Bloomberg launches podcast on office politics

Bloomberg Media launched Wednesday a new podcast about the office grind and how to navigate it.

“Game Plan” will air every Wednesday and is hosted by Bloomberg reporter Rebecca Greenfield and editor Francesca Levy.

One of the first episodes examines the much hated, empty phrases we are all guilty of using when we talk to our coworkers. Comedian and writer Sara Schaefer joins the show to share funny workplace jargon experiences.

Another of the early episodes will talk about the salary discrepancy between men and women, and negotiating raises and promotions.

Bloomberg has launched seven original podcasts in the last 18 months as the company’s digital presence continues to expand.
