Today'S episode of how to be a better Human is all about work.
It's how we pay the bills, but also how many of us derive purpose and meaning from our days.
It's also where we meet friends and have snacks and little office jokes and joys and frustrations.
Except when it's not when you're working from home and you're isolated and your water cooler conversations are just talking to yourself in the bathroom mirror.
Or maybe you're unemployed or you're a freelancer.
Or maybe you're your own boss and you're not quite sure that the boss has any clue what is going on.
There is a lot of work to be done on work, and this time of uncertainty and transition, it's also an opportunity where we're all being forced to think really consciously about what to change when it comes to how, where, and when we work moving forward.
That is true.
No matter what you do.
If youre looking to improve your current work circumstances or even just looking for any work right now, and a lot of the discussions about the future of work, a lot of those conversations can start to feel kind of abstract and heady and philosophical.
Well, in todays episode, were going to do our best to avoid that.
Author and organizational psychologist David Burkus is joining me.
And were going to focus on what you what you, an actual human being who has to make money somehow, can do.
And were going to talk about clear steps that you can take to shape the future of your own work.
That is on todays episode of how to be a better human.
But first, an ad.
Would it even be a podcast if we didnt have one?
At Radiolab, we love nothing more than nerding out about science, neuroscience, chemistry.
But we do also like to get.
