  • #24 How to communicate in the workplace like a kidnap for ransom negotiator with Scott Walker, Author of Order Out Of Chaos and Kidnap for Ransom Negotiator
    Mar 16 2023

    In today's episode, I am speaking to Scott Walker. Scott is one of the world's most experienced kidnap for ransom negotiators. His experience has enabled him to develop a unique understanding of what makes people think, feel and act regardless of circumstances; particularly during times of conflict, crisis and adversity.

    Which frankly makes him the perfect person to give us the tools and tips to navigate the politics, difficulties and negotiations needed to master those days where you wish you could just get people to see your point of view in the workplace.

    His new book, Order Out Of Chaos is due out in May 2023, and is available to pre-order now on Amazon or via his website: https://www.scottwalkerbooks.co.uk/.

  • #23 Leading your team when you are going through personal change with Lizzi Whaley, CEO of Spaceworks Interior Architecture and Former Judge on The Block NZ.
    Mar 14 2023

    On today's episode, we are talking to Lizzi Whaley, CEO of Spaceworks Interior Architecture.

    Lizzi joined Spaceworks Interior Architecture in 2004. But when she heard her company was selling up, she decided (as a 28 year old, single mum living with her parents) that if the business was to be sold then she wanted to be the purchaser. She bought the company and became chief executive in 2006.

    We’ll discuss the mindset shift moving from employee to employer, the importance of focusing ‘in’ on your people and how to lead when you yourself are going through personal changes.

    As always, be sure to listen all the way through for all the good bits and for future episodes don’t forget to subscribe to our podcast.

  • #22 Why Workplace Culture is Everyone's Responsibility! with Jen Y from Intentional Generations
    Oct 3 2022

    This week I spoke to Jennifer Young from Intentional Generations. Jen focuses on wellbeing and creating intentionally positive company cultures. She started her company following her own experience in a toxic work environment and was conscious not only how it affected her mental health in the office but also how it affected everyone else around her.

    If our environment is toxic and we feel powerless within it, we become a product of our environment. So ask yourself what environments you sit in?

    In this podcast we discuss mental health. If any of these topics affect you please see below a list of helplines and helpsites. You are not alone in this.
