In this episode, I'm exploring workplace systems and asking: Are your policies and processes breaking your people?Drawing from Hilary Cottam's book Radical Help, I examine how rigid, outdated systems create chronic stress, burnout, and disengagement, and what you can actually do to redesign them for the people in them.In today’s show on How and Why Workplace Systems Break People01:08 Why workplaces feel like the Wild West right now with unethical practices and no accountability.02:28 What workplace systems actually are beyond textbook definitions.06:20 How outdated or rigid work designs lead to chronic stress, high turnover, and disengagement.08:00 Why global employee engagement has hit its lowest point in a decade.15:24 Some practical steps to start fixing broken systems.Quotes on How and Why Workplace Systems Break PeopleEvery system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets.When a system is broken, people absorb the impact until they can't anymore.Systems teach people how to behave, whether that's for the better or for the worse.Employees will bear the stress of meeting targets but may not have the autonomy and agency to fix broken processes.Looking at a system can be much more important than looking at individuals because systems can enable individuals to behave poorly or positively.
