This week we have a case study submitted by a listener who asks for suggestions on managing a work situation where he feels a peer is exhibiting “unprofessional” behaviour.

Kim and Fulyana discuss the particular case study as well as other areas that might be considered “unprofessional” amongst peers in the workplace.

In another of our “review” questions from 2017, Kim and Fulyana look at the perennial question of how to “switch off” from thinking about work. Do you really need to? Fulyana’s responses might surprise you!

As a follow on from last week’s Case Study and as part of our review series from the 20 questions of 2017, Kim and Fulyana look at how to manage a team that has been brought back in to an office environment. There are so many factors contributing to a cohesive team, if you actually need one now, that the discussion covers both practical suggestions and experience based anecdotes.

In another case study from a listener, Kim and Fulyana look at ways a leader new to a team and an organisation can address the management of that team which appears to be demotivated by constant change and demanding deadlines.

We begin a series of “review” podcasts this week by looking back at some questions from 2017 that we promised to revisit…..and haven’t done so!

Today is about managing interruptions, whether they are considered good or bad. Can you clearly identify what an interruption is for you?

This week we have a case study from a listener who is concerned that his relationship with his boss has changed – he is feeling “ignored” in the sense of a marked lessening of interaction. Kim and Fulyana look at not just how this can be addressed but why it might be happening and whether it is a good or a bad sign.

In the final part of our conversation, Kim and Fulyana hear about the value of “material analysis” across the whole of an organisation and how that can incorporate sustainability, in business terms, in areas such as gender/pay equality, transport, logistics and resourcing.

We also get a sneak preview of the next book…..

We continue our conversation with John Pabon about sustainability, this week looking at the topic we didn’t have time for in our 2023 discussion – stakeholders.

Kim and Fulyana learn about the three rings of stakeholders and why taking time, lots of time, to listen to them, is vital for all areas of business.

John Pabon returns for another series of 3 podcasts to answer listeners’ questions and talk about sustainability, greenwashing, greenscamming and more.

This week Kim and Fulyana present one of the more interesting scenarios sent in by a listener.

In the final part of our discussion with John Tarnoff we learn how to identify our own “superpower” in terms of our careers. Jamie shares his journey to realise his “superpower” and we end by understanding that we are not human “beings” but rather human “becomings”!
