“Spirituality definitely belongs in the workplace. Being allowed to bring your full self and your full spirit to the job is where people can be the most productive,” says Lori Saitz, CEO of Zen Rabbit. This week, Lori joins Mike Horne to discuss the impact of health, meditation, and wellness on the workplace. She shares her journey from a shy child to a successful entrepreneur and wellness advocate, emphasizing that employees are not just resources—they’re invaluable assets.
How can business leaders enhance their leadership skills and creativity? Lori explains how simple practices like meditation and gratitude can make a significant difference. She highlights meditation as a cost-effective tool that rewires the brain, enhances focus, and promotes better decision-making by fostering calmness and groundedness. Lori also dispels the myth that meditation is difficult, encouraging its daily integration to boost overall well-being and productivity.
Gratitude, according to Lori, plays a crucial role in the workplace. She references research showing that appreciation leads to increased motivation and productivity among employees. This episode explores the broader implications of these practices, suggesting that true productivity isn’t about time management but about quieting the mental distractions that hinder focus. Lori passionately advocates for a return to people-centric management, where employees’ holistic well-being is prioritized, and they are encouraged to bring their full selves to work.
Quotes
“Going back to what high-performing business leaders are doing, they’re practicing meditation to become more focused, creative, and innovative, and to build better relationships. One of the questions I get asked a lot is, “When’s the best time to meditate?” There really is no best time—it’s whenever it works for you. Personally, I like to do it first thing in the morning because it sets the intention for the day. When you deliberately, intentionally set an intention for the day, you’re setting yourself up for success. That’s essentially what meditation does.” (13:54 | Lori Saitz)
“Spirituality definitely belongs in the workplace. Being allowed to bring your full self and your full spirit to the job is where people can be the most productive.” (17:20 | Lori Saitz)
“The one piece of inspiration I would offer is to refocus on what you have in your life to be grateful for. Our society is so focused on complaining and criticizing, and we don’t need more of that. We need more focus on gratitude and finding it wherever it is.” (21:22 | Lori Saitz)

“Anytime I get to help a lot of professionals and adults in the workplace, it feels like a huge investment in making people’s lives better, which is why I do what I do,” says Dr. Matt Zakreski, a clinical psychologist with extensive experience supporting neurodivergent individuals, including those with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and giftedness. This week, Dr. Matt joins Mike Horne to dive deep into the world of neurodiversity, particularly its impact in the workplace. How can businesses shift their perspective to see employees not just as resources but as invaluable assets? Dr. Matt believes the answer lies in recognizing and celebrating the unique strengths of neurodivergent individuals.
Breaking down the concept of neurodivergence, Dr. Matt explains how different brains develop asynchronously, resulting in distinct challenges and strengths that persist throughout a person’s life. This insight is crucial for HR professionals and organizational leaders aiming to support neurodivergent employees effectively. He advocates for creating inclusive environments that cater to the diverse needs of all employees, ensuring everyone can thrive.
In addition to sharing his expertise, Dr. Matt provides actionable advice for improving the lives of neurodivergent individuals. He suggests modifications to work environments that better suit individual needs, finding roles aligned with one’s strengths, and incorporating passions into daily life—even if they’re not part of the primary job. These strategies are designed to enhance well-being and job satisfaction, making life more fulfilling for neurodivergent individuals.
Quotes:
“The more we learn about neurodivergent people, the more we realize that you don’t just age out of ADHD when you turn 18, right? You don’t stop being gifted when you finish school. It’s a brain you have your whole life, which means that HR professionals are the new battleground, the new front lines when it comes to serving the people I work with. So anytime I get to help a lot of professionals and adults in the workplace, it feels like a huge investment in making people’s lives better, which is why I do what I do.” (02:28 | Matthew Zakreski, PsyD)
“Neurodivergent people can make amazing leaders because they think outside the box. They aren’t constrained by rules.” (09:46 | Matthew Zakreski, PsyD)
“To be the most successful, whether in work, school, or the community, it’s about meeting people where they are and understanding the best way to move them forward.” (12:00 | Matthew Zakreski, PsyD)

“When we think of talent acquisition and talent attraction, there’s an art and science to it,” says Thad Price, CEO of Ready, Set, Hire and Talroo. This week, Thad sits down with Mike Horne to share how businesses can reshape their hiring strategies by tapping into technology and data.
Thad compares talent acquisition to customer acquisition, where branding, metrics, and data play a crucial role in attracting the right candidates. But how can companies use these tools to not just find, but truly connect with top talent? Thad explains that it’s about creating a compelling employer brand, using data to understand what candidates are looking for, and maintaining consistent, transparent communication throughout the hiring process. By doing so, businesses can build trust and foster stronger connections with potential hires.
The episode also explores the idea of “essential workers,” a term that became widely recognized during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thad sheds light on how Ready, Set, Hire, powered by Talroo’s advanced talent-matching platform, simplifies hiring for small to medium-sized businesses. From crafting effective job postings to automating repetitive tasks, the platform leverages AI to create a smooth and efficient candidate experience.
Thad and Mike don’t shy away from discussing the frustrating phenomenon of ghosting in the hiring process. What can be done when candidates and employers alike drop the ball on follow-ups? Thad suggests that improving candidate quality and ensuring quicker, more transparent communication can make a significant difference. He also highlights the importance of retaining employees by offering clear career paths and competitive pay, which in turn helps reduce hiring costs and turnover.
Looking ahead, Thad envisions a future where talent acquisition becomes even more candidate-centric—treating job seekers like consumers and providing a level of service and transparency that meets their expectations.
Quotes
“When we think of talent acquisition and talent attraction, there’s an art and science to it… And through that experience, we have this function that is talent acquisition, which is a lot like customer acquisition.” (04:21 | Thad Price)
“If you think about the idea of attracting talent and recruiting talent, recruiting is a contact sport. It is a sport of connecting with people, having conversations with people, and developing relationships.” (07:52 | Thad Price)
“When we think about the idea of AI, I like to think it gives a lot of our traditional processes a superpower. That superpower allows us to do what we actually love and what we signed up for, which is changing lives and ensuring that recruiters are finding the right talent. This not only changes the job seeker’s life but also helps propel a company to its next generation of growth.” (08:27 | Thad Price)
“I think it’s important to ensure that we are intentional around the connection to job seekers and candidates and treat the candidates as our consumers.” (37:37 | Thad Price)

“If you’re going to compete and be dominant as a business, you need to be known, appreciated, and spoken of for who you are, not for what you do. The exact same rule applies if you are a leader,” says Ken Schmidt, renowned executive advisor and speaker, pivotal in Harley-Davidson’s 1990s turnaround. This week, he joins Mike Horne to share insights on leveraging human capital and redefining competition.
Ken recounts how focusing on delighting customers rather than just producing motorcycles revitalized Harley-Davidson, emphasizing a people-first approach. He argues that true competitiveness comes from being known for your identity, not just your actions, and that leaders should be memorable for their human qualities.
He also highlights the importance of making noise in the marketplace to create a distinct presence, as discussed in his book, “Make Some Noise: The Unconventional Road to Dominance.” Ken provides practical advice for leaders to improve competitiveness and foster loyalty through clear, consistent communication about their values and human qualities.
Quotes
“If you’re going to compete and be dominant as a business, you need to be known, appreciated, and spoken of for who you are, not for what you do. The exact same rule applies if you are a leader. You want employees to think of you and know you for your human qualities, the things that make you attractive as a person, because ultimately that’s what builds loyalty and inspires people.” (10:12 | Ken Schmidt)
“To be successful as a competitor, we need to be talked about, respected, and revered. People need to come back to us, like us, trust us, and believe in us. We have to carve this out for ourselves first, establishing a definitive set of markers. What keywords would we want people to use when they talk about us, beyond just being a fine leader and a smart person? What are the human qualities we wish to be remembered for? These are what we need to accentuate when we talk to people.” (24:47 | Ken Schmidt)
“We need to have consistent language. We need to use language that our competitors don’t use. If they talk about product, we won’t. If they talk about quality, we won’t. Instead, we’ll talk about lifestyle, freedom, and individuality. What does that have to do with the product? Why be known for what’s obvious? Instead, we give people clever language and hooks to remember us by and use when they talk about us. Pretty soon, the vernacular and the energy change because people react differently and appreciate that we’re doing it.” (38:07 | Ken Schmidt)
“Let's not focus on serving. Let's concentrate on saying things and saying them in ways that are memorable and repeatable. Because if we're not thinking about it, we're not doing it.” (40:56 | Ken Schmidt)

“Mental strength is the leadership superpower of our time,” says Scott Mautz, a distinguished author, keynote speaker, former Procter & Gamble senior executive, and founder and CEO of Profound Performance. This week, he joins Mike Horne to delve into the essence of leadership and mental strength, offering timely and transformative insights from his latest book, “The Mentally Strong Leader.”
Highlighting six core mental muscles—fortitude, confidence, boldness, decision-making, goal focus, and messaging—Scott reveals the critical components for effective leadership. His journey from managing multi-billion dollar brands at Procter & Gamble to becoming a thought leader in human capital offers a rich perspective on what distinguishes great leaders. Extensive research involving over 3,000 executives underscores the importance of these mental muscles.
Mental strength, Scott argues, transcends emotional intelligence by encompassing a broader range of skills vital for leadership. He also touches on creating meaning in work, a central theme in his earlier book, “Make It Matter.”
In a world where business challenges are constant and complex, understanding and building mental strength can make all the difference. Scott’s insights provide practical strategies and a fresh perspective on what it takes to lead effectively and thrive personally. This episode is an invaluable resource for those looking to navigate and excel in the ever-evolving landscape of leadership.
Quotes
“My first book is called ‘Make It Matter.’ It was about the importance of creating meaning in your work and at your job, and how to go about doing that. I believe that meaning is one of the great motivators of our time. Understanding how to create meaning, a sense of purpose, and a desire for employees to leave a legacy behind was something I was very interested in. That book led me straight into the early work I started doing on mental strength and understanding how mental strength intersects with great leadership, especially in times of adversity.” (04:55 | Scott Mautz)
“Leadership often means it’s no longer about you. It’s about looking at things through the lens of your employees and those around you, helping them to deliver on their goals and the company’s goals by helping them to learn and grow, and helping them to find meaning in their own work. That requires mental strength.” (08:06 | Scott Mautz)
“Mental toughness is a part of mental strength. And now, to get into the next level down definition, mental strength really equates to you exercising and developing six core mental muscles. Those mental muscles are fortitude, confidence, boldness, decision-making, goal focus (your ability to stay focused on the goals and keep your organization focused on those goals), and messaging (your ability to stay positive-minded and engaged, even in the face of negativity, so you’re sending a positive message to the troops).” (13:01 | Scott Mautz)

“‘Lead like a human’ is the concept that you can lead as your true authentic self,” explains Adam Weber, a prominent figure in the HR and leadership space. This week, he joins Mike Horne to discuss the core principles of his book, “Lead Like a Human,” which advocates for authentic leadership and the creation of vibrant, high-performance cultures. Adam emphasizes the importance of “centeredness” in leadership, which involves maintaining practices such as gratitude, self-reflection, and physical well-being to stay grounded amidst the pressures of leadership roles.
They tackle the burnout epidemic plaguing HR leaders, with 98% reportedly experiencing some form of burnout. Adam attributes this to the increasing responsibilities of HR roles without a corresponding increase in resources or autonomy. He suggests that HR leaders often shoulder too much and allow urgent issues to overshadow strategic planning. To combat this, Adam advises HR professionals to invest in proactive measures, particularly in manager training, to reduce the reactive nature of their work.
Adam envisions a future where AI eliminates much of the administrative burden in HR, allowing professionals to focus more on people operations. He is particularly interested in how AI can help evaluate and redefine roles within organizations, facilitate internal mobility, and enhance talent acquisition processes.
This episode of The People Dividend encourages leaders to pause and reflect before making decisions, to cultivate learning outside of their immediate job responsibilities, and to be genuinely present with their teams. By recognizing and nurturing the potential in others, leaders can create a more inclusive and dynamic work environment.
Quotes
“How you show up, how you inspire people, how you create clarity, and how you create safety for others—these are the foundations that create cultures that are innovative, motivated, and achieve great things, that people tell stories about for the rest of their careers.” (04:12 | Adam Weber)
“What are the practices you put in place in your life that allow you to show up in a calm and steady way, that create consistent responses from your team, and help you face challenges with perspective? It’s concepts like that, I think, that really help separate some of the best leaders from the rest.” (10:00 | Adam Weber)
“What great leaders do is they see potential in others and instead of trying to take it all for themselves, they figure out ways to unlock that potential in other people and that is such a gift to give to another person, to sit with them, to see what they’re great at, to help them see it themselves, and then to watch them thrive. It’s a really beautiful thing to do for someone else. (35:12 | Adam Weber)

Quotes
“We decided to change the definition of generosity and made it really simple: it’s any act of kindness or support given with no expectation of exchange or return from the recipient. There are limitless ways to be generous. It doesn’t require a grand act or a huge change in your daily life, but it does require intention and thoughtfulness.” (08:08 | Dr. Nicole F. Roberts)
“One of the things we found that generous leaders do in the business world is genuinely care about the people they work with and mentor them… For leaders to take their wisdom, knowledge, passion, and purpose and share them with others, it changes the way people view, respect, interact, work with, and work for you. Whether it’s your personal mission or your corporate mission, people who believe in it will always work harder because they are tied to the work they’re doing. It’s not just a paycheck.” (14:45 | Dr. Nicole F. Roberts)
“When we’re generous, neurologically, it improves so many things in our brains and in our bodies. It improves our cognitive function, our empathy, our emotional well-being, and our ability to connect with those around us. It actually improves our memory and our emotional regulation. By doing kind things for others and being generous, we activate pleasure centers in our brain and release feel-good hormones like dopamine and oxytocin. This reduces our stress and anxiety. So, what starts up here in your brain cascades all the way through your body.” (17:29 | Dr. Nicole F. Roberts)

Quotes
“At its very core, DEI work could mean some really good things for a lot of folks who simply haven’t had the opportunities in the past. That’s my personal take on it. But from a professional vantage point, I see it as being the next evolution.” (05:12 | Rhonda Moret)
“It’s always been about ‘How do we connect people?’ It’s not like, ‘Oh, we want to give this group this and provide that group this other benefit.’ No, it’s ‘How do we create a much more equitable and inclusive workplace?’ And somewhere along the way, we kind of got off track.” (11:56 | Rhonda Moret)
“How do we make sure that as leaders, we are prepared to lead a workforce that may look different than I do or may look different than the person next door? Those leaders need to be inclusive leaders and have the skills and the competency to be able to be effective in that role.” (14:39 | Rhonda Moret)
“Diversity is not simply along color lines and a black-white issue, but it covers all of us. So, whether we’re women, whether we’re an older demographic, so on and so forth. So, it really is looking at the totality of these diversity dimensions and finding ways to accommodate people to your point so that they feel like they can show up authentically at the workplace and be prepared to do their best work.” (21:55 | Rhonda Moret)

“If I’m focused on how I want to feel, then I want to bring that feeling of aliveness into wherever I’m going to be,” explains Jack Craven, author of “Aliveness Mindset: Lead and Live with More Passion, Purpose, and Joy.” Jack, whose career has ranged from trial lawyer to CEO and now executive coach, shares his journey of discovering fulfillment beyond conventional success.
In this episode, Jack explains the aliveness mindset, a framework he developed to help leaders infuse their lives with passion, purpose, and joy. He emphasizes the importance of authenticity and how embracing one’s true self can catalyze positive change.
Listeners gain practical insights on integrating the aliveness mindset into their organizations and daily lives. Jack advocates for small but impactful practices, such as fostering authenticity and using technology to stay connected to desired feelings. His actionable advice and personal anecdotes make this episode a must-listen for those seeking to bring more aliveness, passion, purpose, and joy into their leadership style and organizational culture.
Quotes
“What really became an awakening for me is that when I was leading the family business, I was orienting my days based on my calendar and what meetings were on there. And then the meetings themselves weren’t as meaningful. And so I realized that the way I was orienting my life, which is I was trying to derive happiness from my schedule, wasn’t really fulfilling me passionately and fulfilling my purpose.” (06:19 | Jack Craven)
“What I decided to do was to orient my day with how I want to feel today, and that becomes the priority. If I’m focused on how I want to feel, then I want to bring that feeling of aliveness into wherever I’m going to be.” (06:48 | Jack Craven)
“People can sense sincerity. People can sense authenticity. If you’re able to be authentic, the other traits like ownership, openness, awareness, courage, tenacity, and love will flow naturally.” (08:03 | Jack Craven)
“What makes me qualified to speak about [authenticity] is that for 50 years, I was not authentic. And I knew that there was an internal conflict going on. I think what was leading me was a desire to live up to the expectations of others, of not wanting to disappoint anyone. And when you’re doing that, it has great intention, but somewhere along the way you lose what you really want. And over time when we don’t tune into our own wants and satisfy those wants, we lose our passion. We lose our energy. We lose our meaning.” (08:54 | Jack Craven)

Transformative leadership goes beyond emotional intelligence—it requires spiritual intelligence. In this episode, Dr. Yosi Amram, a distinguished psychologist and executive coach, introduces spiritual intelligence as essential for effective leadership. He emphasizes virtues like purpose, service, gratitude, compassion, and integrity, showing how they enhance well-being and leadership.
Dr. Amram’s research with diverse leaders reveals that these qualities are universally valued. He shares personal stories, illustrating how spiritually intelligent leadership infuses daily interactions with meaning, presence, and wisdom. True leadership, he argues, starts with self-leadership and aligning with inner values.
Dr. Amram offers practical advice for maintaining spiritual intelligence amid external pressures, focusing on long-term goals, and building resilience. He highlights the benefits of spiritually intelligent leadership, including higher team commitment and better morale.
This episode is a call to redefine leadership by grounding it in deeper values, promoting a humane and inspired approach to business and personal development.
Quotes
“Alignment means to live in integrity. We have to be in contact with our essence, with our spirit, because when we’re not aligned, then we’re divided. And that means we lose our power. So when we’re out of integrity with ourselves, with our spirit, with our core values, we’re actually weakened.” (18:59 | Dr. Yosi Amram)“We’re not talking about spirituality as an experience or as a belief system, but we’re talking about the embodiment of values that have now been validated in the fields of positive psychology and leadership—things like integrity, purpose, meaning, gratitude, and compassion to be very helpful in daily life. So my hope is that in the next 10 or 20 years, spiritual intelligence will be broadly understood as a valuable concept in our daily life, at home, at work, and everything else.” (45:01 | Dr. Yosi Amram)
