This week we are talking about it being lonely at the top and the big reason you want a good work friend.

Dr. Adam Grant cites in his research that 40% of new start-ups are created between people who knew each other as friends before they started their business. And we all know the old adage that we like to do business with the people that we like. However, creating great friendships at work can be tricky, especially if you’re the boss.

We have a special guest on this week’s show, Donna Payne, who is a good friend of mine and she has a unique story about the relationship that she had with her boss and the way they navigated their 23 years friendship at work.

Enjoy this week’s show and let me know how you create friendships at work.
