A senior leader says something which offends your employees and it gets out to the press.
How does this happen and what would you do if it happened in your organisation?
That's what happened at KPMG this month. UK Chair and senior partner, Bill Michael, told employees to stop moaning and described unconscious bias as...um...well, not a nice word.
What are the lessons we can learn from this story and what conversations could you be having - maybe conversations you'd prefer to ignore - in your organisation?
In the first episode of The Human Revolutionaries podcast, Natasha Wallace and Blaire Palmer - both authors, speakers and coaches who've worked with companies large and small in HR and leadership development for nearly 40 years combined - imagine if they were in the room with the leaders at KPMG and discuss what they would say and where they would start in fixing the problem.
Each week Blaire and Natasha 'check in' - sharing what's on their mind this week before moving on to the 'Work in the News' story for the episode.
