The Invisible Exchange Between Leaders and Employees

from CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel · host tentwentytwo / Culture Partners

In today’s episode: There's an unspoken social contract between employers and employees. Leaders believe they're hiring people to achieve results; employees believe they're being hired to perform activities. But companies can successfully complete all the job descriptions as written and still fail to achieve the results they want. The underlying belief systems are mismatched. CEO Daily Brief is a daily, five-minute podcast for CEOs where we dissect the week's biggest news, unpack hot-button workplace trends, and bring you exclusive interviews with leaders who leverage culture to drive real business results. John Frehse, Global Head of Labor Strategies at Ankura, joins Jessica every week to discuss the latest news in labor, employment, and workplace culture by asking each other the question: 'What Are You Paying Attention To Now?'
