LONG LENGTH: Short Intro for Podcast

Straight into her talking: 09:40-10:30.

Hello hello everyone (EXCITED AND WITH ENERGY) welcome back to Office Hours. A show about how to make a successful jump from college to young professional life. We know that landing your first job can often be an intimidating, complicated and stressful process, but its not impossible! (UP ENERGRY) And we’re here to help by giving you acccess to some of the brightest minds in business to get their advice for how to build a successful career. Take what you can (short pause), pick what you like and listen for that stroke of brilliance that you can use to help you get hired.

I’m Caroline Radke along with Brett Hummel and on the show today is Katerina Glyptis, Vice President of Franchise Operations at Restaurant Brands International which owns Burger King. As a young child she worked at her family's restaurant growing up and while she doesn't know whether it was a calling back to the restaurant industry or her own passions that led her there, Katerina has made significant impacts at Burger King and at RBI as a whole. Today Katerina walks us through the intricacies and importance of exposing yourself to different environments and stepping out of your comfort zone throughout high school and college as well as her advice into choosing a career path out of college.

BREAK

In the US, only 65% of employees are truly satisfied with their jobs. So why are so many unhappy with their current role? Many factors lead into employees feeling unhappy or discouraged with the work they do, ranging from inadequate management or simply following a career path that you are not passionate about. Unfortunately a direct result of this is that many employees don't feel motivated either and in fact a recent Gallup study showed that only 15% of employees worldwide actually are. However, employee motivation is crucial for an organisation to succeed. When employees are motivated, their commitment, drive, and energy levels improve as a result. Happiness levels increase consequentially as well. When companies do not nurture and monitor employee motivation levels, companies are oftentimes less productive which leads to lower levels of output and ultimately causes them to be unable to achieve important goals.

During our episode today Katerina Glyptis dives into job satisfaction and her experiences with herself and her peers being happy in their roles post-graduation as well as why it so important to find a job where you are satisfied. Katerina herself felt the pressure to go to a prestige job after school coming out of Harvard University, and almost went down a path towards investment banking or consulting. However, as she went to the career fairs and began to explore her options, she was immediately drawn back to her passion – the restaurant industry. Very excited for you to hear exactly how she did it as well as many other interesting viewpoints. Let's get into it....

@carolineradke I like it overall. I think you just need to add a bit more about the macro problem (I like the start of it), you need to add a transition to the bio of Katerina and you need a bit more here too along with a transition.

@carolineradke

overall pretty good. I would add a sentence or two more into the macro idea part about job satisfaction and why it is so important (do you lose out on income, life happiness, etc.)

Second part is I think you need to have a better close. The last sentence feels flat.

Third I want to start the podcast with her talking so I need you go

Fourth (this is an add by me) is to add a quick 12-13 second intro about the person that we insert right after the podcast intro (at the very top). It's a very quick synopsis of the person

@carolineradke Need to redo the audio and cut it into three sections. Also in the third section I took a small bit out. If at all possible if you can make it sound more like a conversational discussion, it still sounds a bit like you are reading it.

@carolineradke Looks good just needs to record the intro.
