  • サマリー

  • Welcome to America’s Employee Handbook—the podcast that reimagines the U.S. government as a massive corporation called AmeriCo and explores how leadership, policy, and organizational behavior shape our daily lives. Hosted by Dani Sterbinsky, a veteran, certified HR professional, and Industrial-Organizational Psychology expert, this show breaks down governance and policy through the lens of workplace dynamics—think leadership styles, team motivation, and corporate culture, but applied to Washington, D.C.


    Each episode unpacks real-world political decisions as if they were management strategies in a Fortune 500 company. From executive leadership to agency efficiency, we analyze how government policies impact citizens—aka AmeriCo’s employees—and explore what makes an effective, accountable, and high-performing organization.


    Whether you’re a political junkie, an HR professional, or just someone trying to make sense of how policies affect you, America’s Employee Handbook is your guide to understanding government in a way that actually makes sense.


    Clock in, join the conversation, and let’s rethink the way we manage AmeriCo.

  • Strategic Alliances: How America Handles Partnerships
    2025/03/27

    In this episode of America’s Employee Handbook, host Dani Sterbinsky unpacks the inner workings of global alliances by comparing U.S. government strategies to corporate operations at "AmeriCo." With a conversational and slightly left-leaning tone, Dani explores the dynamics of NATO defense spending and the impact of tariffs on North American trade, revealing how decisions in high-level policy can affect everything from national security to your local grocery bill. The discussion also delves into the intriguing Mar‑a‑Lago accord theory, a speculative yet thought-provoking idea that questions how coordinated economic strategies might reshape the global financial system. Interweaving insights from Industrial-Organizational Psychology and real-world examples, this episode invites listeners to research, share personal experiences, and reflect on how civic duty and informed dialogue are key to sustaining effective partnerships.
