"The news, dropped in the most millennial-coded way possible, a joint Instagram post, broke smack in the middle of the work day. And *millions* (yours truly included) found it difficult, to say the least, to focus on work while speculating with the respective group chats about the potential details of America's royal wedding. And Monroe knew that. So she gave folks the afternoon off."
"And Monroe knew that. So she gave folks the afternoon off. "Go home. Celebrate love. Speculate about the dress. Argue whether the reception will be held in KC or a castle in Europe." Absolute perfect and exactly what a major company's Culture Officer should do. But what makes it a truly A+ move is how Monroe linked it back to H&R Block's business."
Tiffany Monroe is Chief People & Culture Officer at H&R Block and a Pepperdine Law graduate. A joint Instagram announcement revealed the engagement of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce during the workday, creating widespread distraction and online speculation. Monroe responded by giving employees the afternoon off with instructions to celebrate and speculate. She explicitly tied the time off to H&R Block’s services by noting that life changes equal tax changes and congratulated employees for working at a company that understands that connection. H&R Block amplified the message on TikTok, showcasing pop culture savvy and timely newsjacking.
