In this Talent Angle podcast, workforce expert and “Undercover Millennial” Clint Pulver shares his unique methodology of “undercover” interviews to understand employees’ workplace experiences. He discusses the impact of underperforming managers on employees — from low engagement to increased attrition. Using qualitative findings from his interviews, he argues that managers and leaders should create moments that lead to solutions and develop mentorship opportunities for themselves and members of their teams. Clint Pulver is a professional keynote speaker and author of “I Love It Here: How Great Leaders Create Organizations Their People Never Want to Leave”. Pulver has worked with corporations to create loyalty through his work and research as the “Undercover Millennial.” He has been featured by BusinessQ Magazine as a “Top 40 Under 40.” In 2020, Pulver won an Emmy Award for his short film “Be a Mr. Jensen,” which tells the story of how a single moment and a particular mentor can change the course of a life. *This episode is an excerpt taken from our 2021 interview.
