Shut the Culture Up: Dear Rel Talk
Special guest, Olivia, rejoins Michelle and Maria today to finish their ‘Shut the Culture Up’ series by taking a look at a letter from one of their listeners, and responding to it in the ‘Dear Abby’ style. The letter asks our hosts for their advice in improving a toxic work culture which includes the HR team, and they definitely rise to the challenge.
Olivia begins by offering her suggestions to help with this issue, and then all 3 hosts share their experiences working in toxic work environments. They also explore ways that leaders can help in these situations, before coming back around to share more ideas for the employee themself. This episode of ‘Dear Rel Talk’ provides the straightforward advice the listener’s letter requests – advice that will undoubtedly prove beneficial to all listeners at some point in their careers.
The Finer Details of This Episode:
Quotes:
“It’s really more analyzing and asking those ‘whys’ of what is happening to really understand it.”
“I don’t know if managers are always aware of what’s going on amongst their team, or the toxicity.”
“These changes keep happening, and these stories become part of the fabric of who you are as an organization.”
“They’re playing you like you’re a chess piece, and then they want that loyalty at the end of the day?”
“I’m not going to be a fucking number!”
“Assess, coach, re-evaluate…the last step would be…find some opportunities elsewhere.”
“It’s okay that this bothers you, it is never okay that you talk to me like that again.”
“Finish the bottle.”
