In this episode of ‘Over Spreken Gesproken’, Filip De Groeve talks with Glenn Vergoossen about the cost of silence, workplace taboos, and the power of uncomfortable conversations.
Filip De Groeve demonstrates why remaining silent at work is rarely neutral. Themes such as menopause, mental load, women’s health, grief, shame, or insecurity are often swept under the rug, even though they impact job satisfaction, productivity, and absenteeism.
The episode aligns with the taBOOH keynotes: breaking taboos through language, knowledge, humor, and leadership. For organizations, this conversation is essential as it shows how small signals can escalate into significant absenteeism when no one dares to start the conversation.
