In the final part of our conversation with Emilie Rose (Director, Services L&D at MongoDB), we look at how we can measure belonging within our organisations and what we should be asking.
“Do you feel like you can be yourself at work?”
Emilie opens up about some of the challenges employees may face when if they don’t feel comfortable in the workplace. Are we making our employees feel valued? Are we supporting our employees if mistakes are made? Do people feel comfortable enough to challenge themselves?
As a People Manager, where should we be focusing our efforts? What actions demonstrate belonging?
We then move on to psychological safety and its role in autonomy and relationships. If leaders own their own vulnerability, the knock-on effect on the company culture and belonging within a team.
