In this episode of EXtra! EXtra! Kiran and Debkanya chat with Dart Lindsley about why work is a product that people buy.

Dart has been challenging existing mental models that see employees as mere 'inputs to production'. Instead, he wants to flip the model to plant the powerful idea that employees are customers who are all 'buying' work to fulfill specific, personal needs. With this as a fundamental truth, companies cannot help but design work differently and in a much better way.

Listen in to hear about how People Experience practitioners, or as he puts it, Work Experience Designers can bring about real systems change to slowly shift age-old workplace ideologies and practices.

If there's just one person Dr. Kalifa Oliver could speak to about your company's Employee Experience strategy, it would be your CFO. Not your CHRO and not the CEO either. For her, it's all about the data and the impact when it comes to EX.

In this episode, Kalifa talks to Tydy's Kiran Menon about why trying to calculate the ROI of HR is the holy grail of international organizational psychology, how doing it wrong can muddy the waters rather than get you further buy-in, and why 'time to hire' is a terrible metric.
