Communikarma is where psychology meets real life: negotiations that stall, teams that wobble, relationships that hit snags. If you want to understand the hidden mechanics of human behaviour — and respond with a bit more strategy — this is the place. We look at the classic missteps, talk to people who’ve been through the storm, and unpack what actually helps. Hosted by Nyla Naseer, it’s a space to learn, be entertained, and make sense of what on earth is going on. (Communikarma builds on the work of The Progress Jury Podcast)

    Cultural Appropriation - Is it all that bad?

    There is a lot of outrage about 'cultural appropriation' - from music drawing heavily on cultural influences to designers stealing ethnic minority designs and even fusion food in the spotlight. The recent removal of 'national' weeks from The Great British Bake Off prompted the Jury to discuss this sensitive issue. Whilst out and out stereotyping and ripping off the intellectual property of others is wrong, what about the argument that all culture has been 'appropriated' from somewhere - and that we are all the better off for it?

Or is it that we are constantly evolving to accommodate new ways of living. The balance between the pros and cons of an easy life (through technology) is debated by The Progress Jury

    Should we have Universal Basic Income?

    In the first of The Progress Jury polls we ask "Should we Have Universal Basic Income?" Yeah, a wedge of free money, each and every month, whether you work or not!
