Welcome to People Person! In this episode, host and Morning Brew’s SVP Head of People Operations, Kate Noel, speaks with Kaila Lopez and Kyle Hagge, hosts of Per My Last Email, a show that dissects the intersection of work and culture, all about office romances. Kaila, who met her husband at work, offers a strong opinion about getting romantically involved at the office, while Kyle has a slightly more optimistic outlook on the matter. From when to tell HR to the question of telling your boss first, and even asking if it’s ever ok to hold hands at the office, this conversation is as enlightening as it is entertaining.
