Hosts Carol Schultz and Rob Swymer take a look at a new Gallup study in this episode of Evolving Your Workplace: After Hours. The two look at some troubling statistics, such as the approximately 51% of Americans currently looking for new jobs. Challenges with hybrid and remote work, ineffective management strategies, and changing expectations from customers are just a few of the issues brought up.  

The discussion features some perspective from Rob’s time leading a remote team during the pandemic. He believes that simple strategies such as virtual coffee meetings and consistent gratitude exercises can make all the difference. Carol also highlights some kind words from her chief of staff and emphasizes the importance of vulnerability in a management position.  

One of the main highlights of the episode is the overall emphasis on creating an engaged culture, communicating with employees, and improving leadership plans. The hosts emphasize that companies need to be more personable with employees in order to succeed.
