Listen Later

In this conversation, Chuck Gose and Jenni Field discuss various themes surrounding corporate culture, employee experience, and the impact of recent changes in workplace dynamics. 

They explore the troubling shift in corporate culture from positivity to fear amidst the recent stories of cutting middle management roles. 

They explore the disconnect between executives and middle managers, the challenges of internal communication, and the cultural differences in how deskless and office workers receive information. 

They discuss the need for more strategic communication within organizations and the delicate balance businesses must maintain when addressing societal issues based on some recent research in the USA. 

The conversation also touches on the role of values inside organisations, the expectations of employees regarding workplace culture and the importance of focusing on relevant communication.
