Is My Boss Spying on Me?

On What’s Your Work Fit we ask a jarring question posed by several of our viewers: is my boss spying on me? This week, workplace diversity, equity and inclusion expert Dr. Betty Johnson, answers this and other work and career questions. "The home was formerly a sanctuary, the place where you could take a breath, drop the mask (the mask of performance), " laments Dr. Johnson. With so many workplaces adopting a hybrid work policy, more workers are feeling intruded upon. What is more, many now feel pressure to perform after hours at home. In this episode, Dr. Johnson answers: * Is my boss spying on me. * What channels are companies using to surveil their talent? * What is allowable versus disallowable intrusion? * Are bosses using "find my device apps" to watch me? * Is there transparency around the expectations of remote workplace presence? Dr. Johnson adds: "Is this a culture of transparency? Or is this a culture where we don't trust each other, where we do everything that we can to maximize our own self-interest?" She believes that as transparency wanes, we in the workplace lose trust in each other. About our guest: Dr. Betty Johnson is the founder of Bridging the Difference.
