[bittergracedc]

As an employee once, this resonates so much. Now as an employer, we apply and embody these principles in our business to create and foster a culture of transparency.

Thank you for talking about this! There are too many shared stories of misery in the workplace! Great to have an expert like you to advocate for this. Hats off to you!

[evascott]

Rebecca Ahmed : your animated and dynamic presentation makes an important point on job satisfaction, gender wage disparity and employee engagement your knowledge and experience brings real valuable advice

[audreyott]

Wow. It is amazing how many problems in the work place would be solved if companies simply "walked their talk." Great advice!

[kristenkozmary]

Great tips on how to keep employees engaged by being transparent and committed to core values. Open lines of communication, fostering employee growth, and transparency at monthly town halls are some of the ways that my company is “walking the walk” and I’m so thankful for that!

[MD-jgcj]

Unbelievably succinct and incredibly relevant to workplace cultural discussions right now. So important to normalize and socialize this topic! Thank you for this.

[deborahspigner]

These recommendations are spot on. Equity-transparency should drive pay and compensation strategy, win-win!

[DropkickMangan]

No one actually goes into these types of issues - and it's actually so simple. Great stuff Rebecca!

[GavinGoorjian]

This is such a great talk and presents an excellent and exciting model for the future of the workplace. Definitely worth the watch - a great reminder to employees to always know your worth and for employers to show them their worth if they want increased productivity, profits and a positive workplace. The speaker shows with several examples how this virtuous cycle can really revolutionize the workplace for future generations!

Loved this talk. What an interesting and unique take to energize everyone!

[alevsezer-jacobs]

I've been talking about this TEDx Talk for days and it's a good one to delve into. Straightforward and to the point, all recommendations resonate but #3 in particular for me. Creating a win/win (compensation) culture in any organizational structure inevitably benefits both sides of the table. If companies want to recruit and retain top talent, a re-evaluating how the compensation structure is "sold" should be a top priority.

[WIlliamTaylorScott]

Great points, well-delivered, as usual, Rebecca! I’ve always loved your energy, enthusiasm, and overall vibe! Thank you, for sharing and spreading these ideas, stories, and strategies. Leaders who choose to connect with people on a human level, creating emotional connections with each individual team member, will absolutely see just how valuable those people will become to their organizations. Keep going!

[pathpurposepodcast]

Excellent talk on a vital subject. People need to be treated like people and not cogs on a wheel. Trust, respect, and accountability around providing an honest value prop is how companies will retain talent going forward and we an live a more fulfilled life as we continuously grow, learn and develop. Great work, Rebecca!

[katycannon]

Completely agree with this presenter. Insightful take on workplace culture and fair compensation. Well done

[chelseaellisbloch]

Great presentation and very powerful and important information! Love your candidness of being a former disgruntled employee and how that affected your work and having to learn your worth. Straight, honest and to the points!

[rachelharmston]

The future of compensation! Such an innovative and thoughtful conversation. Bye bye to the taboo of comp transparency.

You're a natural born speaker -- great reminders! "I have an amazing mural painted at the employee entrance" So true!!

[janiepalomino]

Great presentation and recommendations!! I totally agree with you on full transparency. I found that with my current employer they are showing the value of pay for performance as well as a career pathing and development. If communicated correctly, compensation education can increase team member engagement. Well done, Rebecca!!
