  • 'Sleep is For the Weak' vs. 'No Sleep Makes One Weak' with Dr Lindsay Browning

    Listen to this very real episode on the impact of sleep and lack of sleep & insomnia. While its ok for you to not sleep and try to function, please don't impose this thought process on your staff. The increasing number of stakeholders who expect workers to carry on with no sleep & with high levels of job related stress is hitting an all time high. While targets are important, and yes, having a workforce that understands this is paramount, is not to say that when a member of staff approaches you to say they cannot function properly in their day to day lives as they are having trouble sleeping you should tell them to 'man up' or 'carry on'. Shockingly, I face this with businesses all the time. Maybe if we all knew the dangerous impact that lack of sleep has on us, we might help promote healthy sleep which goes hand hand with work-life-balance. Listening to this episode is your first step in valuing your health and sleep. And doing something about it as an even further step in bettering the quality of your life. Enjoy.

  • Being Bullied or Being a Bully? Defining the Blurred Line ft Linda Crockett
    I have a conversation with Linda Crocket- workplace bullying expert in Canada. Almost all of us have a different definition to what bullying means or how behaviour is exactly defined. Is bullying and act or a behaviour? Is it even bullying if it’s between two professional adults in the workplace? The reason why organisations do not have clear policies on this is because of the very fact that these questions remain unanswered. But today, Linda makes it transparent for both employers and employees on warning signs and pre-aggression acts that lead to workplace bullying. We can all take something from this one. Enjoy.

  • Manage Tantrums at Home and Perfect Your Performance in the Boardroom ft Camilla McGill, Parent Coach
    A first in the Career Progression and Parenthood series. PARENT GUILT. This phrase resonates with all parents. This sense of guilt is oftentimes down to the fact that parents feel that being at work means that they are not being fully productive parents. This is entirely untrue and today I shift this mindset with my special guest Camilla McGill, founder of My Parenting Solutions. Camilla is a very successful business owner and coach and has over 20 years experience in this field. She says, it takes methodical and analytical approaches in dealing with parent guilt that plays a huge part in a parents feeling comfortable and confident that they are doing a great job. But parents also face backlash and judgement from managers who assume they cannot work effectively in their job whilst managing their children and tantrums at home. And as a result, such individuals are denied opportunities for growth and promotion as they are seen to be risk to the organisation. Dealing with tantrums and parent stresses doesn't at all mean that your performance at work takes a hit, but why do some employers still think this in 2021?! Camilla and I talk about some fantastic methods parents can use to manage tantrums at home so that you can go into work feeling confident that you are a great parent. This episode will REALLY change your thinking as an equal opportunities employer and as a working parent. Enjoy.
