The Rutledge Perspective Podcast

Welcome to The Rutledge Perspective Podcast where we help you get out of your rut or talk you back off the ledge. Surviving corporate America, or any career choice for that matter, is not easy; but it is doable with the right tools and insights. Using my expertise in human resources and consulting, I have curated content to address challenges that arise in the career and leadership space. We will discuss topics like knowing who is really in your corner, having the courage to speak out when something just isn’t right, investing in your own development with or without corporate sponsorship, choosing your words carefully and many other topics. I will also interview some interesting regular people who have made it through successfully. Life is way too amazing to be stuck in confusion and misery! Subscribe to the podcast, give us a rating, send me some comments (I really do use them for the development and improvement of content). Thank you for listening!

There is a desire to know our roots to get grounded in our “belonging.” And there is so much strength in that – and a little bit of trepidation because you never know what you will find when you digging for information. But our strength comes from the stories of survival and triumph that permeate our histories. We...
