WINNING THE GAME OF WORK

BEATS WORKING is a platform dedicated to changing the way people look at work – not just as a means to an end but as a source of purpose and fulfillment. As a game!

[game: activity engaged in for diversion or amusement]

The BEATS WORKING show is our flagship podcast, designed to explore the many facets of modern work and inspire listeners to redeem work alongside us.

We believe a key component of winning the game of work is sharing what you’ve learned with others. In each episode, award-winning host Mark Wright shares stories of people who are winning the game of work. We’ll uncover their strategies for setting and achieving goals, building strong relationships, and developing their skills to thrive in the workplace.

Our team of world-class contributors – who also lead through learning – bring decades of experience combined with practical applications designed to help you experience work how it should be – as a game that brings fun, purpose, and gratification.

Join us and see if you agree – that work is the most honorable act in the universe. By applying what we learn together, we can give work a new sense of purpose and meaning – and help you win at the game of work, too.

Whether you’re just starting your career or looking to take your work to the next level, we’re here to help. Tune in – let’s redeem work together.
