☆ A 'culture of niceness' at your company could actually be a red flag that people can't be honest, NYU professor says

Companies promoting a 'culture of niceness' could actually be doing employees a disservice, one NYU professor said. Workers can't progress if their colleagues are too nice to speak about their weaknesses. Loyalty and niceness at work are becoming outdated as companies lay off thousands. "What ends up happening is, we've somehow pitted niceness against clear communication and confrontation, even when it's necessary," she explained to CNBC. One of the "biggest red flags for a culture of niceness" is when there's no "psychological safety" to speak about people's strengths and weaknesses, West said.
