Joined March 2011
We weren’t trained to lead for happiness—we were trained to lead for outcomes. But they’re not mutually exclusive. Happy-ish teams (not fake-happy—seen, respected, not drowning) perform better. Less friction. Fewer pointless meetings. It adds up.

People are sticking with their jobs more, but confidence in the market’s dipping. Gen Z feels safe but isn’t always vibing w/ the #culture. At Alma, we try to keep it real—it’s a journey, not a finish line. Leaning into the gray? That’s where growth lives.

Worker optimism about the job market dropped sharply, marking the steepest decline since 2023 and hitting a record low.

Retention isn’t rocket science, but it ain’t easy either. We try to keep it real—good managers, honest talks, onboarding that matters. Those conversations matter to all of us at @AlmaLasers. It’s a journey, not a quick fix. #Leadership #Retention @Forbes

Hot take: Leadership doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s about doing the simple things—and doing them really well. Show up, follow through, be genuine. #Authenticity + mastering the basics = real leadership. No need for extra fluff. #LeadWithAuthenticity.

Workplace #rituals aren’t just feel-good fluff (though that stuff helps)—they actually boost #connection and performance. At Alma, we keep rituals real, not just checkboxes. Culture’s built on those small, consistent moments that bring us closer every day.

Plenty of research espouses the benefits of team rituals, including boosts in employee performance and motivation. However, most of the existing literature examines simple rituals (like a team...

Engagement hasn't moved in 20 years. New tech, more #perks, same vibes. We’re trying to skip the guesswork and just ask:. Why do you stay?. Turns out, those convos matter way more than the “Employee of the Month” plaque. #engagement

Employers often rely on traditional factors to try to engage and retain workers, but one expert says they need to focus on managers and workplace culture instead.

At @AlmaLasers, we’re trying to keep it real with professional transparency. It’s messy and imperfect but real talk lights a fire. Growth paths that actually help people level up—not just look good on paper. How do you keep your work environment open? #WorkCulture #Transparency.

Culture isn’t built overnight or on one random pizza party (though these are still fun). We try to keep it real at @AlmaLasers—invest in #people, keep the vibe tight, & care where we’re rooted. It’s the little things done every day that make a #team stick.

Retention ≠ raises. It’s growth. Feedback. Feeling #seen. Most folks don’t leave for more money—they leave because no one’s #listening. At @AlmaLasers, we try to listen better. And maybe that’s the whole job.

When did mentorship turn into corporate monotony?. At @AlmaLasers, we’re ditching the script and keeping it real. Showing up human, owning the mess, building culture that makes people care. That’s how you turn a job into a #community. #Leadership #Mentorship.

A lot of folks talk about work-life #balance like it’s a checkbox. We’ve all heard that, right? At Alma, we’re trying to make it feel real—with better #feedback tools and fewer “you’re on your own” vibes. Still #learning, but that’s the goal. @guardian

50 countries prove it: #culture makes the workplace. Ignore it, and confusion grows. Simple moves—right #tools, enough sleep—move the needle big time. Travel’s no secret. Be real, build loyalty. Culture + care + clarity = winning combo. @RealEvilHRLady

Leadership’s a juggling act. We 𝘵𝘳𝘺 to be clear, direct, and calm—earning respect by owning the tough calls, not shouting orders. No one’s got it all figured out, but showing up consistently is half the battle. #Leadership #ProgressNotPerfection

Funny how the “culture fluff” is the first thing we cut—but the last thing people forget. It’s not the metrics that build #belonging—it’s the rituals, the shoutouts, the tiny signals of care. At Alma, we try to #protect that stuff. Just ‘cause it’s human.

Most teams aren’t lazy — they’re just drowning in #fakeprogress. Slack, meetings, tools on tools. I keep asking: what’s the one thing we can ship today that matters? Still figuring it out, but it’s helping us move with more #clarity (& less chaos).

Everyone’s trying to stretch #benefits budgets. What I’m seeing: less “let’s add more stuff” and more “let’s make the right stuff work harder.”.Mental health, family support, clarity — they’re not bells & whistles. They’re basics. #employeewellbein

Mentorship isn’t about being a “wise elder.”. It’s about having someone who’ll say “yep, this part sucks—here’s what helped me.”. That’s it. Normalize helping people not spiral at work. #Mentorship #Leadership #Mindset

People don’t leave jobs—they leave confusion, #burnout, & feeling invisible. #Retention is a side effect of real connection and clear paths forward. We’re not perfect at it, but at @AlmaLasers, we keep trying to build places people want to grow in.
