Surviving and Thriving Through Change with Ryan Grams

“It doesn’t matter the change, it matters how we respond to it and how we understand the human condition during it.”

In the new hybrid - virtual/in person world, your desk isn’t your desk anymore, it’s your set, it’s your stage. When René first had that realization it was with the help and guidance of Ryan Grams. Our first podcast live guest joins the show to discuss his own pivot during and after the pandemic to fill the void in the new hybrid world.

“The way to overcome disassociation is by replicating as close to possible, the in person experience.”

And that’s just what Ryan has helped René and many others do, recreate the in person experience as closely as possible through the acronym, C.A.L.L. Camera. Audio. Lighting. Location. Listen as Ryan and René break down how they adapted to this new normal, and more broadly how flexibility and focus can help you and your business adapt to any changing circumstances.
