1. Cultural Shift: Since the change in Avangrid CEO and CHRO leadership, there has been a noticeable shift in the company culture. The previous emphasis on people and talent recognition has diminished, leading to feelings of disconnection and demotivation among employees.
2. Decrease in Morale: Many employees are experiencing feelings of being lost, unmotivated, and stressed. This has led to a decline in morale and job satisfaction, contributing to a sense of dissatisfaction among the workforce especially in the last year.
3. Fear of Mistakes: The CEO's proclamation in meetings that there is no room for mistakes creates a culture of fear among employees. This fear of bringing errors to upper management leads employees to hide mistakes rather than address them, hindering transparency and growth.
4. Micromanagement: The CEO's tendency to micromanage the business has a detrimental impact on the company culture. It undermines trust and autonomy among employees, stifles creativity and innovation, and fosters a sense of frustration and disengagement.
