One Simple Question You Need To Ask Your Employees with Andrea Kehoe
In this episode, Michael and Tessa spoke with Andrea Kehoe, Director of Operations Administration at Kettering University.
Andrea shifted from being a stay-at-home mom into a corporate role with Kettering University in Michigan nearly 7 years ago. She’s moved through a few different roles since 2017 and was supported by mentors and managers who encouraged her to try out new functional areas until she landed in an operations position focused on employee engagement and fulfillment.
In her role, she leads a working group aimed to address internal culture issues, and Andrea acts as a communications lynchpin between university leadership and administrative staff.
In order to figure out where to start, Andrea and her team launched a one-question survey, and the results mirrored national trends about workplace attitudes and well-being.
Andrea’s concrete suggestion for moving through cultural issues at work? Start by bringing people together.
