Interesting discussion around the water cooler this morning. Someone asked, "What if we did a state of the workplace speech?" I think they were kidding but it really got me thinking! If I stood up to give that speech would I get cheered, heckled, or booed? What would I even say, other than "things are going well!" 😂

Yeah, definitely not going to be doing that haha

Definitely not without a reason

Comes down to the culture the company carries

I think it would depend on the team, some people might cheer, some might joke around about it, but keeping it light and positive like you said would probably go well.

lol if anyone gave a speech like that at my job, it would be a lot of eye rolling and some forced clapping when it was finally over.
