[S5E9] Rebel With a Cause (ft. Dr. Tracy G. Crump)
As society continues to grapple with our relationship to work, many of the tried and true norms continue to fall into question, particularly by Millenials and Gen Z. This rebellion is at best misunderstood and at worst, misdiagnosed. The Access Point hosts Drs. Lonnie & Wendy welcome special guest Dr. Tracy G. Crump to discuss further. Discussion Insights: What are some universal truths about the current world of work we should all understand? How do non-cognitive skills help us navigate the realities of work? Is there a correlation between purpose at work and rebellion? How do you develop a plan for you life so you aren't a rebel without a cause? Connect with Dr. Edmonds & Dr. Morris on LinkedIn.

[S5E8] The Myth of Meritocracy: Performance Reviews (ft. Rasháanda Cook)
Capitalism would have you believe that hard work is the only requirement for success. If you work hard, you reap the reward. If that's the case, why are performance reviews so chaotic ... after all, you did put in the hard work! The Access Point hosts Drs. Lonnie & Wendy welcome special guest Rasháanda Cook to discuss further. Discussion Insight: What is meritocracy? What are the conditions that make it work as described? Why do performance evaluations suck so much? What are the biases in performance reviews that we need to look out for as Black and brown folk at work?

Discussion Insights: How to spot manipulation, gaslighting and other coercive communications techniques used at work?
