Want to bridge the communication gap between your team members? If so, join Brandon Laws as he and his guest dive into the critical topic of workplace communication, a key component to the success of any team.

In this episode, Alissa Carpenter, multigenerational workplace expert and author, discusses tips and methods for open communication that will ultimately build a culture of inclusivity and the freedom to share ideas.

A few takeaways:

  • Identifying employee strengths can be the key to helping your team feel heard and valued.
  • Diversity and inclusion are just words unless leaders make room for each voice at the table.
  • Employees must feel safe in sharing their ideas. 
  • Be cognizant of your go-to, knee-jerk responses, and be open to innovation even if it’s uncomfortable.
