Laura Avery joins Anthony Price, both from SEEDL to talk Mental Health. 

They explore what employers can do, what management can look at as best practice and also consider what we can all do more to support people around their mental wellbeing. 

SEEDL users can also watch a video optimised version at SEEDL.com

Anthony from SEEDL is joined by Laura Avery-Jackson (Mental Health Lead for SEEDL) and Becky Fussey (Mental Health Ambassador) who have lived experiences with suicide, and mental health issues. 

This podcast is a audio version of a live panel event which was broadcast on SEEDL and social media on Monday 8th September 2025, coinciding with Suicide Prevention Month and Days across the globe. 

If you are experiencing a difficult time, please do not suffer alone. SEEDL offer free access to wellness courses along with telephone support services from the Samaritans - who you can call any time (from the UK) on 116123.

JB and Ant are back on tour with their microphone, enabling joyous conversation in 'exotic' places. This week, in an industrial park, near Barcelona. 

Joined by an employee of a customer, Duncan (Duncy to JB and Ant) joins them to chat about generational differences, following 2 pieces of research by HR Magazine and SEEDL. 

Additionally, they discuss SEEDL's partner Perkbox's recent survey about manager disconnect with company leadership. 

That and their usual bants!

Are we going to see the return of the micromanager? If the new government bring in new employment laws, Ant & JB consider if it will. Will recruiting change? Will performance management dominate the inbox and day job of the leader? Or something else. 

That and your questions at [email protected]

It's been a while since JB and Ant did the pod thing, and we felt it! You'll be pleased (or horrified) to hear that this is a start of a rather long series. Given Ant and JB will be back on tour a fair bit in the coming months, you'll be hearing a lot more from them!

Today, Ant reveals there's a closer connection to Colleague Engagement and Share price, than the impact of Customer Satisfaction scores. What can leaders do, to stop it. 

Ant and JB also talk about Matrix (and it's decision making complexities), and the importance of a coalition of thinking (or something to that effect). 

As ever, listener questions welcome, [email protected]

Ant from the SEEDL Global Leadership Podcast is joined by Jo Nash Chief Learning Officer of SEEDL to spend an hour talking all things Learning and Development. As streamed on LinkedIn and across our SEEDL user network. 

After scuppering their recording from Spain, Ant and JB are back on home soil. 

Today talking all things leadership including 'emotional intelligence' in leadership and listener questions on dealing with those who think length of service should be treated as a capability score. 

Note, there's a hint of politics in here too... not too much!

It's the first episode of 2024. We've been at these podcasts on and off for 6 years, so to be honest, we decided to 'coast it'. 

But it turned out to not be a badd'en.... 

With all the chaos in the world, we couldn't think of anything worse than being a 'world leader' and yet - we found ourselves concluding that actualy being a leader in a business could be the sanctuary you and our direct reports could really value. 

it's full of swears today (unusually Ant was ahead of JB for a change), so marked explicit for your auditary guidance. 

That and your listener questions. Keep 'em coming! [email protected] 

Well - oddly, we decided to record a Global Leadership Podcast with Joanna Nash covering a multitude of subjects!

Sales Lesdership and the role it has in wider leadership skillsets. 

Why do we lose new hires within 90 days?

And why does JB want to now be known as Annabel?

All this and more!
