What does humankindness look like in an everyday business?

In this episode of Humankindness at Work, you'll meet Jake Kramer — co-owner and director of Artillery Media — a web design agency based in Lincoln, Nebraska, that has helped launch hundreds of websites for businesses and nonprofits across the country.

Jake shares that as he grew up watching his hard working parents, he absorbed a truth that would shape his entire career: great service isn't a strategy, it's a way of being.

But this conversation is about so much more than websites.

You'll learn:

✅ Why "to be clear is to be kind" is the business principle Jake lives by

✅ The two questions every business owner should ask their clients

✅ What a culture of selflessness looks like on a team

✅ Jake's thoughts on legacy, leadership, and leaving people better than he found them

Whether you're a small business owner, creative entrepreneur, or someone who simply wants to bring more heart to your work — this episode will inspire you.

How do you inspire an entire nation?

In this episode, Executive Vice President Cory Crowley shares about the National Medal of Honor Foundation and its mission to inspire America in our shared human values of courage, sacrifice, commitment, integrity, citizenship, and patriotism.

Cory shares:

• About the Medal of Honor Museum, Monument, and Griffin Institute
• Inspiring stories of ordinary Americans whose courage and sacrifice earned them the Medal of Honor
• How instilling values in young people enables them to live selflessly in moments that matter

This episode and message are for all of us. Don't miss it!

"Even though we're all born with these values and have the endless ability to tap into them and they're a resource you can never use up, sometimes people lose their way and they don't know how to tap into them. When they see others who do it, it can then inspire them to rekindle that flame within themselves and continue to be better, not just for themselves, but for everyone around them." - Cory Crowley
