  • 213. Abundant Mindset: Motivating a Lethargic Team
    Nov 29 2024

    Send us a text

    In the final of our 5-part 'mid-decade culture round-up' series we explore the very real topic of creating an abundant mindset within a team especially through times of ongoing change and transformation. Could it be that many workplaces are requiring above average levels of energy, innovation and collaboration from their people, at the very point in the decade where morale and optimism is lower than average?

    Rather than focusing on the cause (we guess its a complicated mix of post-pandemic fatigue, trading challenges, juggling personal responsibilities alongside work) we take a practical look at what enables an abundant mindset to become a positive reality within a team. We share our on PAR tool (thanks Sarah Walker) and examples from real life of what has worked to cheer up a team and focus on an optimistic future (e,g, the Care Label idea)

  • 212. Enabling Intergenerational Teamwork Through Compassion
    Nov 22 2024

    Send us a text

    As part of our 'mid-decade culture round-up' focus we take a look at intergenerational working and how to embrace the opportunities that diversity of age and experience can give. There are currently 5 generations who are in the 2024 workplace, meaning that great-grandchildren could be part of a team potentially for the first time in history. So what does 'working hard' mean to you?

    Potentially we are influenced by the messaging in our early years in school and work which can lead to some differences in how each generation perceives another in what they bring to the workplace.

    We explore the barriers, enablers and benefits from enabling early/mid/late career people working well together. With compassion as the enabler, we look at practical ways to navigate differences in perception that may exist e.g. around work ethic, life/work balance, adhering to authority figures and patience for promotion.

    A useful listen for anyone who has influence over hiring decisions, we also give examples of where purposefully seeking different generations to work together can bring increased levels of innovation, collaboration and energy.
