Here's a question: who walked into work recently and said, "I hope I suck at my job today?" I'm hoping the answer is NONE of our Stacker community. And yet, many of us underperform every day. Why? There are so many ways that we can make ourselves smarter, faster, better at our jobs. We shouldn't leave whether we're excellent at our jobs to our boss, and yet, there ARE some things that we and our boss can both do to transform our workplace and make our company better. Today we're joined by the guy who the world's wisest bosses turn to when they're wondering how to get their workforce to work better -- Andrew McAfee. Andrew has picked the lock on why some companies stink when it comes to empowering their team to rock at their goals and others wallow in mediocrity. He tells us the meaningful stories of how some leaders have transformed their workplace on today's show.
But of course, that's not all. In our headline segment, there's good news for people saving for college. The rules have gotten easier? Unfortunately, we don't mean "easier to understand," but just "you can now save more money that helps you also not screw yourself over for financial aid." We'll discuss the secrets you need to know on today's show. You think transforming the workplace is all you need? Now you can also save money on your college costs? Double-whammy!
And yet, we still bring you more. We also throw out the Haven Life Line to a guy wanting to "learn something" from the show (he must not know that Andrew McAfee is bringing it this episode!)...and asks us about putting money into a "donor advised fund." What is that exactly, how does it work, and will it transform your workplace? The answers are: "It's complicated, so you should listen," "It helps you avoid LOTS of taxes," and "No."
There's still SO MUCH MORE! Come join the fun.
