How Employee Voice Helps Community Engagement
Widespread yet invisable
The act of employees speaking out is one that is not taken as much as it makes sense too.
Comfort level plays a part in this
group feelings on a topic also play a part
Collective action on not talking also ties into the individual choice not to talk
The Roots of Silence: the causes of silence
Fear
Hierarchical, loss of job, staying in their place
Futility
Whats the point?, apathy
Mums the word
Aware of problems just not gonna bring it up
Not having a solution
Step one find problem, step 2 solutions?????
Dread of Being Labeled
Troublemaker, difficult
The Costs for Employees and Companies
Lack of voice prevents issues from being addressed
progress is impeded
advancements are stifled
