Some company & department town halls are *top-down*: designed to give leaders a forum to share important information or metrics with their employees.
Some company & department town halls are *bottom-up*: designed to give employees a forum to share important demands or grievances with their leaders.
Good town halls have both elements. They allow for a healthy exchange of information, and an environment where employees feel engaged and listened to.
Thank you to all our colleagues who spend time and effort making good town halls happen -- especially in the remote/hybrid work era!
