S02E31: Jamie Barlett - Cutting through Bull$shit to Create a Fairer Business World
Manage episode 343530551 series 3267656
Long-gone are the days when cash ruled the world. But many payment-processing companies still aren't set up to look out for the best interests of solo entrepreneurs or even small businesses. Jamie Barlett's company, Polypay, is out to make the system more accessible for businesses of all types and sizes. Meanwhile, she's working to improve the work-life balance for her own employees, ensuring fairness starts from the inside out. In this episode, she talks with Michele about overcoming many of the obstacles and expectations associated with being a "Head B*tch in Charge," including why it's okay to make certain jokes in a professional setting, but not acceptable to call your employees "family" -- or waste a person's time with an unnecessary "Rose All Day" happy hour.
