Listen "🌴38. Confirmation culture"
Episode Synopsis
Let me introduce a new concept I coined - 'confirmation culture.' We'll delve into the rise of this phenomenon, comparing it to the well-known cancel culture, though it's quite different at its core. You’ll hear about my personal experiences with excessive appointment confirmations, and how this mirrors the rise of 'ghosting' in our society. I'll also share insights on how confirmation culture impacts everything from job applications to business operations, and propose solutions like smarter tech automations. You’ll relate if you’ve ever been swamped by automated texts or emails, and we’ll explore how we can balance reliability and efficiency. 00:00 Introduction to Confirmation Culture00:13 Personal Anecdotes and Observations00:38 Defining Confirmation Culture01:40 The Rise of Ghosting02:12 Anti-Ghosting Executive Orders02:46 Impact on Job Seekers and Employers03:44 The Role of Technology in Confirmation Culture04:38 Proposed Solutions and Final ThoughtsSign up for free for my best articles every week: Work Fame.Show notes for every episode at https://podcast.leannehughes.comP.S.
