Jess Baker is a Chartered Psychologist, Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society and Author of the book, “The Super-Helper Syndrome: A Survival Guide for Compassionate People” which is for anyone who wants to understand how helping works and to be better at it. Mike Petrusky asks Jess why she believes that empathy in the workplace is often misunderstood, and she shares the difference between cognitive empathy and emotional empathy. She explains that compassionate leadership involves both empathy and taking action to relieve the suffering of others, which leads to better team performance and a more inclusive environment. Jess says that change management in the workplace should involve asking employees about their needs and how they would design their workspaces to optimize their well-being and productivity, but advises we ask more questions since the first answer may not always reveal the true needs or feelings of individuals. Mike and Jess share inspiration and encouragement as you seek to be a Workplace Innovator in your organization!

Discover how visionaries like Simon Rogerson from Octopus Energy harness their relentless energy and forward-thinking approach to fill market gaps with scalable business ideas. We'll also confront the challenges women face in entrepreneurship, examining why only a third of global businesses are women-owned and exploring solutions to bridge this leadership gap.What drives an entrepreneur to move toward opportunities rather than flee from less favourable situations? The answer lies in a proactive mindset. Drawing from personal experiences and observations, we shed light on how upbringing can shape entrepreneurial tendencies. We distinguish freelancers from entrepreneurs in terms of opportunity identification and venture creation and delve into intrapreneurship—where innovation thrives within established companies. The conversation does not shy away from the real-world hurdles faced by psychologists entering the consulting field, emphasizing the need for psychological safety to foster innovation.Unleash your entrepreneurial spirit by exploring the intersection of personality traits and successful business practices. Inspired by an interview with Simon Rogerson, we discuss how traits like curiosity, learning agility, and the ability to embrace failure are vital for success. Whether the entrepreneurial mindset is a state or a trait is a question worth pondering, as we explore how passion and risk-taking, are crucial elements of entrepreneurship.

This Episode we're heading back into the vaults to bring you the unabridged version of our fantastic and extremely popular interview with Bec McKeown, a chartered psychologist with extensive experience in carrying out applied research for organisations including the UK Ministry of Defence and the founder and director of Mind Science, an independent organisation that works with cybersecurity professionals.Ever wanted to know the psychology behind cybersecurity? Bec takes us an a fascinating journey into the mind as we get acquainted with a smorgasbord of psychological concepts to help you understand your cybersecurity posture - especially during a dreaded cybersecurity incident!Key Takeaways:The curse of knowledge: Understanding what it's like to not understand cybersecurity from a technical perspective can be an advantage in helping you communicate better. By putting yourself in the shoes of the listener, you can convey complex ideas in a way that is easy to understand and relatableMicrolearning: Nobody wants to sit in training for three hours! Microlearning helps by breaking up information into bite-sized chunks that are easy to digest. It's also important to account for different learning styles and provide information in various formats.Amygdala hijacking: Cybercriminals leverage amygdala hijacking, which occurs when the amygdala activates the fight-or-flight response when there is no serious threat to a person's safety. It's essential to recognize the contextual cue that led you to act that way and develop strategies to deal with it before it happens.Awareness does not equal change in behaviour: One size doesn't fit all, and quantitative is usually valued over qualitative, which needs to change.Focus on Impact Skills, Not Just Technical Knowledge: Decision-making, communication, and collaboration are the foundational skills needed to navigate complex cyber threats.Show NotesImmersive LabsBec's Article in Immersive Labs on Workforce ResiliencyChristian Hunt's episode - Compromising PositionsArticle on Theory X and Theory Y - Mind ToolsInfluence by Robert CialdiniActionable Gamification - Yu-Kai ChouKirkpatrick Model - Mind ToolsCopywrite movies.

Welcome to another exciting episode of "On the Brink with Andi Simon!" In this episode, we are thrilled to have John M. Fisher, an extraordinary management development and soft skill trainer who also holds the title of chartered psychologist. His expertise in understanding and navigating change is unparalleled, making him a valuable resource for our discussion today. As a corporate anthropologist, I always look for individuals who genuinely grasp the challenges of embracing change and making it a friend rather than a foe. John Fisher is one such individual who has dedicated his career to helping people navigate the complexities of personal and professional transformation. John's unique approach, which is centered around maximizing personal understanding, has proven to be highly effective in helping individuals adapt to new demands in their business environments and personal lives. One of the most impactful tools John has developed is the Change Curve, a robust model that illustrates the stages people must go through to let go of the past and envision a new future.

In this episode I have the privilege of talking to the gorgeous author Suzy Greaves about the vital skill of self-care and its foundational place in managing our wellbeing. Inner and outer care, self-respect, self-talk, boundaries and empowerment are just some of the topics we touch upon in this episode as Suzy shares her passion, compassion and wisdom.  Suzy is a mother of two, an author, Chartered Psychologist and Coach. She specialises in self-care, helping people manage their stress, emotions, and energetic bank balance. It was her life experience of motherhood colliding with the terminal illness of her father that sparked her passion for self-care which she now teaches to her clients, young and old, to cope during periods of stress, loss and change and to boost their resilience in the face of future challenges. Suzy is the Psychology Expert for wellbeing brand Neom Organics and is a founding member of the ‘Nourish' app. She figure-skated her way through her childhood, growing up on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, and now makes her home in the hills of Hertfordshire, UK. Her first book ‘The Self-Care Revolution' published by Aster came out in 2017, 'Stand Tall Like a Mountain: Mindfulness & Self-Care for Children and Parents' and 'The Little Book of Self-Care' came out in 2019. ‘Self-Care for Tough Times' and her first children's book ‘This Book Will (Help) Make You Happy' were published in 2021. Her first journal And Breathe,  Sit to Get Fit and her new deck of cards, “The Little Box of Self-Care” came out in 2022. Rest to Reset is hot off the press now, just in time to shake off the winter blues and boost the rebirth of Spring.   Join Suzy's Wellbeing Community at: Instagram: www.instagram.com/suzyreading/  Facebook: www.facebook.com/SuzyReadingPsychologyAndYoga/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SuzyReading   www.suzyreading.co.uk Grab a cuppa and let's chat.  Love kate x 

This week I'm delighted to speak to Cailie McGuire and Dr Daniel Brown about thriving in sport. Cailie is in her final year of her PhD at Queen's University. Her research interest is in sport psychology, specifically team dynamics: looking at how teammates interact with one another and how that influences individual and collective outcomes. Cailie's PhD specifically focuses on the importance of building trust between teammates, coaches and support staff to promote athlete thriving. Dan is a senior lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology at the University of Portsmouth and leads the undergraduate programme in Sport and Exercise Psychology there. He is a Chartered Psychologist of the British Psychological Society and a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. Dan's research centres on the psychology of human excellence and well-being (thriving). Cailie and Dan have written a paper along with Dr Desmond McEwan, Dr Rachel Arnold and Dr Luc Martin and led by Cailie entitled “Thriving together: conceptual and methodological considerations for examining thriving in interdependent sport”. Cailie and Dan take us through the paper and what it means in practice for coaches.
