The bonds that tie your community together can have a major influence in your success. Knowing who your neighbours are, authentically, and what motivates them can help to strengthen those bonds. And when people, workplaces, and communities allow for that authentic connection, you are empowered to find your right fit.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why it’s important for communities to work together, especially if you live in a rural and remote region
• How understanding your motivation (and the motivation of your team and colleagues) can significantly improve your workplace
• What it means to allow for authenticity in the workplace in order to ensure strong fit
