Eryc Eyl - Humancentric Leadership - Founded in FoCo Podcast

About this episode

Eryc Eyl discusses heart-led leadership and the importance of human flourishing in the workplace.

What if leadership felt more like mixing the perfect DJ set—where every beat, transition, and interaction creates an experience that truly resonates? Eryc Eyl joins Nick Armstrong on the Founded in FoCo podcast to explore the art of heart-led leadership and building workplaces that put people first. Eryc unpacks six essential disciplines that help leaders foster human flourishing, blending insights from leadership, DJing, and human-centered design. They dive deep into the power of empathy, the difference between building an organization and cultivating one, and why recognizing human needs isn’t just good ethics—it’s good business. The Founded in FoCo Podcast is hosted by Nick Armstrong, Lead Organizer of Founded in FoCo and Geek-in-Chief of WTF Marketing (⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://wtfmarketing.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ ).
