In this episode, Coach Kay sits down with Dr. Tajiri Brackens, The Workplace Wizard™, to explore how protecting people fuels profit, clarity, culture, and leadership in both workplaces and entrepreneurship. With three decades of experience in sales, leadership, and emotional intelligence, Dr. Tajiri shares how she empowers professionals to move beyond toxic environments and transform them into spaces of value, growth, and authentic success.
Dr. Tajiri shares how she incorporates themes from The Wiz into her branding and services, using clarity, courage, and teamwork as a framework for guiding leaders and organizations. She also tells the FOUR WORDS that began her transition into full-time entrepreneurship. Together, she and Coach Kay discuss the transition from corporate life to entrepreneurship, the importance of clarity and alignment, and why relationships are the cornerstone of leadership.
Her guiding belief: “People don’t walk away from paychecks; they walk away from poor leadership.”
