You’ve heard me say this many times: no one shows up to work thinking, “I want to suck today.” As we know, underperformance is usually a symptom of a larger issue, such as a lack of time or training. It’s also true that sometimes, the type of work is emotionally draining, and it’s our responsibility as leaders to provide the tools and knowledge to help our teams avoid burning out.
But what does that look like in one of the saddest industries out there: the funeral industry?
This week, I’m sitting down with Hamza Khan and Cameron Allahverdi of GetUrns.com. The funeral urn business is a family one for Hamza, whose grandfather started making urns in 1967; now, Hamza and his father run Love Urns, LLC as a wholesale distributor to funeral homes. Cameron is a fulfillment guru, who happened to pick up an after-hours phone call from Hamza one night, who was seeking assistance with timely delivery. The rest is history in the making. Now, GetUrns.com brings stylish urns directly to the consumer and is ranked 528 on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies.
On this episode of Best Places to Lead, I’ll be talking with Hamza and Cameron about:
💡 Correcting misinformation and remaining transparent during periods of change or social unrest.
💡 The importance of embracing vulnerability.
💡 Helping your teams achieve happiness and have fun at work.
If your team finds it challenging to remain engaged in an emotionally difficult industry, we invite you to join us and participate in another insightful episode LIVE this coming Thursday at 3:30 PM EST.
