Description
Most corporate advice is written for people who already fit the system. This podcast is for the rest of us.
In each episode, Laurence Paquette explores the hidden rules of corporate life, leadership, and modern work for people who don’t quite fit the mold. Introverts. Neurodivergent professionals. Deep thinkers navigating systems that were never designed for them.
Conversations and reflections on leadership, identity, culture, and building a career that doesn’t cost you yourself.
