Tonille Miller on Leaving Soul Sucking Jobs and Building Work That Enriches Your Life
Tonille Miller, founder of the consulting firm EXT - Experience and Transformation, talks with Greg Aden about leaving soul sucking jobs and making work enrich your life.
Tonille shares the why behind her career, watching her mom work jobs she did not like, and the question that has driven her ever since: can work actually add to a person's life instead of draining it. She and Greg dig into leading yourself first, why the leader who has all the answers no longer works, and how curiosity is a skill anyone can practice rather than a trait you are born with. They point to Satya Nadella moving Microsoft from know it alls to learn it alls, and Hubert Joly at Best Buy openly asking his people for help.
The conversation also covers vulnerability and the language Brene Brown gave us for it, asking for help out loud, advocating for yourself instead of waiting to be noticed, and the difference between a purpose statement written for marketing and a purpose actually operationalized inside a company. Tonille has over 15 years as a consultant, I/O psychologist, and organizational strategist, with expertise in change management, employee engagement and retention, culture transformation, hybrid and remote work, leadership development, and DEIB.
