Communication needs to be ongoing and face challenges on many levels. As a nurse I was always disgruntled with management. As Assistant Director of Nursing I found out my hands were tied to address issues because the corporation would not back strategies and actions. The disconnect can be wide and many times the staff and the management don't even speak the same language.

Beautiful impressive amazing soul . So true. Pray more n more amazing souls spread awareness. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.

UNBLOCK COMMUNICATION. Which doesn't mean just listening, but hearing and acting on what we say!

In many workplaces, employee opinions aren’t wanted because this creates extra work for management/CEO’s.

Many employees will easily express their opinions, issues, and concerns, or will “complain”, but will not take action when asked for solutions. Why is it up to management to solve problems? I say involve the employees in the problem solving process for themselves and thus the organization.

Really glad that I listened to this talk. Thank you Chris!!

I learned a lot from this Tedx Talks video. Very insightful. I believe companies and employees can agree on a win-win situation at all time. If proper trainings are offered, employees will perform their tasks better and the company's productivity will highly increase.

This resonates with my work experience very well. Thank you for sharing this Chris.

This talk is amazing.

Usually, not always every employee who joins a new job has so much new potential and fresh energy and that's where the company culture plays an important role in bringing the best of the employee. Very impressive video, Thank you!

​@steverogers7601 i would say its a way to get employees to work a certain way, sometimes it works as intended, other times it does not. For example, the fake "tight-family" work environment that many places pretend to exhibit

Excellent talk....very insightful, informational and quite useful across many scenarios in the work place.

Fostering a workplace culture that brings out the best and not only just brings out the best but sustainably brings out the best in employees is valuable in practically all multi-personnel workplace environments.

I'm glad to have taken the time... thank you!!!

A company either brings out the best in you or cage the best in you this is determined by you. I mean you need to work in a place where your goals alight with your company or the employer directly.

Great talk about good intentions. Fails to take into account human nature and reality. The good leaders in the crowd will embrace this message, because they’re already doing it. The bad leaders will just use the answers of their staff against them.

Oh wow! Spot on!

At 11:30 - What don't we talk about/what should we talk about? A few questions come to mind: Are holy books really relevant to us today, and if so how, and why? Is capitalism really working for us, for all (corporations' goals are to grow and make a profit)? Are people today living up to their full potential? If so, how (whose potential: society's, mentors', leaders')? If not, why not? Why do we have wars today, even though we have all the knowledge we need to avoid wars - we know all about each others' culture, priorities, weaknesses, wants, needs. Can't the differences that lead to war be expected, managed or avoided to achieve a common goal? [I'm aware that this talk was about the workplace - but I think it applies to our daily lives just as much]. Great talk, great information!

This is a great video and some pretty impressive points. Thanks for sharing.

Working together versus being used… engagement and integrity matter a lot.

My experience is that employees get asked for their thoughts when things get bad. They then get told that a few of those suggestions will get worked on, but will take time. Finally, much later than the promised success date the employees bring up the issue again and get the brush off, or pathetic excuses. Finally committies are made that are called “moral committee ” to try to figure out why everybody is checked out. Of course only management is part of that and nothing comes of that either😂.

Haha you sound like every nurse ever. Which is interesting because, there is a self made economic vacuum that has occurred by nurses, which consists mass quantities of nurses becoming travelers with competitive wages. Said wages continue to increase. This is the conclusion of employee dissatisfaction. The ones who suffer most in these cases are the employers and those who remained loyal to their companies.

Experienced this exact same thing and ended up quiting and it was the best decision I have made

intro: disengagement is a problem in workplaces because people feel they don't have the ability to speak up about issues in their workplace so they just mentally checkout 2:45, 3 things to do to prevent disengagement. 6:30, 2?: become responsive. Once you've heard, make the changes and show you've listened. 8:30, if no resolution can be had, there are these possible choices. 1. Leave the company for a company with values like our own. 2. Stay with the company and hope for better in the future while living with the disappointing reality of what things are like currently. 3. Disagree and committ. 4. Disengage, or "check out." 9:42, 3? Aim higher... 11:17, Ask this question: "What do we not talk about around here (that we should)?

He makes good points, I checked out and stopped caring a long time ago.

Have you found a solution for this problem?

Good insights and thanks for sharing. I find there is a strong link between internal communications and employee engagement. To unblock communication channels it is not possible for the HR team to do it in isolation. Nor it is the sole responsibility of these folks to address the engagement challenge. It is important to have a formal internal communication team that will be responsible for promoting an organizational culture that is built around its vision/mission/values.

So many good points!

Too many leaders think that open and transparent communication means lengthy meetings with executives "sharing" updates about the business, laying out their vision for the department, or even doing cringy things meant to "humanize" these C-suite executives (like sharing personal anecdotes or slide shows about their family vacation). What they fail to realize is that employees hear plenty from leadership. They don't want another meeting that could have been an email. What they want is a forum where their own ideas, questions and concerns can be voiced and taken seriously. In my experience, the number one leadership skill that the majority of executives lack is the ability to shut their mouths, open their ears and give their undivided attention to employees in a safe and open dialogue. In the large corporation I work for, I'd love to see execs schedule an all associate meeting where every speaker is a front-line employee. Or better yet... let's have a panel of experts from all teams in the department, and have the executives ask THEM questions (rather than the other way around).

Thank you! I was recently made a Team Lead and I see so much that needs to be changed at our technical help desk. I love my job so I cant wait to get started!

@@cryptodeity from a business prospective, I would assume that assessment of compensation is not just based on cost but on the value added by the worker, some of that value is placed on experience in anticipation of costly obstacles (probably the most valuable), ability to be flexible and adaptive to change, hard work and wisdom to not overwork subordinates to the point of negative progress and rework. The goals of the companies team needs to be inline with the expectations and results of the triad of quality, cost, time.

I never feel like management listens to us. Every time they send one of these employee satisfaction metric, it always feels like we’re in trouble when employees say they’re not happy about one aspect of the work culture. The whole “company values and beliefs “ just feels like a way to manipulate people to do work for them.

Great content 💯🙏🏻

Communication at work is tricky. Usually, they just want you to be there and listen to them while they talk and talk and talk. And when you try to speak, they talk over you or insert themselves so you don't build whatever it is you want to talk about. They want to be always in control. The power imbalance is also there. They can say anything without repercussions. You, on the other hand, is just an employee they can fire if you say something they do not like.

Super sir 👏👏👏...

Just walking around and asking doesn't mean a thing about being open to communication. Because most employees would like to give their feedback with some privacy. Nobody wants to speak their mind and register their protest in front of others unless the protest is planned by a group or union. That is why one-on-one conversation is important. For larger organizations, this can be done by unit leaders and not necessarily the CEO walking around every nook and corner.

Work life should always be professional, and you should always listen to employees/customers snd try your best to Solve Problems, not Create More Problems. You cannot be afraid to be a leader, and you cannot be afraid to say what needs to be said. Remember Your Objectives. That’s not to say that you can’t enjoy work when at work, however, you need to keep your home life away from work as much as possible

very nice

This is why labor unions are necessary. We just need to refashion unions to be as flexible as they expect business to be. And business needs to understand that labor is not an infinite resource. Stop treating employees like they're expendable, that business growth is the only goal at any cost (except executive compensation and bonus of course). Labor IS the company. Without it there is nothing left to negotiate.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS - "AEROPLANE GAME"- PERSON E

The common tactic of ad hominem sarcasm as a way of loosening new people up before you've even met them is a misnomer. Close friends and coworkers with understandings of each other can enjoy such a strategy but it's often not wise for strangers. The fact that ad hominem is so acceptable and the victim is blamed for "feeling" any effects from it (apparently not everyone is void of emotion) is a lack of morals in society.

👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻

we need admission or college exam to be given in teams so teamwork has value in students mind. otherwise they don't have incentive to work in team. We need to give incentive to students to work in team. because in early age if they don't learn team work and they don't have incentive to do team work , then you will have depressed and selfish future generation.

This is the first positive message of how many pages of "coworkers are not your friend." I'm trying to get in a good mindset before work, sheesh.

Why can't I get what your saying?...please help me unblock the communication

listening to employees and asking their thoughts is ted talk worthy? You would that that would be management 101

Could have saved ten and a half minutes if he just started with his closing. Upper, upper management will never listen to the “grunts” of their company.
