"I Don't Even Have Pizza Budget" with Kijana Woodard

<p>This episode is one that I&#39;ve been super excited for - it&#39;s with Kijana Woodard, who runs kaizen.io! Kijana reached out to me a few months ago to talk about some writing, and we&#39;ve been talking ever since. We&#39;re spiritually aligned on what fulfilling work looks like, and had a fantastic time talking.</p>

<p>Today&#39;s topics range from how it&#39;s terrible that I.T has three-year seniors to how most actual decision-making authority looks like it&#39;s distributed, but in reality most managers don&#39;t have the ability to buy their team a pizza.</p>

<p>Kijana also tells me one of the funniest stories I&#39;ve ever heard in the tech space in the last three minutes.</p>

<p>As always, feedback at nik.suresh@hermit-tech.com is welcome, especially on audio quality. I think I did a lot better this time, but I have listened so many times that I feel like I&#39;ve lost the ability to even tell what&#39;s good anymore.</p>
