Casual Isn’t Careless : Decoding the new language of work

Description

Indian workplaces today hold four generations in a single room, each reading professionalism differently. Casual Isn’t Careless examines why a blunt WhatsApp message, a missed meeting, or a skipped Regards isn’t disrespect but a different communication instinct. Moving beyond blame, the book traces how digital tools, shifting hierarchies, and generational habits collide, then offers practical solutions for leaders and employees: patience, honest hiring, clear boundaries, self-awareness, and rebuilding trust through simple rituals. It closes by arguing that skill and mentorship, not age, determine who thrives at work. Part diagnosis, part playbook, this is a guide to closing the gap, together.
