Hey, it’s Rachel Cooke, your Modern Mentor. I’m the founder of Lead Above Noise—a firm specializing in activating workplaces. Helping you discover ways to amplify performance AND employee engagement. Together. We do leader bootcamps, keynotes, and Pulse checks. Just let us know what you need.
So, today’s episode is a conversation I had with Maureen Cawley. Maureen is the Chief People Officer at Saatva, the Smarter Luxury Sleep Company. She is a Human Resources Executive with progressive experience leading teams to deliver great results. Maureen has a deep understanding of the dynamic, changing workforce and is skilled in developing, protecting, and retaining top talent.
And given all of the uncertainty and overwhelm creeping around our workplaces these days, I thought it would be helpful to chat with someone on “the inside” – someone who is seeing firsthand how people are experiencing these challenges, and to get her thoughts on strategies for coaching and supporting people through it. Hope you enjoy!
In this conversation, we covered a lot of ground.
We talked about how her own personal definition of workplace success has evolved over the years, and how she counsels those in her organization to create their own definition.
We talked about all of the “organizational noise” trying to grab our attention – and how she helps her teams to see distraction for what it is, and to maintain focus on what matters most.
We touched on the power of slowing, even pausing, and reflecting before charging forward. And how hard it can be to do this in our fast-paced world. And how she makes it happen anyway.
And we covered tons more.

I trust you’ll find a pearl of wisdom you can’t wait to deploy.
Hope you enjoyed my conversation with Maureen Cawley, Chief People Officer at Saatva.
