Maybe you"ll love it, maybe you won"t. Check it out and let Ken Rusk & I know!  TakeawaysThe idea of "Two Crappy Chairs" is to challenge the elite speaking circuit.The goal is to provide practical, actionable advice for listeners.Creating a positive workplace culture is essential for business success.Employees should feel empowered to voice their ideas and concerns.A toxic work environment often reflects a culture of zero-sum thinking.Understanding what employees want is key to improving culture.Agency in the workplace allows employees to take ownership of their roles.Culture should be defined and assessed regularly within organizations.A win for one should not come at the expense of another.The conversation encourages a cultural revolution in workplaces.
