Workarounds can keep things moving—but stack enough of them, and you’re not solving problems, you’re covering them up. In this episode of The Workplace Chameleon, Dr. Celina Peerman digs into the hidden cost of “bandages on bandages” at work: the quick fixes we layer on top of each other instead of addressing the real issue.

From adding staff to a broken process, to offering bonuses for turnover, or handing out coupons for service failures, Dr. Celina explores how workarounds might feel like progress but often block lasting change.
