As companies expand, bureaucratic practices often disengage employees, making it difficult to maintain a healthy and fun culture. Individual roles can seem disconnected from the company’s larger challenges, eroding trust and job satisfaction. This issue is further exacerbated when employees are expected to execute tasks that seem meaningless or unrelated to major challenges, stripping away the fun and happiness in the workplace.

On this podcast, Catherine will share strategies to improve employee engagement in growing businesses. She’ll discuss the importance of rebuilding trust by simplifying tasks and promptly resolving employee issues. Moreover, she’ll explain how management can listen effectively, making employees feel valued by linking their roles to the company’s larger challenges, thereby transforming work into a more meaningful and fulfilling experience.

Join us as we discuss making employees feel valued.
