It’s fair to say that workplace culture has finally come of age in the past year. Once a relatively niche concern of human resources teams, an engaged company culture is now a primary goal of forward-thinking business leaders as the Great Resignation, missteps in communicating layoffs, and quiet quitting have shown what can happen when leaders get culture wrong.
Yet, with the threat of a recession, and layoffs within the technology industry capturing headlines almost daily, I find it surprising that layoffs are hitting HR and DEI teams at a disproportionately high rate.
