The Labor Market Blame-Game

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/10/10

In today's episode: It's not that nobody wants to work anymore--young people are just expecting fair wages, non-toxic workplaces, and fulfilling work. And this is capitalism at work. "Living with parents" is seen as a failure to launch, despite it being a sound financial decision in a historically bad housing market. Corporations aren't competing with just their competition: they're competing with a huge variety of side gigs and unorthodox jobs that have been made possible by new

Ghost Job Postings

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/10/09

In today's episode: It's growing increasingly common for companies to put up "ghost job" postings that they never intend to hire for. This is for three main reasons: to signal strength (look how many people we're hiring!), to interview employees from competitors, and to strike some fear into current employees. It's a great short-term motivator and a terrible long-term plan. Culture Leaders Daily is a daily, five-minute podcast for CEOs where we dissect the week's biggest news, unpack hot-button

Dr. Jessica Kriegel is joined by Wais Achikzad, a senior consultant at Culture Partners with extensive experience in investment banking, and Patrick Curtis, founder and CEO of Wall Street Oasis.

They also

The Wall Street Attrition Problem

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/10/08

In today's episode: Despite its high salaries and "work hard, play hard" lifestyle, Wall Street is burning through young workers. In the long run, this is bad for the banks who want to recruit top talent who will be leaders in 10-15 years. The problem is the divide between junior analysts and middle-management leadership.

Destigmatizing Mental Health Care

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/10/07

In today's episode: The pandemic opened up a lot of conversations about mental health care, as more people were visibly struggling. Despite those advances, there's still a stigma against talking about mental health in the workplace, for fear it will be used in hiring and promotion decisions. When businesses consistently promote well-being, mental health care become just another piece of overall wellness conversations.

In today's episode:The longshoremen strike is over, for now--they've agreed on a wage increase, but the automation question is still open. The union's opposition to automation isn't about fancy new technology, but things like parking gates and timecard stamping. With these tactics, they're making the argument FOR automation--if things were automated, the economy wouldn't be in this much danger.

Jessica on Scripps News: The Longshoreman Strike

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/10/03

In today's episode:The longshoremen on strike have a lot more leverage than the last few large strikes we've seen. Increased wages are an easy sell for the public. Preventing automation is going to be a lot less popular--it's antithetical to the American Dream. Right now, neither side is taking accountability by focusing on what they can control.

The East Coast Longshoreman Strike

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/10/02

In today's episode:The longshoremen going on strike are a high-skilled workforce who deal with valuable cargo; they have a lot of power, but job insecurity is still an issue. The American supply chain is STILL fragile because there are no buffers--we removed them all in service of profit. Because of that fragility, even one day of strikes will cause big ripples in the economy.

Getting The Most Out Of A Board

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/10/01

In today's episode: Corporate boards can become chaotic messes when their role in a company is unclear or misaligned with management. Sometimes, management holds back information, sweeping their own bad decision-making under the rug. In truth, executives will become more powerful if they allow themselves to be vulnerable in front of the board and make use of their expertise.

An Open Letter to Delta CEO Ed Bastian

In today's episode: Delta Airlines fosters a culture of community engagement. But in the wake of the Crowdstrike disaster, CEO Ed Bastian is quoted saying it was too late to reach out to Microsoft and Crowdstrike executives. Cultivating caring relationships involves giving difficult feedback and opening lines of communication. Publicly declaring that you're not open to having a conversation is just playing the blame game. We're always getting better, so how is Delta growing from the experience

The Dangers of For-Profit AI

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/09/27

In today's episode: OpenAI's CTO, Mira Murati, has left the company at the same time OpenAI is becoming for-profit. That's a dangerous incentive for the world's biggest AI company. For-profit companies are legally beholden to shareholder profit before public good, and we've already seen how profit motives have pushed tech companies toward the addictive and invasive. Where do we go from here? It's tough to say, but sure to be a wild ride. Culture Leaders Daily is a daily, five-minute podcast for

Are Corporate Surveys Valuable?

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/09/26

In today's episode:Employee surveys can be incredibly valuable, but they're often just used as validation tools for executives. Results should be shared with employees--after all, it's their information. Surveying too frequently can lead to fatigue and an overabundance of noise. Once you receive the results of a survey, the next step is to take action to fix problems, not conduct more surveys.

The Gender Pay Gap Has Widened

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/09/25

In today's episode:The gender pay gap widened last year, for the first time in decades. Gender diversity in leadership is directly correlated with growth and results, but a lot of people still don't want to believe it. Most products are being consumed equally by men and women; it pays to have a better gender balance on back-end. More women than men tend to leave the workforce to raise children. That just means companies should be working even harder to embrace them when they return. Culture

"Culture" Doesn't Sell Anymore

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/09/24

In today's episode:The era of employee-centric practices is over--now companies are cutting costs and laying people off. Large companies firing 10-20% of their workforces to meet short-term profit goals is now considered standard. Company culture is still crucial, but the conversation has to start with results and profits for companies to be interested.

Plans Are Useless, But Planning Is Essential

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/09/23

In today's episode: Often, the best career planning happens in the rearview mirror. Specific plans are almost guaranteed to be derailed. But the act of planning (considering what you want and how to achieve it) is crucial for getting anywhere. Getting locked into a specific plan can be a big mistake for leaders.

Will Salaries Go Up Next Year?

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/09/20

In today's episode: American salaries are forecasted to go up by an average of 3.5% next year. Executives face a balancing act: paying enough to retain employees while not eating too far into the margins. Most are happy to pay for performance, but only if they see that performance. That's why they prefer to pay bonuses. The most engaging employers offer good compensation, but also think holistically about non-financial rewards like recognition, work climate, and progression.

Anticipate Resistance To Change

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/09/19

In today's episode:Any change to an organization will face resistance for rational reasons: lack of trust, switching costs, competing commitments, and change fatigue--as well as a reflexive identity-based resistance to change. When making a change, start with a majority--even if that's just three people in a room of five. Identify grievances and address resistance head-on. If you can, turn resistors into accountability partners. Culture Leaders Daily is a daily, five-minute podcast for CEOs

Tracking Employee Location Is A Bad Idea

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2024/09/18

In today's episode: PwC is using location data to track whether employees are adhering to return-to-office policies. This strategy treats employees like children, assumes they're working without integrity, and loses top talent. These tactics can often act as soft layoffs--annoying employees into quitting so that management can avoid making the tough decision to fire people.
