Given the trust placed in business leaders, CEOs and their senior teams are well-placed to nurture and build trust to the benefit of all. Senior Teams Are Critical for Healthy Cultures Mutiny within organizations is good for no one, but there’s no doubt there has been a shift in demands from employees (and it’s not all around pay) who are demanding more transparency and trustworthiness from their senior teams. What happened to “it’s okay not to be okay”, and to the compassionate leadership we saw emerge from the pandemic? Under pressure, it appears that leaders are unlearning some of the lessons of the last two years, but employees aren’t prepared to go back. Given the events of the last six months, business leaders must take note of the change in the social contract between them and their employees if they are to build back better. Some of those workers we most valued and cherished during the pandemic are feeling burnt out. From nurses to paramedics, midwives to junior doctors, university staff, teachers, passport office staff, civil servants, rail workers, postal workers, and bus drivers-people feel overworked, underpaid, and tasked with managing their own stress. If you do visit Extreme Escape, know that you must solve their puzzles in a singular, specific, linear way, and if you find yourself wondering how "smart" the puzzles are at identifying their solution pieces, you're a cheater having bad wrong fun and should be ashamed of yourself.Employees in the UK are sending a signal to their leaders that enough is enough. Carter had already handled the situation, but for some reason Kayla felt it necessary to burst in, so she could huff, berate us, and slam objects around. It completely destroyed the experience, and most importantly was completely unnecessary.Īgain, we could not solve the room's big puzzle until we had the pieces from puzzle 7 AND puzzle 8. Then took the magnets off puzzle 8 and began cleaning up other older puzzles before eventually storming out the way she'd come in. She picked up the pieces I'd set down and was not near or touching, since we'd returned to puzzle 7, and put them back in their box. Boy was I wrong.Ī couple minutes later, another employee, Kayla, flung the door of the room open, barged in and began berating us for cheating and being cheaters. I immediately apologized and put the new pieces down so we could come back to them once we solved puzzle 7 where we were stuck. Puzzle 8 popped open.Ĭarter immediately hopped on the intercom and said "Technically that's cheating, but you still need other pieces. I picked up magnets from a previous puzzle, said out loud "I wonder if this will work" and stuck them on puzzle 8. Again, this being the second time I've ever done an escape room, and the first time I've faced multiple magnetic puzzles, I wondered if magnets from a previous puzzle solution would "solve" puzzle 8. Previous puzzles were also solved with magnets. We got stuck on a puzzle (for convenience I'll call it puzzle 7). It's required pieces are scattered through a number of other puzzles. But then everything went horribly wrong.īasically, there's one big puzzle you need to complete in order to escape the room. It was the second escape room I have *ever* done. My wife and I came to play the pirate adventure.
