Trust and Generative AI in Organizational Communication and Culture

Written communication promotes understanding, conveys authority, and inspires action. In organizations, emails often serve as a proxy for leadership presence by setting a tone, articulating expectations, and reinforcing organizational culture. Increasingly, however, this communication is no longer written solely by the sender.

These tools are now being suggested, and in some cases required, for drafting organizational communication. For the sender, AI-assisted writing can be helpful and even a source of relief when balancing tasks. For the recipient, AI-assisted writing may appear professional and well written.

The pressure to be the perfect researcher can make discussing failure with peers and mentors extremely difficult, if not impossible. Academic publishing – not unreasonably – tends to favor the publication of “successful” research. The resulting culture of silence around failure often extends beyond complete failures, leading to the avoidance of discussing what did not go well or what could have gone better in any meaningful way. What opportunities are being missed by not having conversations about failure?
