Better Me podcast #7.5
<p>In this episode of the Better Me Like podcast, <a target="_blank" href="https://substack.com/profile/237428863-simon-sparks">Simon Sparks</a> and me reflect on our previous recording (what is now known as ‘Pod No.7’), where we had an antagonistic conversation about football philosophy. Simon maintains we also explored themes of vulnerability, authenticity, and the challenges faced by leaders and founders, but all I recall was the conversation after the recording, which was far more insightful. </p><p>Needless to say, Pod No.7 still hasn’t seen the light of day, and we now offer you Pod No.7.5, were we explore insights from our recent panel on AI and innovation, were we emphasise the importance of psychological safety in the workplace and the role of self-awareness in fostering a supportive environment. We also discuss the role of employers in fostering a safe environment, the need for individual responsibility, and the impact of recent cultural shifts on EDI programs. </p><p>The conversation also touches on the future of work, the emergence of new industries, and the need for creativity in an evolving landscape, and we wrap with a chat about the concept of 'left-handed activities' as a metaphor for personal growth, and the significance of gratitude and presence in professional settings.</p><p>Dive in where it’s most interesting to you…</p><p>* Introduction and Context of Episode 7 (<strong>00:00)</strong></p><p>* Navigating Vulnerability and Authenticity (<strong>03:06)</strong></p><p>* Reflections on Leadership and Authenticity (<strong>06:01)</strong></p><p>* Insights from the AI and Innovation Panel (<strong>09:03)</strong></p><p>* The Importance of Psychological Safety (<strong>12:05)</strong></p><p>* The Role of Self in Psychological Safety (<strong>14:54)</strong></p><p>* Future of Work and New Industries (<strong>18:00)</strong></p><p>* Closing Thoughts on Scaffolding and Support (<strong>21:12)</strong></p><p>* Cultural Shifts and EDI Programs (<strong>27:50)</strong></p><p>* The Role of Employers in Psychological Safety (<strong>30:07)</strong></p><p>* Beyond Compliance: Building a Safe Culture (<strong>32:19)</strong></p><p>* The Importance of Individual Responsibility (<strong>34:35)</strong></p><p>* Reflections on Recent Events and Learning (<strong>35:23)</strong></p><p>* The Concept of Left-Handed Activities (<strong>40:05)</strong></p><p>* Gratitude and Presence in Events (<strong>45:00)</strong></p><p>Let us know what you think, we’re always open to feedback, comments or gentle social heckling.

Better Me podcast #5
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://substack.com/profile/237428863-simon-sparks">Simon Sparks</a> and I continue our weekly conversation delving into our respective experiences, learnings, and reflections on the past week. </p><p>What are we hoping to achieve through sharing this conversation? - it’s a question we asked ourselves a lot before pushing this out into the social-sphere. </p><p>I think it’s an altruistic-drive to help others through being open, honest, and vulnerable with our own experiences, combined with an reluctance to writing long-form blog posts that neither of us would read - so why make other folks read them! </p><p>This week we dive back into a couple of familiar topic - the nuances of corporate communication and the importance of intuition in decision-making - and then we focus on the value of journaling, techniques for effective goal setting, and visualisation. </p><p>Then we jump straight into the dynamics of leadership, emphasising the importance of setting punchy goals, fostering deeper connections, and the role of vulnerability in creating an authentic leadership style. All this from a single comment about 1:1’s in the corporate world. </p><p>We round off by an attempt at philosophical reflection by highlighting the need for critical thinking in a digital age and the importance of curating positive contributions to AI and information sources. </p><p>Dive in where it’s most interesting to you…</p><p>* Introduction and Weekly Reflections (<strong>00:00)</strong></p><p>* Navigating Corporate Speak and Communication (<strong>04:52)</strong></p><p>* Shooting from the Hip: Intuition in Action (<strong>10:01)</strong></p><p>* The Importance of Reflection and Journaling (<strong>14:58)</strong></p><p>* Future Self Visualisation and Goal Setting (<strong>19:55)</strong></p><p>* Setting Punchy Goals for Engagement (<strong>25:59)</strong></p><p>* Transforming One-on-One Dynamics (<strong>27:22)</strong></p><p>* Building Deeper Connections as a Leader (<strong>28:26)</strong></p><p>* The Role of Vulnerability in Leadership (<strong>30:46)</strong></p><p>* Distinguishing Vulnerability from Transparency (<strong>32:46)</strong></p><p>* The Importance of Authenticity in Leadership (<strong>34:52)</strong></p><p>* Navigating Change and Behavioural Shifts (<strong>36:43)</strong></p><p>* The Influence of Generative AI on Authenticity (<strong>37:06)</strong></p><p>* Finding Quality Information in a Digital Age (<strong>39:10)</strong></p><p>* The Need for Critical Thinking (<strong>41:06)</strong></p><p>* The Disconnect in AI Adoption (<strong>43:06)</strong></p><p>* Curating Positive Contributions to AI (<strong>45:18)</strong></p><p>* Personal Growth and Reflection (<strong>50:14)</strong></p><p>Let us know what you think, we’re always open to feedback, comments or gentle social heckling.
