    Ethical Storytelling with Rachel Erskine

    Narratives are powerful forces, shaping not only our perceptions and attitudes about issues but also how we behave towards other people. A narrative can inform or misinform, do good or do harm, expand understanding, co-operation, trust and well-being or reduce them. In a challenged, conflicted and changing world the manner of our storytelling has never been more important. In this episode communications professional Rachel Erskine explains the vital role that ethical storytelling plays in the work of an international health NGO and in any endeavour to do good.

    Omniworking, interview with Gwen Stirling-Wilkie

    The world of work is still adjusting to the shocks and after-shocks of the covid pandemic. Rather than simply choosing or balancing where work happens, RTO (Return to Office) or WFH (Work from Home), organisations are faced with the need for unprecedented levels of behavioural and technological adaptability and flexibility. In this episode Organisation Development explorer and guide Gwen Stirling-Wilkie talks about her concept of Omni-Working, working effectively in all ways from all places, and the radical shift that this requires in the conduct and quality of our conversations at work.

    Learning to Listen Interview with Alan Robertson

    One of the reasons why it is not easy to be a good listener is that  there are so many other calls on our attention, both from the world around us and from what’s going through our minds as we supposedly ‘listen’ to others.  In this episode guest interviewer Amy Dempsey returns to question Alan Robertson about the development and purpose of the latest addition to the VoicePrint suite, the Listening Questionnaire, a talk-wise tool that can help us all to learn to listen better.

    Selfless Listening with Janie Van Hool

    Listening is a vital part of good communication and effective interactions, but it can be difficult to do it well. Selfless listening requires us to set aside our own concerns and to give our full attention to what someone else wishes to say. In this episode communications expert and Samaritans listening volunteer Janie Van Hool returns to the TalkWise Podcast to emphasise why listening selflessly can be so beneficial, to reflect on how easily good listening intentions can be  disrupted and to suggest specific ways of enabling selfless listening.

    Creating Great Dialogue with Paul Minx

    Although communication is sometimes described as one-way, no act of communication is merely one-dimensional: all communications reflect both intent, conscious or subconscious, and impact, positive, neutral or negative. So while speeches, presentations and monologues can be multi-faceted in these respects, how much more complex, dynamic and potentially either creative or destructive is the interactive process of dialogue. In this episode guest Paul Minx shares reflections and insights about the part that dialogue - good and bad - plays in his parallel careers as an executive coach and a professional playwright.

    Being present, listening and questioning

    It is generally agreed that most human interactions would be improved, if we were better listeners. We are urged to ‘be present’ and to ‘listen actively.’  But what do these ideas mean in practice? How do we become better listeners? In this episode Toni Smerdon, a qualified lawyer whose work now focuses on coaching others, explains the practicalities of the elusive skills of being fully present, of attaining the highest and most productive levels of listening, and of using questioning to promote inquiry.

    Overcoming organisational misalignment

    There is a tacit assumption in all organisations: that their constituent parts will fit together and work. The reality is somewhat different, as evidenced by the size of the management consultancy sector, advising to organisations on how to improve their performance. In this episode internal communications expert Lindsay Uitenbogaard explains the ubiquitous problem of unconscious misalignment between functions and people in the modern organisation and how her diagnostic tool, Mirror Mirror, can assist organisations to overcome this performance-destroying obstacle.
