Why Bring The People's Talk Space to Your Org?
Talking about tragic or sensitive current events at work, such as hate crimes against marginalized groups or company layoffs, can be difficult. Our virtual service provides employees with a safe space to process their experiences and feelings on tough topics. Whether it's another global or community tragedy or an internal company event, we support your employees by creating virtual discussion spaces that protect and put them first.
Here are five reasons you need The People's Talk Space.
1
To create a sense of belonging for all employees, you must acknowledge and create space for them to process the events that impact them. Silence and inaction are not a sufficient response to these events.
2
Only 21% of US employees trust leadership in their organization. To build trust, you'll want to be sure your employees know you care about their experiences and feelings by creating a space for those human elements to show up at work.
3
Productivity suffers when employees are not fully present because fear, worry, and grief are heavy mental loads. Creating space for these experiences and emotions helps employees offload, so they can bring their best selves to work.
4
Employee engagement not only impacts productivity, it impacts your ability to retain high performers. Employees who have a space to mentally offload their feelings from current events are more likely to be engaged in their day-to-day work.
5
A safe space is key. HR or other Internal employees and leaders are not well positioned or skilled to facilitate sensitive dialogue. Employees need the safety of an external third party fully dedicated to their interest.
