Quotes from the episode
Mattering says you belong at the table, but it goes even further, and it says you would be missed if you weren’t here. You are adding value, and we would notice if you weren’t here.
-Jennifer Wallace
We have so much input and so much output being demanded of us today that often we go through life on autopilot.
-Jennifer Wallace
Mattering is not another thing to add to your to-do list. Mattering is a way of looking at your to-do list.
-Jennifer Wallace
When you look at the data on what drives performance, it is engagement. And what drives engagement is mattering.
