Sometimes the smallest experiences reveal the biggest workplace truths. In this episode, Ryan shares how a quick stop to fill his tires turned into a masterclass on disengagement. When the air machine started letting air out instead of putting it in—and the station’s “warning” sign barely warned anyone—it became clear: quality suffers when employees stop caring.
Ryan unpacks how poor service, unclear communication, and lack of ownership are all warning lights of disengagement, not just in gas stations but in every business. Through relatable stories and sharp insights, you’ll see how employee engagement—or the lack of it—shows up everywhere, from customer experiences to company reputation.

Listen in to learn:

  • Why the “little things” are the biggest engagement indicators
  • How disengagement trickles down to customers
  • What great managers do to keep the air (and energy) flowing in their teams
