Creating Connection Through Music with Brian Mohr

A song is a powerful thing. In just seconds, it can take us back to extremely specific memories–where we were, who we were with, what we felt, and what mattered most to us in that very moment. 

And in our modern world, we’re always struggling to forge deeper, more emotional bonds with everyone around us. Today’s guest, Brian Mohr, understands that well–and is here to talk about his new startup, anthym. He’s working to use music to help culture-driven organizations create and nurture meaningful relationships amongst their people. 

The last time Brian was on the show, we talked all about what business owners can learn from the Grateful Dead. Today, we’re talking about the power of music, forging meaningful connections in the workplace, and how this powerful work (and the vulnerability it reveals) can make our lives, both in the office and at home, so much better. 

Key takeaways:

• How technology and distance have made it so difficult to build–or rebuild–company cultures.
• Why better work environments make for healthier, happier employees with more satisfying, better-rounded lives.
• What makes music such a powerful gateway to access extremely specific memories and forge connections between people.
• The benefits of talking about anything but business with the people you do business with. 
• The major challenges facing businesses as they work to create and establish great corporate culture in the post-COVID world.
