Does knowing the truth hurts? Of course it does. Truth can challenge beliefs, disrupt expectations, and remove the safety net of illusions. But seeking truth is valuable. It’s the foundation for growth, rebuilding, and realignment to bring about transparency, strengthen relationships, regain trust and reconstruct culture. Employees of today expect more than a cookie-cutter normal type of offerings. In a multigenerational workforce with diverse needs, listening isn’t optional—it’s pivotal. Mastering the art of listening leads to deeper connections and builds resilient, successful organizations.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

When employers embrace and build a “speak-up” culture, where people feel safe and confident to share ideas and feedback constructively without fear of consequences, it creates a revitalized, healthier and more productive workforce.

Having a voice means being heard, valued and involved. To listen effectively, organizations need multiple “listening post” and a mix of survey methods on an ongoing basis. At Lockton, we are here to help you make that happen.
