All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett

Workers are lonelier than ever and it’s not because of COVID. According to Steven Van Cohen, the absence of connection began way before the term pandemic entered the national conversation. Steven co-authored the book “Connectable: How Leaders Can Move from Isolated to All In” a book focusing on loneliness in the workplace. According to Steven’s research, Generation Z is the loneliest generation, because they are the busiest. Steven says its time for companies to get past the professional growth and start focusing on the personal growth of their employees. How should companies do this? Listen to this episode of All Business of Jeffrey Hayzlett to find out.

Wrapping up Women’s History month, we go back to the archives for our conversation earlier this year with Brittany Fuisz the founder and CEO of Malibu Mylk.

A small, tasty change can make a huge difference in your health. It’s not only a mantra for today’s guest — Brittany Fuisz used it as the foundation of her business, Malibu Mylk. Brittany wanted to get pregnant and wasn’t having any luck. After her doctor recommended an elimination diet, she began researching the ingredients of popular milk alternatives. Not only did she find out they weren’t healthy but discovered the damage nut and oat milks were doing to the environment. Brittany leaned on her culinary degree and got to work. Her research led her to flax seed. During the conversation, Brittany told Jeffrey how the company started, why flax, and how pivoting during the pandemic inspired a new product line. Brittany calls Malibu Mylk’s new drinks “the number one way to go number two.” If you’re intrigued, listen to this episode of “All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett.”

There’s a “quiet revolution” happening in businesses of all sizes according to today’s guests. Employees now realize they have a voice and aren’t satisfied with “classic industrialized working environments.” But what do employees want? A company that does good, according to Mark Babbitt and Chris Edmonds. They recently co-authored the book, “Good Comes First: How Today’s Leaders Create an Uncompromising Company Culture that Doesn’t Suck.” Mark and Chris say company culture was mostly ignored by past generations, but it’s important to millennials and Gen Z. If bosses don’t create a culture employees value, younger workers will leave, and not think twice about it. They add, younger workers’ behavior is making an impression with other workers, who are more willing to leave bad culture as well. So, how do you build a good culture? Chris and Mark have some ideas. You’ll have to listen to this episode and find out.
