DEI feedback survey

Never directly experienced the DEI zeitgeist in the workplace. It was only beginning to rear its ugly head when I went into semi retirement ten years ago.
What I had to endure to some limited extent, was meetings and day long seminars on Team Building in the Workplace. These time wasters appeared after the privately owned oilfield equipment company where I was working was purchased by an out of country publicly traded multinational. To those of us from the original company it was very apparent that who really needed team building training were those in management who resided in the head office abroad, or those managers head office parachuted to lead the team following the acquisition.
Buzz words and expressions like team player or team building ring hollow with me as a result of that exercise in pointless HR self justification.
We had “Culture “. Three years paying this bullshit consultant, thousands of man hours of meetings and surveys, etc to develop our documented culture, which is ridiculous on its face. In the end, the CEO, who I worked closely with, basically declared victory by saying you guys go live the new culture while I continue to act as I always have, which was the problem to begin with.
Been through team building too, but the version I endured was not as heinous as culture.

Mmmm, I’m not in a business too bothered by this crap, anyway. Plus, I actually hire a pretty diverse crew. Not through any intent, purely accidental, just chose the best applicants. But mostly? We’re in a position that if worse comes to worse, I could invest into buying myself a small business and feel comfortable enough to make a go of it.
