First hour: Looking for integrity in the boardroom, capitol, church, and ballpark

Second hour: Work culture, life balance, and lessons from the NYT story on Amazon

We're focusing on integrity and values-based leadership, which might sound nebulous at first glance. But a team of local business and retired military leaders is concerned about the lack of values-based leadership just about everywhere: the board room, the church, the ballpark, the political arena. How to change that? They'll explain their approach. Our guests:

Carin Cole, assistant dean of the Simon School at the University of Rochester
John Batiste, retired U.S. Army Major General and co-founder of Level Five Associates
Robert Mixon, retired U.S. Army Major General and co-founder of Level Five Associates

Then: Let's talk about work culture. About work-life balance. About pushing employees without breaking them. Those subjects have been on the minds of many after the New York Times published a long piece examining the work culture inside Amazon. We'll sit down with local executives to talk about what they expect of their employees, and how they approach the question of balance. Guests TBA.
