Join Jason for an invigorating conversation with Jessica Adams, Chief People and Culture Officer at The Krazy Coupon Lady, a forward-thinking HR leader recognized for her expertise in scaling teams, building culture, and driving retention in fully remote organizations.


Jason and Jessica unpack the power of modern benefits, discuss building connected remote teams, and explore how intentional HR strategies can transform the employee experience from onboarding to ongoing engagement. Together, they dive deep into how HR professionals can think beyond checklists and compliance to craft cultures employees genuinely love.


Key lessons highlighted in our conversation include:

๐Ÿ‘‰ Small, creative perks can have an outsized impact on engagement and retention.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Benefits are more than just cost and utilization; theyโ€™re culture carriers that shape how employees feel about work, even if rarely used.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Providing flexible, supportive work environments complete with office stipends, asynchronous communication, and local volunteering, empowers people to show up as their best selves.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Communication is essential; regularly gathering employeesโ€™ feedback ensures your benefit offerings match peopleโ€™s real needs and aspirations.

About the Podcast

Unlocking High Performance
How leaders unlock performance by creating the conditions for people to do their best work
Unlocking High Performance is a podcast for leaders who want strong results without burning their people out in the process.

Hosted by Jason Lauritsen, the show explores how clarity, alignment, and connection shape performance at work. Jason draws from his work with CEOs, executive teams, and leaders to examine why work so often becomes heavier, slower, and more frustrating than it needs to be and how to fix it.

Some episodes are solo reflections. Others are conversations with leaders and practitioners navigating real constraints and consequences. Each conversation looks beyond tactics to understand the leadership and organizational conditions that make performance possible.

The podcast focuses on the systems that drive performance, not leadership theory or quick fixes. Listeners will walk away with a clearer understanding of how work actually gets done and how to build environments where people perform at their best.
