In this episode of The Vibrant Workplace Podcast, Craig satdown with executive coach and speaker Philip Brady - and we went deep.

We shared stories we don’t normally talk about.

And from that place, we asked the bigger questions:

• What happens when we pretend employer branding is culture?
• Are people really leaving bad managers - or are wescapegoating them to protect broken systems?
• Can coaching be therapeutic without being therapy?
• What would it look like if we fasted from chaos, urgency, and overconsumption?

You won’t get easy answers here.

But you will get an honest conversation about how the worldof work needs to evolve - and why it starts with us.

If this resonates with you, please drop a comment and let usknow what you think!

In this special episode Craig is joined by Marc Vivas (CEO) and Markéta Bártová (HR Manager) as we explore life at a very special company – the very first company who ever took part in the Vibrant Workplace Accelerator, Nuvolar Works!

Being prepared to try things is a hallmark of a leader – and Nuvolar weren’t just trying something new – they were the first to do it. 

We explore why they were prepared to go first, what we learnt about their culture and what made Nuvolar Works the world’s first Verified Vibrant Workplace!

William has a particular distaste for the ‘dark arts’ of what he refers to as ‘phony psychometrics.’

We invited William onto the show to look at how and why these methods are being used and whether they have any credibility.
