, empathy and purpose -- all in seven minutes. I believe their message of connectedness will be even more important this year as leaders adapt to new norms. I found these leaders inspirational and hope you do too.
