Boom! 💥

Another awesome conversation with an equally awesome people and culture nerd... 

But first, I must address the elephant🐘 ... this conversation was just over an hour! Sorry about that, I was absorbed and missed my time keeping flag...

I hope you will forgive me creeping over the promised PX Espresso Hour today once you have listened back to the conversation and taken so many incredible and practical insights on creating a transparency philosophy that works for your business 🤘🏻

Adam shares a 4 step process for creating a Transparency Philosophy (in last 10 mins of the episode if you are in a rush 😆) which I think will help so many People Ops Leaders take action on what can feel a complicated and scary topic to tackle.

We cover a lot of ground as always, all transparency related including:

  • Barriers to getting started with transparency 
  • The power of Notion and Open Source Employee Handbooks
  • Using transparency to attract (and repel!) talent
  • The importance of clearly defining terms, policies, and expectations
  • Utilising transparency for retention, not just attraction

This conversation was so valuable that if you are currently considering how to approach transparency in your organisation and this conversation doesn't give you a practical framework on how to begin... let me know and I will give up coffee for a whole month... did I really say that? can I take it back?

Nah, I stand by it!

As always, I really enjoyed this conversation and I hope that you do too 🤘🏻🎙️

P.S Adam recently shared an open-source employee handbook Notion template bringing together the best elements of 20 of the best employee handbooks around. It is unreal! Check it out!
