Description

Productivity is up. AI is streamlining work. Digital tools are everywhere. But many employees feel more disconnected than ever – and it's starting to show.

In this episode, Constance Noonan Hadley reveals why workplace loneliness has become one of the most overlooked barriers to sustainable success. We examine how post-pandemic work patterns, the relentless pursuit of efficiency, and emerging technologies like AI are reshaping workplace relationships - often in ways that inadvertently undermine the very collaboration they're meant to enhance. Finally we find out about the solutions: conversation prompts, the importance of recruiting people to social events, and how team rituals transform culture.

Dr. Constance Noonan Hadley is an organisational psychologist, professor at Boston University and founder of the Institute for Life at Work. A leading expert on team dynamics and workplace loneliness, her research has been featured in Harvard Business Review and focuses on building psychological safety and authentic connection in modern workplaces.
