That email you didn't send, the calculation you misread, the realisation that the deadline was yesterday... all followed by a sinking feeling, a quickening of the breath and the realisation that it's your fault. Fear not! Handled well, a mistake at work can become a great opportunity. 你没有发送的那封电子邮件，你误读的计算，意识到截止日期是昨天......所有这些都伴随着一种沮丧的感觉，呼吸加快，并意识到这是你的错。 不要害怕！ 如果处理得当，工作中的错误可以成为一个很好的机会。 Start by owning up to it. It may be tempting to cover up a mistake, but any deception is unlikely to last for long and could delay attempts to put right the problem. And that's next – try to resolve the problems that you've created. Being proactive and coming to your manager with suggestions is likely to help you regain trust. Psychologists tell us that we tend to have a negativity bias – we are more likely to remember negative things. This is why executive coach Dina Denham Smith tells us we need to make our progress in fixing the issue clear and visible. It's also important to apologise. Showing genuine remorse demonstrates that we can take ownership of our blunders. 首先要承认这一点。 掩盖错误可能很诱人，但任何欺骗都不太可能持续很长时间，并且可能会延迟纠正问题的尝试。 接下来就是尝试解决你所造成的问题。 积极主动并向经理提出建议可能会帮助您重新获得信任。 心理学家告诉我们，我们往往有消极偏见——我们更有可能记住消极的事情。 这就是为什么执行教练迪娜·德纳姆·史密斯告诉我们，我们需要让解决问题的进展变得清晰可见。 道歉也很重要。 表现出真正的悔恨表明我们可以承担自己的错误。 As well as looking at how we make amends for our mix-ups to other people, we also need to be honest with ourselves. Removing emotion is important. Shame from making a mistake can cloud our judgement when deciding how to respond. It can also affect our perception of the mistake's seriousness – it's easy to exaggerate how bad something really is. Everyone makes mistakes. What's really important is how we address them. It's important to be reflective. Consider if there's an underlying cause for the mistake, and how to prevent future slip-ups. It can also be useful to seek advice from someone who's had similar experiences in the past. Combined with our own reflections, this can be a powerful way to grow in our job and be more successful. 除了考虑如何弥补对他人的误解之外，我们还需要对自己诚实。 消除情绪很重要。 犯错误所带来的羞耻感会影响我们在决定如何应对时的判断力。 它还会影响我们对错误严重性的看法——很容易夸大事情的严重程度。 每个人都会犯错误。 真正重要的是我们如何解决这些问题。 反思很重要。 考虑是否存在导致错误的根本原因，以及如何防止将来出现失误。 向过去有过类似经历的人寻求建议也很有用。 结合我们自己的反思，这可能是我们工作成长和取得更大成功的有力途径。 Academics Jasmine Virhia and Grace Lordan highlight research showing that workplaces which replace fear and blame around mistakes with opportunities for self-reflection are more psychologically safe. This allows people to learn from their mistakes, grow their skills, improve processes and ultimately productivity. Handled in the right way, by both employees and employers, mistakes can become a powerful tool for improvement. 学者 Jasmine Virhia 和 Grace Lordan 强调研究表明，用自我反思的机会取代对错误的恐惧和责备的工作场所在心理上更安全。 这使人们能够从错误中吸取教训，提高技能，改进流程并最终提高生产力。 如果员工和雇主都以正确的方式处理错误，错误可以成为改进的有力工具。词汇表deadline 截止日期sinking feeling 对即将发生的坏事的担忧和不安quickening 加速fault 过错，责任own up 承认或坦白（错误）cover up 掩盖deception 欺骗put right 纠正resolve 解决proactive 积极的，主动的regain trust 重获信任negativity bias 消极偏见，更倾向于关注和记忆负面的事情remorse 悔恨，自责take ownership 承担责任和义务blunder 愚蠢的错误make amends 做出弥补mix-up 错误cloud one's judgement 影响某人的判断perception 认知，看法address 处理，解决reflective 自省的，反思的underlying 根本的，潜在的slip-up 失误reflection 反思，深思
Confidence vs. CompetenceIn the latest episode of Workforce, Dr. Grace Lordan takes us on an intriguing journey through the behavioural science of workplace success. The conversation opens with a bold statement: confidence often carries more weight than competence when it comes to career advancement, but is this fair? And more importantly, is it beneficial for individuals and organisations in the long run? Grace and her expert guests delve into the historical context of confidence as a signal for competence, discussing its evolutionary roots and its shaky relevance in today's complex professional landscape. They also shine a light on the power of rivalry as a motivator and how technology can help identify true competence, leveling the playing field for all job seekers.Listen, learn, and let's transform the workplace together.

As commuters headed for morning trains, the Bank of England made a bombshell announcement - it's stepping in again to try and restore market conditions following the chaos after the Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng's mini-Budget.The Bank announced at 7am it would expand buying emergency gilts, amid “material risk” warnings to the UK economy's stability caused by “dysfunction” from the mini-Budget fallout.Bank chiefs say the institution would buy up to £5 billion of index-linked debt, known as ‘linkers', alongside its previously announced purchase of up to £65 billion worth of conventional long-dated government bonds.It comes after the Bank's first emergency intervention when the mini-Budget sparked a tumble in the pound - leading to fears some pension funds could collapse.All this follows wage figures showing a gulf between earnings and inflation, and shoppers face paying £643 more a year for food.So, what's on Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey's mind, how safe are pension funds and why are we still not being told what the Office for Budget Responsibility thinks?Deputy Prime Minister Thérèse Coffey responded to the move that she was “confident” that people's pensions are safe.To find out what all this means for the pound in your pocket and the winter ahead, we're joined by Dr Grace Lordan, a labour economist at the London School of Economics.We discuss gilts, personal finance, government stalling and hopes for Kwarteng's forthcoming Halloween budget.

Salaries are often kept secret in most workplaces - but times are changing. The BBC's Deborah Weitzmann discusses implications for pay transparency policies and the gender wage gap. Deborah visits Flash Pack, a travel firm in London where staff members are open about their salaries. She travels to New York City where employers are preparing for a new law requiring them to post clear salary bands in job listings later this year - following the US state of Colorado. She speaks to Scott Goldshine, general manager of Manhattan-based deli Zabars. Deborah also hears from salary expert David Turetsky about why some people find conversations around pay difficult, and Dr Grace Lordan from the London School of Economics explains how openness about pay might benefit women and address the gender pay gap. Presented and produced by Deborah Weitzmann. (Image: An office meeting. Credit: Getty)

Change Makers: Leadership, Good Business, Ideas and Innovation
Michael Hayman welcomes Dr. Grace Lordan; an economist, Professor of Behavioural Science and founding director of The Inclusion Initiative at the London School of Economics. Grace's research has been conducted throughout her career with a singular objective: to establish why some individuals succeed in life and others do not. She is an expert on the effects of bias discrimination and technology changes and sits on the UK Government Social Mobility Task Force and the Women in Finance Charter's advisory board. The Inclusion Initiative is a research centre established in 2020, aiming to bring behavioural science insights to firms to allow them to enhance the inclusion of all talent. It also provides studies, measurement frameworks and training to create more inclusive business leaders in the UK. Last year, Grace published Think Big, Take Small Steps and Build the Future You Want, a practical framework for aspiring business leaders on how to use behavioural insights to achieve the future that they seek.
What does hybrid working mean for employee wellbeing? What really makes us happy at work? How do organisations maintain culture in a virtual world? What does inclusive leadership look like? And can Behavioural Science help you ask for a pay rise? As we emerge from a 2 year experiment in virtual working, the world of work looks very different. Grace Lordan, founder of The Inclusion Initiative at the LSE, shares her thoughts on how we can reimagine work.
Dr Grace Lordan is the author of Think Big, the Founding Director of The Inclusion Initiative at the London School of Economics and an Associate Professor at the London School of Economics. Grace is an economist and is an expert on the determinants of individual success, labour markets and skills, the future of work and creating inclusive leaders.Buy Think Big here: https://amzn.to/38NZ8vm Sponsorships & partners:- Sons: Sons.ie | Sons.co.uk and use code KICKOFFSESSIONS40 for 40% off- ExpressVPN: ExpressVPN.com/kickoffsessions and get 3 extra months free- Buzzsprout: Buzzsprout.com and receive a $20 Amazon Gift Card(00:00) Sponsorships: Sons.ie | Sons.co.uk(01:48) Introduction(04:01) How do you find the right career path?

We're often told we should have clear goals for ourselves. In fact, as we've heard from guests like Marc Effron and Grace Lordan in the past, there is a connection between effective goal-setting and high performance. The thing is, many of us still really struggle with this idea, so I wanted to explore it some more.And I figured if you want to dive deep into a subject, we may as well invite one of the world's leading experts onto the show. Today's guest is Emily Balcetis. She's an Associate Professor of Psychology at New York University, where she runs the Social Perception Action and Motivation research lab. Or SPAM for short. Emily and her team have pioneered the scientific investigation of behavioural science and motivation. Their work has uncovered previously unknown strategies that increase, sustain, and direct people's efforts to meet their goals.She also explores these ideas in her excellent book, Clearer, Closer, Better, and with us today on the Future Work/Life podcast.Our conversation starts by examining why materialising goals is crucial to achieving them before digging into the relative benefits of a narrow focus of attention and applying a wide bracket.Along the way, we discuss how to motivate ourselves to pursue big, long-term goals and why, although vision boards can help us discover purpose, used in isolation, they can actually be detrimental to our success.I love the way Emily reframes goal-setting – literally, as her work is all focused on the power of our vision. She gives some fantastic practical examples of visual tactics that can help us meet and exceed our goals, all of which help build a tool kit for success.LINKS:Emily's bookThe Social Perception Action and Motivation research labFuture Work/Life newsletterFuture Work/Life website See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
In today's episode, we chat with the brilliant Dr Grace Lordan. Dr Lordan is the Founding Director of The Inclusion Initiative, an Associate Professor at the London School of Economics and Political Science and also serves as an expert advisor to the UK Government. As an academic, Dr Lordan's research is focused on quantifying the benefits of inclusion within and across firms and designing interventions that level the playing field for under-represented talent. Her work has appeared in numerous prestigious academic journals coupled with the Financial Times and Harvard Business Review. In March 2021, Grace published her first book 'Think Big: Take Smalls Steps and Build The Future You Want', an evidence-based guide that looks at how your small actions today will determine your future. In today's conversation, we delve into Grace's work covering tonnes of behavioural science concepts including how our emotions influence decision making, the relationship between gender and risk aversion and why we fear failure. You'll leave with a better understanding of why some people stumble in their journeys, and why others succeed and actionable steps to create the future you want.

Are you thinking big enough about your retirement? The traditional one-size-fits-all retirement isn't the right fit for many people today. You can create a version that's best for you. Dr. Grace Lordan, author of Think Big, Take Small Steps and Build the Future You Want explains how findings from behavioral science can help you do just that, by overcoming cognitive biases and other obstacles. Many of my favorite books for retirement aren't about retirement, but the principles can give you an edge in thinking big and building your future. We discuss: Her idea of ME+ in Think Big How the concept of Your Future Self can help you think big Why new can narratives help us When the “stories we tell ourselves” get in our way How cognitive biases present obstacles A cognitive bias many people aren't aware of – but should be The dangers of all or nothing thinking Why identifying and managing your Time Sinkers can be a game changer How small, positive actions done regularly drive make progress Why being compassionate toward others matters Grace Lordan joins us from London. __________________________ Bio Dr Grace Lordan is the Founding Director of The Inclusion Initiative and an Associate Professor at the London School of Economics and Political Science.

There's lots of things that are going on that can distract us from investing in our future selves. So, it's really bringing the idea of yourself, not just the kind of vision and the lifestyle the person will actually have, but what they will actually be doing on a Monday to Friday [basis] in life is really what gets you there - through imagination. I can't reiterate enough how well visualization works to bring the future to life. But it also works to bring the future into the present day, which is really when you needed to get motivated to take these small steps that will get you there." On Small Steps and a New Narrative "I think fundamentally the stories that we tell ourselves define our actions. So if you believe that you don't deserve something, you're probably never going to get it. If you believe that you don't belong to be in a particular situation, you're unlikely to find yourself in that situation. If you believe that you don't have enough time, which is a common kind of self-destructive narrative, then you're you're definitely not going to be able to do the things that you want to do.

After a short interlude over the Christmas holidays, we're back with a brand new series. Back, in fact, a little earlier than planned. Why? Partly because I've got some wonderful guests lined up to share their stories and insights with you over the next couple of months, but more specifically to today's episode because we start by talking about new year's resolutions and goal setting.My guest is Grace Lordan. She is an Associate Professor in Behavioural Science and Director of The Inclusion Initiative at the London School of Economics and Political Science. She's also the author of Thing Big: Take Small Steps and Build the Future You Want.We have a fascinating discussion in which we explore the role of talent, hard work and luck in shaping your career. Grace explains why our emotions matter when it comes to how we receive feedback and act upon it, and how to ensure we feel like we're constantly moving forward towards our goals. All of which requires resilience and a willingness not only to accept failure but to learn from it. Finally, we discuss what the future holds with a wide lens – how, for example, people may need to accept a 'low-stuff life' – and from a personal perspective, why we should embrace uncertainty and stop striving to be in control of everything you do.If you haven't already, please also subscribe to this podcast and join thousands of other people interested in reading my analysis and insights on the future of work by signing up to the Future Work/Life newsletter.

On the first episode of Series 2 of the WorkL Happiness Podcast we speak with Grace Lordan, the Founding Director of the Inclusion Initiative. A key objective of Grace's work within her field is to research the benefits of inclusion within and across firms aswell as levelling the playing field for under represented individuals.
What a year for books 2021 has been! It seems like authors, editors and publishers have all been working overtime this year to bring us some incredible new content. Books that have challenged our beliefs, calmed our anxieties and transformed our habits. To help us with the mammoth job of summarizing the best behavioral science books from 2021, we are joined by the incredible Louise Ward, who has read over 100 books this year! Louise is the co-host of the Behavioural Science Club, a LinkedIn group established in June 2020 now with over 5,000 members. If you haven't yet joined the club, you definitely should. Today. Alongside co-host Prakash Sharma, the Behavioural Science Club interviews top authors each week about fascinating new insights in human behavior. In our discussion with Louise, we noticed some trends among our favorite books. One is that we are moving past the presumption that humans are flawed and irrational. Books such as Useful Delusions and Nudge focus instead on the evolutionary usefulness of our biases and heuristics. In addition, we loved that after reading books on heavy topics such as suffering (The Sweet Spot), racial inequalities (The Person You Mean to Be) or conspiracy theories (How to Talk to a Science Denier), we were still left with a feeling of hope and optimism. And if you're new to behavioral science and wondering how to get started or underestimating the impact you can make as an individual, there was an empowering theme to this year's books too. Dive into You Have More Influence Than You Think to recognize how you can make an impact on people, You're Invited to reflect on the connections you make in your life or Non Obvious Megatrends to start noticing more of the world around you. We would LOVE to hear your favorite books of 2021. Did your favorites overlap with ours?

As the first season of the podcast draws to a close I look back at some of the most inspiring moments from the season including from conversations with Ben Francis, Krissy Cela, Chris Williamson, Unjaded Jade, Mrwhosetheboss and Dr Grace Lordan. One of the biggest lessons I've learned from all the guests who've appeared this season is that we should embrace uncertainty and the idea of having a plan is a bit of a myth because really we're all working things out as we go along. I also want to say a big thank you if you've tuned into the podcast each week and an even bigger thank you if you've left a review on apple podcasts and subscribed because that really does help other people hear about the podcast. I hope you enjoy this season round-up and I'll see you in season 2.FULL EPISODES ⬇️E1 Ben Francis E8 Krissy Cela E9 Chris Williamson E2 Unjaded Jade E11 MrwhosethebossE6 Dr Grace Lordan

The UK's financial industry remains a 'Boys' Club,' despite years of pressure to hire more women and close the wage gap. That's according to disclosures by large institutions on the difference in compensation between male and female employees. The discrepancy is tied to the lack of women in senior management roles. And it's a problem that's getting worse in several companies. Grace Lordan is an associate professor in behavioral science at the London School of Economics. She's also the founding director of the Inclusion Initiative. She tells us why there's much more room for progress in the fight for pay equality. #InsuranceFirms #UKBanks #PayGap #Inequality

Have you been struggling, of late, to tick something - anything - off your to-do list? We’re right there with you - in the procrastination zone. A mental state we promise ourselves time and time again that we won’t slip back into. But, for many of us, changes to usual routines and motivations have been disrupted during the pandemic - with productivity taking a goal-busting nose-dive. Which is why, in this episode, rather than avoid the problem and hope it will go away, we’re tackling the issue of procrastination head-on – discussing the tools and techniques you can use to encourage yourself to be more productive and, ultimately, create more space for the good stuff. As you’ll learn, you’re not a procrastinator. You simply procrastinate - and we’re here to help you climb out of that habit so you can build more positive ones. Our guests this week are Dr Grace Lordan, associate professor in behavioural science at the London School of Economics and author of Think Big, and also Grace Beverley, founder of apparel brand TALA as well as workout app Shreddy, and author of Working Hard, Hardly Working. We discuss the most common triggers for procrastination, and how it can take different forms with different people. There’s also great points made about the counterproductive cult of busyness, and why comparing yourself to others in a similar professional space is a disaster for productivity – let alone happiness. Plus, there’s chat about finding your own hype man - or woman - why showing up for yourself in small increments is key and how to have respect for all those other elements of life the matter to you while still flourishing at work.

Founding Director of The Inclusion Initiative, Associate Professor in Behvioural Science at LSE, Dr. Grace Lordan shares her views on diversity, cultivating a growth mindset and why people succeed. She is the author of [“Think Big”](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Think-Big-Small-Steps-Future/dp/0241420164), a book about giving tips to people who want to achieve their goals in life. Graham and Grace start the podcast by talking about issues on diversity and taking risks in career advancement. > If you have skills, talents, and ability, even if they don't match the role that you're actually going for, a risk loving person is much more likely to get it because they'll be putting their hat in the ring much more often. Grace then discusses why diverse thinking is not confined to race or gender alone. > Diversity is really only a pulse point for diversity of thinking. So, all the evidence that we have that says diversity is good from business comes from diverse thinking, and having people who have these different perspectives. Describing the book, Think Big, Grace breaks it down into how thinking big and acting small can help with achieving life goals. > It's about kind of reframing how we think about big achievements, and demonstrating through behavioral science that it's possible to have big achievements... if you're a bit more patient with yourself and you commit to very, very small changes every week. Graham also asked about time auditing and how important it is to make time for other people and things in your life. Grace comes up with a great tip for those struggling in this area. > If you're somebody who says to yourself routinely, “I don't have time to commit to small steps for my future.”, take a week and write everything that you actually did in the week and then look back and see whether things were actually productive, and what things you can actually cut out. Grace shares her battle with procrastination. > With procrastination, just because you're aware of it doesn't mean that you will actually ever do anything about it. And not even that you'll ever do anything about it, but it doesn't mean that you'll actually overcome it. Graham and Grace end the conversation by listing down valuable skills one can learn for the future. > Definitely more tech and digital. But I really like soft skills. And the other reason why I like them is because actually, they've been shown to be malleable across our lifetime. So, whereas it's harder to teach people as they get older digital skills, it's very easy to teach them and to get them to improve on things like creativity, adaptability, and, curiosity.
