    Ask Mark Anything - Part 3

    Micromanagers, Trust, Change Resistance and Molding My Manager all get a run in this weeks episode.



    Be provoked and perhaps pleasantly surprised by the 'Purposeful Provocateurs' take on these topics.

    Ask Mark Anything (again)

    Ask Mark Anything (again)

    Mark was flooded with questions after his last "Ask Mark Anything' Poddy so he's had another 'off the cuff' crack at answering questions about workplaces as 'families', first impressions and the importance of gut feel, how to be bold and keep your boss onside when you want to make a career move, dealing with 'idea stealers' and those who 'want to always be in the photo' and taking control of your life design (aka work-life balance). You may agree or disagree with Mark's perspectives here and you'd both be right!!

    Ask Mark Anything

    Ask Mark Anything

    I love questions with very little notice, and in this weeks episode I share my 'truth' on questions relating to workplace bullying, teaching leadership, leading when there's a personality and values clash, changing a deeply ingrained s****y culture and the mandate to return to the office (good or bad).



    Oh and there's even a cheeky question about age appropriateness to wear a 'man-bun'. Have a listen, get triggered or nod your head (or both) as I give it my best shot.

    Julie Hyde - You Always Have A Choice

    Julie Hyde - You Always Have A Choice

    Author and Leadership Coach Julie Hyde's cancer diagnosis sent her into a dark place and she knew she had to make a choice there and then.



    In this episode Julie shares her inspirational story of choosing victim or victor, the difference between a choice and a decision, why busyness is a 'jailor for choice', and how one can create their own hope.

    Tiff Cook: Who Are You To Judge?

    Tiff Cook: Who Are You To Judge?

    Tiff Cook is back again and we reflect on the helpfulness and/or harmfulness of data around a range of related topics in this chat, along with how and why we judge people (motorbike riders for me), what makes us like (or dislike) them, and how understanding our strengths and personality styles (more data, incidentally) can help us work, grow, connect and conquer.



    Again this is 'Podcast freestyling' at its very best. Take a listen - I dare you (and will judge you if you don't).

    Sarah Norman - From Rocks to Futuristic Stuff

    Director of the Futures Practice Sarah Norman joins me and we go 'full freestyle' discussing sympathy and empathy, impostor syndrome, how a futurist thinks, slip-ups, stuff ups, connection as humans, creativity, variety and why measuring everything to an inch of its existence is not the answer. Go on have a listen - I know you'll learn something from this amazing human.

Frank, honest & actionable

As always Mark gives you the frank, honest truth of leadership. Might not be the response you want, but it’s likely the reality of the mater. Whilst leading with being human & authentic, Mark doesn’t leave the realities of employment/businesses at the door. Too many people either side step the awkward moments, or gloss over them. Mark faces into it, honestly, but with respect and dignity.

Mark provides thoughts on how to navigate life, as a leader, as an employee, as a human… and with a a sprinkle of banter, life should be done with an element of fun. 5 stars!
