In this episode of WORK, Erika explores why generosity has become a lost art in today’s workplace—and why bringing it back can change everything.

Along the way, Erika unpacks TD Bank’s clever ad campaign, a viral firing story from India, Elon Musk’s controversial management style, and the future beyond smartphones, before closing with a teaching segment on active listening as one of the most generous skills you can bring to work.
