Reducing people to KPIs, efficiency metrics, or headcount rather than recognising their humanity.Driving decisions and short-term results rather than long-term flourishing.Where there should be collaboration there is competitionTechnology bought in to “increase efficiency” creating surveillance, micromanagement, and pressure.People craving meaning, creativity, and belonging, but finding only bureaucracy, silos, and hierarchy.Workplaces punishing mistakes rather than seeing learning opportunities.People feeling they must hide parts of themselves — whether that’s their creativity, boldness, or uniqueness — to “fit in.”
If you know something is off in your culture – but can’t quite name it – HCBU helps you see clearly and act humanely.
