This week Stephynie is speaking with Jay Fulcher. Jay is the CEO of Zenefits an award-winning people Ops platform. He is one of the first people Stephynie goes to for advice, especially when it comes to running a global business.
Jay has run two other companies Ooyala and Agile software and is the author of the book, People Operations, which explains how leaders can stop spending so much time on HR paperwork and truly focus on "People Work."
Jay and Stephynie dive into great resignation and what he's doing as a leader to prevent burnout and build a resilient company. They also discuss people claiming to be expert online coaches and how not to participate in any of that noise. Jay has so much knowledge to share, and Stephynie hopes you all enjoy this conversation as much as she did.
