Next year will demand a deeper understanding of the person-to-person connections that power diverse workplaces.  

So, let’s ditch the boxes and embrace human harmony.  

It goes without saying that individuals’ personalities, motivations, and values all influence employee behaviour. But one area we often lose sight of is group dynamics. This space – where teams develop their own norms, hierarchies, and communication patterns – can play a significant role in shifting the employee habit dial.  

Organisations must continuously gather group data, analyse trends, and adapt their strategies accordingly to understand and engage employees at an inclusive level – focusing on shared human experiences to build bridges of collaboration and curate safe spaces for transparency.
