S4 EP4: "Conversation Gaps are Killing Workplace Engagement" Pt. 2

Difficult conversations. Are you having the difficult conversations in your organization? Or are there conversation gaps? Did you know not having difficult conversations in the workplace is actually killing team and employee engagement? In the second part of this Inspired Action For Imperfect Humans podcast episode, Hosts Kyle Kalloo and Christopher Lawrence discuss and define the problem of difficult conversation avoidance, and also get into some resolutions.

“I'll tell you what toxic workplace includes gossip. I should know I got involved in it and caught up in it and some really bad ways, a number of years ago. And it is toxic. It's not just creating a toxic work environment, but it's destroying your psychology.”

Calls to Action:

Even before the remote workforce evolution, office culture was inherently fragile. After all, it’s made up of imperfect humans interacting with other imperfect humans. And while perfection isn’t the goal, we all secretly wish for a workplace where people find ways to bring out the best in each other. Unfortunately, that’s not always an intuitive skill. It takes guidance, practice, and then more guidance and practice... but with the right leadership, it’s definitely achievable. How do you enhance your workforce’s ability to engage, collaborate, and adapt in this volatile and uncertain reality?
