An organizational psychologist, Sam co-hosts "At Work with The Ready," where he delves into modern work practices.

Simone Stolzoff, author of The Good Enough Job

Simone Stolzoff is an author and TED speaker. A former design lead at IDEO, his work has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Atlantic. His debut book, The Good Enough Job, challenges the prevailing notion of the dream job and advocates for a balanced relationship between work and life.

With over 15 years of experience building best-in-class workplaces at companies including InVision, Instacart, and One Medical, she now advises executives and people teams on how to create sustainable, high-performance cultures in distributed environments. In her interactive workshop, Shelby will help attendees rethink how work happens, balancing flexibility, engagement, and business impact.
