Episode 67: Energy at work – your role in the reset: Ashira Gobrin, Chief People & Culture Officer, Wave

How HR Leaders Change the World

09-08-2022 • 33 mins

Ashira discusses her thoughts on how she leads and impacts the energy of her colleagues, driving wellbeing and business performance. Providing fantastic analogies such as the role of a conductor in an orchestra, and the shared feeling of ‘jet lag’ coming out of the pandemic, Ashira describes how you can reflect on and harness your own energy too.

Connecting her passions for people, graphology and neurology, Ashira shares her interests and learning that support her approach to embracing differences, understanding people, and educating – as a person, a parent and at work.

Thinking of HR as being on the front line through the pandemic and into the future, Ashira reminds us that everyone in HR has the tools, skills and energy to influence and impact a new world – at work and beyond.
