Ghosted

Agile Disrupted

Tis the season to be horrific and ghoulish, let's talk about corporate horror & trauma. Have you ever been ghosted by a company before

Corporate ghosting is when a company completely cuts off all forms of corporate communication with you without prior notice or explanation. Plot twist: this can happen to absolutely any professional in their career.

• Why does corporate ghosting happen?
• What stopped a supervisor from having one hard conversation to their employee and sparing them a lifetime of trauma?
• What happens to all the relationships that an employee built in the organization after being ghosted?
• How does being ghosted by a company affect an employee's ability to trust their next hiring manager again?
• How does being ghosted by a company affect an employee's ability to build relationships again at their next company?
• Does one supervisor's decision to ghost an employee not affect the rest of the employees reporting to him/her?
• How does ghosting one employee ensure the psychological safety of the peers of that employee?
• Can a company's culture be salvaged when ghosting employees becomes an acceptable norm?
• What precedent does corporate ghosting set for new hires at a company?
• Where is the trust, integrity, transparency, and courage that companies seek from their people, if it's not shown by example?
• How is corporate trauma any different from the personal trauma that results from being ghosted?
• How does the human mind respond to a trauma it cannot process or find closure in?
• Is there awareness of the damaging consequences that corporate ghosting brings to an employee or is it not that important?
• To what magnitude do you start questioning yourself and your self worth to fully process the very act of being ghosted?
• Does the memory of being ghosted by a company truly fade away or does it stay with you until the test of time?
• Would you have changed the narrative of your time with a company knowing that you were going to get ghosted in the end?

Is a company's decision to ghost their employee a necessary cruelty that could've been avoided by providing one exit conversation? 🔥
