Patty McCord

    Patty McCord rethinks how we work, applying Silicon Valley's spirit of innovation to challenge entrenched norms and question the very notion of 'best practices.'

McCord is dedicated to spreading the message that we can fundamentally change workplace cultures, believing that individuals arrive at work as fully formed adults eager to make an impact and take pride in their contributions.
