I've struggled to connect with the company because we seem to be in a constant state of change with a lack of genuine connection to leadership. I find it hard to find my footing and feel comfortable in planting my feet on ground that won't stop moving.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Empathy. Ever-changing goals, priorities and multiple reorgs has caused change fatigue that seems to be accompanied by a "just deal with it" attitude from leadership. There seems to be a lack of awareness of how much can be done with fewer people due to attrition drives anxiety.
