Google CEO Sundar Pichai has a new streamlined definition of “Googleyness,” the long-ambiguous term used to describe the company’s cultural values, during an all-hands meeting last week. The new framework focuses on six key principles aimed at providing clearer guidance for employees.
The redefinition comes as part of efforts to move away from the term’s previously broad interpretation, which had been criticized for potentially fostering workplace homogeneity. According to two Google employees who attended the meeting, Pichai emphasized that the previous definition had become too expansive and required clarification.
