Side Hustles and Work Hours: The conversation also touches on the prevalence of side hustles and how they intersect with primary employment duties, especially in remote settings.
Heart vs. Head Trust: We introduce the concepts of 'heart trust' and 'head trust' and discuss how these forms of trust influence managerial practices and the integration of new work models.
