   Rethinking Careers When No One Leaves

   n this episode, Lucy Adams is joined by Eva Murciano to explore one of the biggest challenges facing organisations today: how to keep careers moving in environments where people stay for a long time. Drawing on Eva’s experience at the European Central Bank, they unpack the tension between having a highly committed, purpose-driven workforce and the unintended consequences of low turnover; stagnation, limited progression, and skills that risk becoming outdated. Their conversation challenges the traditional idea of career progression as a ladder to climb. Instead, Lucy and Eva discuss the need to reframe careers around growth, skills, and experiences. They explore why both employees and managers often resist internal mobility, and what organisations can do to shift mindsets. From redefining success to making movement the norm rather than the exception, this episode offers practical insight into what it really takes to future-proof careers. Eva also shares how the ECB is experimenting with a structured approach to mobility through its “3–5–8 model,” encouraging employees to think proactively about their next move. It’s an honest discussion about what works, what’s still evolving, and why HR has a critical role to play in nudging both individuals and leaders towards more dynamic, flexible career paths.

Inside a recent episode

Is HR ready to become People and Culture?

Published 1 Sept 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] So it's having a direct impact on the culture of the organization. Embedded in that are the Kaizen principles of continuous improvement, much more sort of agility, more modern thinking about how we drive change in the organization. But to all intents and purposes, that space then becomes the de facto center of excellence, which is driving the culture in the organization. And that answers a really important question of who owns the culture of this organisation. Because when I ask that question, when I do cultural audits, I get the same answer. Well, everyone does. Maybe no one does. Oh, I don't know. […]
