Supporting Working Caregivers with Lisa Leighton

4/19/2024
In HRchat episode 702, we consider colleagues who double up as caregivers and ways we can support them. Joseph Fuller's research suggested that 73% of employees are currently juggling caregiving responsibilities in some capacity. However, due to a lack of tracking by employers, the necessary support infrastructure for caregivers is often not available. The result? Each family is left to build its caregiving support system from scratch. This inefficiency and sense of isolation result in massive losses of around $35 billion annually for U.S. businesses due to the failure to adequately support and retain these vital workers! Bill Banham's guest this time is Lisa Leighton, Vice President of Strategic Development at Cariloop Lisa leads new business acquisition and growth strategy, working with employers and partners to extend Cariloop's reach to more employees and their families. She joined the company with more than 20 years in the employee experience industry, partnering with Fortune 500 companies to create HR and Benefits programs and experiences designed to drive attraction and retention.

Cultivating Diversity in the Legal Industry with Juan E. Zúñiga, Rimon Law

2/27/2024
Imagine a legal landscape where diversity isn't just a buzzword, but the bedrock of practice—a scenario where the symphony of different voices shapes the law itself. That's the vision Juan E. Zúñiga, Managing Partner of Rimon Law, brings to the table in our latest discussion. With a bicultural heritage fueling his work in international transactions, Juan illustrates how a background rich in diversity can be a powerhouse of success in the legal industry. As host Bill Banham and Juan unfold the layers of RImon Law's approach, they examine Rimon Law's groundbreaking economic model that champions transparency and equity, a stark contrast to the inner circles of larger firms. Venture further into the heart of the legal world's diversity challenges and triumphs with stories that reveal the stark realities minority and women lawyers face, and the catalytic effect of leadership in cultivating an environment where diversity flourishes. The second chapter of our dialogue shifts focus onto the influence of leadership in promoting diversity in the ranks and the necessity of mentorship for nurturing top-tier talent from underrepresented groups. Listen as Juan confronts head-on the biases remote workers wrestle with in the legal sector - contrasting the traditional emphasis on being physically present with the innovative, remote-first structure that Ramon Law embraced long before the pandemic reshaped the workplace.
