Danielle BorisDanielle Boris' work focuses on infusing humanity into organizations. She is the founder and CEO of Sandbox, host of the Unboxing Humans podcast, and author of The Energy of Weirdos. Prior to founding her software business, Danielle worked in ad effetiveness and market research at BuzzFeed and on the in-store mobile innovation team at Tiffany & Co. Danielle holds a B.S. in communication and an M.B.A. in technology and entrepreneurship from Cornell University. Despite working for some of the best companies with award-winning cultures, Danielle spent the early part of her career trying to stay happy and engaged at work. For some reason, the intrinsic motivation she started each job with never stuck. Looking at her colleagues, many felt the same way she did: frustrated but unsure of where to turn or how to fix it. She set out to find the answer. After years of research with leaders, team members, managers, CEOs, Chief People Officers, and everyone in between, the problem became painfully obvious. We need to put humans at the center of organizations. When we do this, inclusion, hiring, advancement, learning and development, well-being, and yes, retention, all fall into place. Teams burst with creative energy. Innovation soars, and success shows in the bottom line. Danielle believes that far too often, corporations put employees in boxes labeled by job title. This siloing not only limits talent development but also inhibits organizations from leveraging the full knowledge, skillsets, and innovation in their workforces. Only by unboxing humans can employees, managers, and organizations all win together. Sandbox leverages intrinsic motivation and purpose to drive career development, inclusion, and retention in organizations. The Energy of Weirdos shows leaders how to tap into their team members' individuality to unlock enthusiasm, creativity, and innovation. Unboxing Humans demystifies the Human-to-Human Business Model by uncovering what makes each of us unique, and a little weird.You can often spot Danielle wearing brightly colored clothing while exploring the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
