Episode Summary: In this episode of the Emotion at Work podcast, host Phil Willcox dives into the integral role of emotion in building and sustaining high-performing teams. Following on from the previous discussion on meetings, accountability, relationships and decision-making, Phil shifts focus to four additional critical areas: communication, wellbeing, recognition and performance. With emotion woven throughout these elements, Phil shares insights and actionable advice for creating environments where people feel safe, optimistic, and confident. Phil explores: How communication strategies—formal and informal—impact team dynamics and project outcomes. The significance of emotional wellbeing, particularly in high-pressure environments, and practical ways to support it. The power of recognition and fostering a culture of appreciation to amplify team collaboration. The emotional foundation of performance and how feelings shape outcomes and success. Expect reflective questions to challenge your thinking and help embed emotion-led practices in your own team. What's Next? Future episodes promise to expand on these themes with expert guests, including High Performing Teams coach Kim Brosnan and clients who've embraced the emotion-led blueprint. Look forward to hearing their stories and experiences. Contact Information: For feedback, questions, or to connect with Phil on phil@emotionatwork.co.uk

Emotion at Work Podcast – High-Performing Teams: Part 1 In this episode, Phil Willcox explores the critical role of emotions in fostering high-performing teams. This is the first part of a mini-series that delves into the essence of high performance and how emotions drive it. What's in This Episode? Phil dives deep into: Emotion-Driven Performance: Why emotions are at the heart of high-performing teams and the idea that "you can't think your way into high performance." Blueprint for High-Performing Teams: Introducing a framework developed through extensive work with construction industry teams, with insights shared to test and apply more broadly. Key Levers for High Performance: Covering four out of eight factors from the blueprint: Meetings – Using the "POST" approach (Purpose, Outcome, Structure, Timing) to ensure meetings propel performance forward. Accountability – Clarifying roles and responsibilities to drive efficiency and effectiveness. Decision-Making – Leveraging strategies like premortems to anticipate and navigate challenges effectively. Relationships – Building trust, support, and constructive challenge to strengthen team dynamics. Reflection Prompts Throughout the episode, Phil poses thought-provoking questions to encourage deeper reflection, such as: Are your meetings designed to enhance or hinder performance? How clear are accountabilities within your team? What would a premortem reveal about your decision-making? Are relationships in your team rooted in trust, support, and compassion? A Glimpse Ahead This mini-series will continue with a focus on the remaining four levers: Well-being, Performance, Recognition, and Communication.

When your team are faced with a crisis, you want them to be prepared. But how do you build those capabilities when crises are rare, and you hope they never occur? In this week's episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Ross G and Owen explore the use of simulations to build capability. We're joined by Chris Peschanel, who ran crisis management at Bayer Pharmaceuticals for 12 years, and by Phil Willcox from St8 of Play. We discuss: ·       why simulations are the best approach for developing real-world skills in crisis management ·       the role that emotions play in making these learning experiences memorable ·       what a simulation sounds like in practice and how to create your own. You can find out more about simulations from St8 of Play. In ‘What I Learned This Week', Owen shared how GiveDirectly increase donations.

Friction is often thought of negatively, however, let's ponder how friction may indeed be an essential element we all need in order to perform at our peak. In this podcast we discuss our feelings, emotions and how we physically respond to different situations. Whether aware of it, or not, our brain is constantly stimulated and reacting to the environment we are in; be it a busy office, full of noise and energy, or conversely a remote location, a place for focus in our isolated setting. Isn't it interesting how both can be equally full of distraction - which is also often a source of friction. No matter our chosen or prescribed workplace, ultimately how we think and feel impacts how we perform in all aspects of life. Join us in our latest episode where we explore how people function and what we can do to influence our performance, as we dive in to explore how neuroscience, our bodies and our behaviours play a key role in all of our personal development. Please contact our guest experts via the links below:Hilary Scarlett https://www.linkedin.com/in/hilaryscarlett/, Phil Willcox https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-willcox-02013425/ Stella Collins https://www.linkedin.com/in/stellacollinslearningrevolution/ And as mentioned in this episode, here is a link to David Pearl's Street Wisdom:www.streetwisdom.org____________________________________________________________________________________________________Learning from the Edges is hosted by Michelle Parry-Slater, Director, Kairos Modern Learning.Michelle is the author of The Learning and Development Handbook - a practical guide for all professionals looking to offer effective, efficient, enjoyable and engaging people development, but not sure where to start.

The range of emotions we are allowed to show in the workplace is fairly limited. We can be happy, we can be passionate, we can be enthusiastic. But anything beyond that is often seen as unprofessional or inappropriate. Is it time we rethink the role of emotion at work? This week on the podcast, Ross D and Ross G are joined by Emotion at Work's Phil Willcox to discuss: how emotion manifests itself in the workplace the range of emotions that are acceptable at work the role HR/L&D can play in creating emotional 'safe spaces'  If you'd like to share your thoughts on the show, you can find us on Twitter @ross__dickie, @RossGarnerGP and @PhilWillcox.

In this episode, Sukh explores what emotions are. He talks about his development of thinking of the topic of emotional intelligence and the different ways we talk about emotions and what they do for us as humans. He also discusses how he believes our thinking and the quality of our thinking is directly affected by the emotions we have. He argues that it's possible to think beyond the emotional reaction we're having and cultivating more empathy with others to allow for better thinking to take place.

In this episode, Sukh has guest Sarah Boyd on the show, and they talk about a range of things for how positive psychology is put into practice. Sarah's main area of work focuses on healthcare in the UK and enabling better change within the NHS. They talk about appreciate inquiry as an approach for organisational change, and how it utilises positive psychology principles to enable generative dialogue and focusing on strengths and achievements. They talk about the use or language and how the language we use determines what we think and believe. They explore all manners of topics related to positive psychology with some quality thinking about approaches to change management, the importance of taking small steps, the interplay of positive psychology and life events that are challenging, and how we can think about parenting in different ways too. As it's still early day's in Sukh's world of podcasting, the audio edit isn't as well balanced as it could be. Please do forgive Sukh's tinny and sharp speech, he promises not to do it again! You can connect with Sukh and Sarah on Twitter - @sukhpabial and @sarahboydh In the podcast, the following pieces are referenced: Sarah wrote a blog post about the bits of appreciative inquiry that she loves.

In this episode I tell my story or at least some of my story of 2017.  I found 2017 really hard.  Physically and more importantly (for this podcast) I found it emotionally hard.  I feel lucky that feeling content and settled with life is something that generally comes easy to me. 2017 was not like that.  Here I talk about how I struggled with my identity, with how I saw myself and that the reality was not something I wanted to or chose to face.  As well as this sharing of my 2017 I talk about what is to come for the podcast in 2018. Here is a link to the video I reference about the context forcing me to be someone I wasn't https://youtu.be/E5ewQ_za6KA Here is a link to the blog that I wrote part way through the year https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/hush-race-phil-willcox If you are interested in hearing more about the live podcasts, please email  hello@emotionatwork.co.uk

*This is a rebroadcast of the episode orignally aired in July 2017*   Here we explore the breadth and depth of emotions so listeners can use what we discuss to help enrich lives or help protect from or reduce harm.  We focus on the roles #emotion #credibility and #deception play in the workplace.   In this episode our founder, Phil Willcox is talking with Georgie Nightingall about changing up the standard networking type conversation.  A lot of the talk we do, especially in a networking type setting is ritualised.  What we mean by that is the types of questions we ask, the responses we give and the way we interact is almost pre-set.  A good example of this would be the classic 'So... what do you do?' type question at a networking event.  During our conversation we go on to explore conversations in the workplace, in teams, on line and the link to the identity or identities we build for ourselves.  We also cover identity at work, at home and how the boundaries can/do/will become blurred.  I thoroughly enjoyed my chat with Georgie and below are the links to all the different theories or concepts we have discussed:   Relevance theory and meaning: http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/publications/WPL/02papers/wilson_sperber.pdf https://www.thoughtco.com/relevance-theory-communication-1691907   Trigger Conversations and their events: https://www.triggerconversations.co.uk/ https://www.triggerconversations.co.uk/#EVENTS georgie@triggerconversations.co.uk   Conversation(al) rtiuals https://hbr.org/1995/09/the-power-of-talk-who-gets-heard-and-why https://youtu.be/CFa2m-tLIaE   Allowable contributions http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/soc/faculty/heritage/Site/Publications_files/CA%20and%20INSTITUTIONAL%20TALK_LSI.pdf   Allowable contributions and improvisation: https://www.bangor.ac.uk/mindfulness/documents/DisciplinedImprovisation.pdf   Books: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Artists-Way-Discovering-Recovering-Creative/dp/0330343580 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tools-Titans-Billionaires-World-Class-Performers/dp/1785041274/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1499675468&sr=8-1&keywords=tools+of+titans     Thanks for listening.  If you enjoy what you hear, then please leave us a review...

Lisa talks to Phil Willcox about emotions, and in particular the emotions caused by the rapidly increasing pace of change in work and life in general.

This podcast is about sharing ideas, insights, research and experiences around emotion in the workplace.  Here we explore the breadth and depth of emotions so listeners can use what we discuss to help enrich lives or help protect from or reduce harm.  We focus on the roles #emotion #credibility and #deception play in the workplace. In this special edition Phil asked on Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter for questions from listeners.  These could be about any aspect of #emotion, #credibility or #deception or related to a particular episode so far.  The questions and who asked them are below and this time you just get to hear Phil's dulcet tones for the whole episode *lucky you* ;-) Questions:   Annette Hill - @familyhrguru   When the idea of collaboration, sharing stories and social leadership is very current, is the need to keep this valid and grounded in what is happening now, even more acute?   How do we encourage and value this gradual and incremental way of learning?   Ross Garner - @RossGarnerGP   Are conversation rituals a useful crutch?   Patrick Mullarkey - @mentormullarkey   Can I ask a personal question that is tenuously linked to identity? What advice would Phil Willcox have given to himself ten years ago?   Sarah Taylor   Something I'm pondering on a lot these days is the balance between self-acceptance and self-improvement. When does the desire to change aspects of our self and our feelings become problematic?

In learning and development, we're often tasked with solving problems. But how do we know that the client or stakeholder defining the problem is telling the truth? Are they trying to deceive, or are they deceiving themselves? What questions can we ask that could help us find out? This week on the GoodPractice Podcast, Phil Willcox from the Emotion at Work podcast returns to the show to share his expertise with Ross G and Owen. If you'd like to share your thoughts on the show, you can find Phil on Twitter @PhilWillcox, Ross @RossGarnerGP and Owen @OwenFerguson. You can also tweet @GoodPractice or @GoodpracticeAus.

Over the past year or so, the GoodPractice team have produced 50 podcast episodes. To celebrate this milestone, we've asked three of our favourite L&D podcasters to join us in a panel discussion on: podcasting for learning. From 'Emotion at Work', we have Phil Willcox. From 'From Scratch', we have Martin Couzins and Nigel Paine. And from the GoodPractice team we have Ross Garner and Owen Ferguson.  Thanks for listening. If you'd like to share your thoughts on the show, you can find Phil on Twitter @PhilWillcox, Nigel @ebase, Martin @MartinCouzins, Owen @OwenFerguson, and Ross @RossGarnerGP. You can also tweet @GoodPractice or @GoodpracticeAus. If you'd like to find out more about our upcoming events, blogs and whitepapers, visit goodpractice.com. You can subscribe to 'Emotion at Work' on iTunes. 'From Scratch' is available at fromscratchpodcast.com. For anyone interested in starting their own podcast, we tend to record using Blue Snowball USB microphones. We speak over Skype or Google Hangouts, with each contributor recording themselves on Audacity (PC) or QuickTime (Mac). The host then collects that week's recordings from all contributors and edits them together in Adobe Audition. Audacity or Garage Band are free alternatives. We host our podcasts on Libsyn. You can submit your podcast to iTunes here.

This podcast is about sharing ideas, insights, research and experiences around emotion in the workplace.  Here we explore the breadth and depth of emotions so listeners can use what we discuss to help enrich lives or help protect from or reduce harm.  We focus on the roles #emotion #credibility and #deception play in the workplace.  Our first episode is more of a broadcast from our founder (Phil Willcox) talking about why the emotion at work podcast is a thing.  He sets out: 1) That the podcasts will be a series of conversations with researchers and/or practitioners and/or business leaders.  Some guests may be in more than one camp. 2) Each podcast will be an authentic recording of the conversation that was had.  There will be no splicing editing or cutting out.  We want you the listener to hear it in its true form. 3) This podcast supports the goals of emotion at work as what you hear will be helpful in enirching lives or reducing harm in the workplace.  The guests and Phil talk about hints, tips and techniques to help listeners find out how to work with emotion, credibility and deception in the workplace more effectively.   4) That we are a work in progress.  This is the first of many podcasts and we will learn and evolve with time.  We are excited you are along for the ride.
