How Might We Be Us In The Workplace
In this episode, my guest is Simon Payne. Simon is a tattooed, creative, commercial, and highly focused individual who has been working in learning and people development since 2004. He ran an innovative team-building company for 9 years before fully focusing on training, capability, and performance consulting, and people strategy.
He’s proud to have worked with hundreds of organisations and thousands of people, across multiple business sectors, worldwide.
He’s got my own attitude, style, and very forward-thinking. He thinks it’s vitally important to challenge and not settle for OK.
His approach is simple, be human.
His special power (I don’t say shazam though – well not often) is getting inside the head and heart of the problem – understanding what makes people and businesses tick – and this means challenging the status quo sometimes.
In this episode Simon and I discuss the concept of being oneself in the workplace, not having one persona for work and one for home. We meander through the concepts of growth mindset, leadership, learning, and psychological safety. And maybe it all boils down to being more human in business.
03:19 I employ you and not your family
04:29 COVID may well help us look at how we work together
08:05 How do you be more human in business
09:26 It is the system that is broken, not the people

12:37 What is the role of trust?
14:51 All the stuff about being human we are good at; so why can’t we do it?
16:18 Team charters
18:04 We all want to have a social connection and a positive environment
21:00 Helping employees set their own objectives
22:57 Peer to peer feedback
27:47 The role L&D can play
35:50 Organisations being brave, and try something different
40:18 Start with yourself and learn from other departments
44:38 Be careful what we define as success
46:01 Businesses are not around forever
49:18 How we can adapt to the new normal of work
57:24 The role of leadership
