ETHAN BURRIS: I study the concept of employee voice, what leads employees to speak up in organizations, how to have honest and candid conversations with your boss about the things that work and the things that don’t, and then ultimately what those managers and leaders decide to do with that information once they get it. ETHAN BURRIS: Oftentimes when I tell executives that if they’re expecting their employees to be candid and transparent about their own experience and you’re asking them to fill out a survey, then those very same executives also need to be transparent and candid about the process and what they’re doing with that feedback.
