About this listen

In this episode, Jenni Field and Chuck Gose explore the evolving landscape of employee communication and experience.

They dig into the growing disconnect with frontline workers, the surprising decision by Moderna to merge HR and IT, and why internal communicators should start thinking more like journalists. The conversation also dives into Gallup’s “remote work paradox,” highlighting how employees can be both highly engaged and deeply stressed.

Throughout, Jenni and Chuck emphasize the value of listening, the risks of surface-level metrics, and the growing need for clarity, connection, and courage in how organizations communicate.
