  • The Future of Workplace Flexibility
    Aug 5 2025
    The role of HR has changed drastically in the wake of COVID. Employees no longer want a 9-5, they want more flexibility. With all of the hybrid job options out there, to keep quality, value-driven employees around, you have to keep them satisfied. Similarly, you want your company to be as successful as possible and ensure that all of your goals are met. How does your company meet them in the middle? That’s where a really great Human Resources team comes in. Alex Genetti, Head of People at Enable, has managed HR in the midst of volatility—like a post-COVID world, 400-person growth in less than three years, and expansion to three different countries. She joins us on America Back to Work to discuss the role HR needs to play in the larger business ecosystem.

  • Harnessing Sensor Technology for Smarter Workplaces
    Jul 29 2025
    If you’ve been debating whether your company should be in-person, fully remote, or hybrid, you’re not alone. Even companies that don’t get together in person are finding creative ways to be “together” when they’re not—like collaboration tools, desk sharing, food services, neighborhooding, and more. But how do you measure what’s really working and resonating with your employees? Raghav “Rags” Gupta is no stranger to this question as the president of Butlr, a wireless, anonymous people counting and occupancy sensing platform designed to help HR professionals create better workplaces. He joins Arnette Heintze on this week’s episode of “America Back to Work: Harnessing Sensor Technology for Smarter Workplaces.” Resources: Raghav “Rags” Gupta Butlr Your host, Arnette Heintze About the Show: Sign up for the S2Verify mailing list here so you don’t miss an episode.
