Earlier this year in an interview with Adam Grant, Airbnb's CEO Brian Chesky revealed his regret at describing his company as a family during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In this episode we go deeper into why Brian believes this is problematic. We'll look at how true it is. We'll also explore risks with this approach and what can be negative consequences for employees if this becomes overemphasised. 

Finally we'll discuss alternative approaches that may prove more effective and a bonus discussion on the benefits of group coaching to improve team relationships.
