Meet Rachel.
Hi, I'm Rachel Bourne.
My friends also call me RAB.
I'm a licensed architect who has spent 20 years leading innovation, change and systems design, and over 10 as an HR and talent executive in Fortune 500 companies. I've led technology, workforce and workplace transformation, and held senior roles across global talent management, talent acquisition, diversity and inclusion, technology and workplace design.
I started The Shift Show because work is changing faster than most of us can explain it to our teams. Each episode, I sit down with people who are leading that change, and we get honest about what's working, what isn't and what to do next.
*The views I share on The Shift Show are my own. They don't represent the views of my employer, my clients or any organization I'm affiliated with. Guests speak for themselves.
Change is messy.
Yours doesn't have to be.
WHY THE SHOW
WHAT YOU'LL HEAR
THE FINE PRINT
Work is changing fast, and most of us are figuring it out in real time. The show started with a question I kept asking myself: how do you stay ahead of all this without burning out?
So I started asking people who have been through it. CHROs, operators, search partners and leaders who drove a big change and then had to live with the results. Their answers are the show.
If you're leading a team through change, or you're on a team being changed, this is for you.
Conversations with leaders about changes they've actually led, including the parts that went sideways.
Expect AI and how work is changing, explained in plain English. Careers, from landing the next role to learning new skills. Fitting work and the rest of your life together. And the news that affects your work, plus what to do about it.
Listen wherever you get your podcasts, or watch on YouTube.
The Shift Show shares information and opinions for general education and entertainment. It isn't advice directly for a specific individual, and it doesn't replace a doctor, therapist, coach, lawyer or financial advisor who knows your situation.
If you need professional help, please don't wait to bring in an expert. Use what you hear here at your own discretion, and do your own research before you act on it.
