I study the workplace.
And I believe workers.

The person behind the work

Hey, I’m Norlander.

For years I was the person in the room who could see what the org chart didn’t say out loud. The manager everyone tiptoed around. The policy that changed right after someone spoke up. The “culture problem” that was really one person nobody would confront.

My training is in experimental behavioral psychology, so I don’t just feel those patterns. I study them. And I kept seeing capable people, especially women of color, get told the problem was their tone, their face, their attitude.

So I built Bikomeye: a podcast that says it out loud, a library that gives you the receipts, and a community where you don’t have to figure it out alone.
