Deep dives
Disconnect Between C-Suite and Employees
The podcast discusses the disconnect between what the C-suite thinks is happening in an organization and what employees actually perceive. This disconnect has resulted in the great resignation and quiet quitting, where executives and their direct reports are not on the same page.
Overemphasis on Customer Experience
The podcast highlights that there has been an overemphasis on improving the customer experience, which has come at the expense of the employee experience. While billions of dollars have been spent on reducing customer effort, employee effort has increased due to lack of integration in enterprise applications and systems.
Impact of the Pandemic
The pandemic magnified the lack of investments made for employees, such as providing essential tools for remote work. A study showed that employees ranked higher than customers as the number one stakeholder in a business for long-term success. The podcast emphasizes the importance of investing in employees despite potential rising costs, as retaining unhappy employees can be even more detrimental to the company's bottom line.
