Love Your Team, Hate Your Company?

An intergenerational podcast about creating better relations between micro- and macro-cultures in your organization.

Nobody’s crazier than your company. Nothing’s better than your team.

In the endless weirdness of institutions, you will find amazing teammates. But you’ll also see companies act like zombies seeking nothing but their own survival.

Good thing that, even when you hate your company, you can still love your team—right? Well, we Mode/Switchers feel that tension with special intensity. Google our workplace, Calvin University, and look at the last half a year of history. You’ll see why.

The question is, how do you find a good relationship between the team and the org?

Answering that question might just take a mode/switch or two. Not that a shift in your mindset or behavior will transform your company. But try out one of the mode/switches we recommend this week, and you can convert the weird intensity you feel in your company’s macro-culture into a vocational posture that’s livable and sustainable. And shareable with your team.
