    Transformational cultures use the manager as a coach

    Sign up for the newsletter Tiffany Gaskell outlines coaching as a route to transformational leadership Tiffany Gaskell is the co-author of Coaching for Performance, the top-selling guide to coaching first published by Sir John Whitmore the inventor of the discipline. It's curious to consider that there was a founder of coaching, and Tiffany takes me through the history of the practice, how it took hold and where it is today. There's a key consideration about the modern manager given to us by the Gallup Global Workplace Report, 80% of those who are engaged with their jobs say they've received direct feedback from their manager in the last week. This is a powerful insight but also poses a huge challenge - how can any of us find the time to observe and then feedback to every worker in our team. Tiffany explains that this is where a culture of coaching comes in, transferring the burden of observation from the manager to facilitating a socratic questioning approach. You can follow Tiffany on LinkedIn and the book is out now. Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/eatsleepworkrepeat. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    How Intel fixed work and then threw it away

    Subscribe to the free Make Work Better newsletter Brigid Schulte is a journalist and writer who brings a reporter's ear for stories to her exploration of modern work. Over the course of a decade Schulte has talked to people about the impact their jobs has on their lives - and has explored any hope that we might be able to make this better. Her new book, Over Work and paints a hopeful image of how we might fix the toxic elements of our jobs. One of the examples is about Intel, who in 2013 experimented with a new initiative styled Freelance Nation to bring some of the upsides of gig work to a professional knowledge work environment. It proved hugely successful and yet they decided to scrap it. Buy Over Work Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/eatsleepworkrepeat. Hosted on Acast.

  5. Should we focus on making workers happy?

    Should we focus on making workers happy?

    Sign up for the Make Work Better newsletter How important is a happy workforce? According to Mark Price, the former boss of Waitrose, it's the main thing that leaders should be thinking about. Make your workforce happy and the profits will follow. Mark's new book is Happy Economics. To prove it Mark cites his experience running the supermarket chain, when with a goal of workers happiness he made it the fastest-growing, most profitable supermarket in the UK. The original purpose of the John Lewis Partnership, as laid out by the very same John Lewis , was to uphold the happiness of the people who worked inside the organisation. Mark's new book is Happiness Economics. Mark's book makes the assertion that the quickest way to business success is to focus on creating happy employees. This is genuinely a brilliant listen - and one that you might benefit from reading the transcript of - you can get the transcript here. While I got real value from the book, I actually found the conversation even more enlightening. It challenged some things I believed and I found myself reflecting on it for the day afterwards. I think there’s a clarity in the conversation that the book lacks at times - I think it’s the challenge of books to be honest. We’re so used to ideas being visually backed up that when we’re paging through 200 pages of words the emphasis is often lost. Maybe they work best together. Mark has a clear 6 stage framework for making a happy, productive workforce laid out in his compelling new book Happiness Economics. Reward and recognitionInformation sharingEmpowermentWellbeingA sense of pride& Job satisfaction Mark's company is WorkL. You can take their surveys and see their data on that link. Key takeaways The happiness of employees is crucial for driving productivity and increasing profitsManagers play a vital role in creating a positive work environment and should focus on training, recognition, and coachingLeadership should involve setting a clear plan, making employees feel valued and important, and maintaining optimism about the future.Well-being initiatives should go beyond tokenistic measures and address underlying issues in the work culture. Employee happiness is crucial for workplace culture and productivity.The six key drivers of happiness at work are reward and recognition, empowerment, sense of pride, line management, career development, and job satisfaction.Implementing these drivers effectively can lead to improved well-being, productivity, and business performance.Building a positive culture is essential, and companies should focus on measuring and improving employee happiness.

    Presence: Fish! Time to revisit a culture classic?

    This episode is part of the Presence project: Presence: Fixing culture starts with your calendar, not your office In the 2000s a book called Fish! A remarkable way to boost morale and improve results became a bestseller. A small book, it was often used by companies accompanying a video of the same name. Together the two told a story of the culture of the fish market in Seattle, a noisy, bombastic place, but a place that was filled with joy. I first encountered Fish when a firm came to pitch to me when I was working in publishing. They told me that their culture was Fish.  There are a few things that stood out from it. The idea of intentionally designing culture isn’t new but this seemed to be explicitly linking culture, emotion and mood.  There were 4 principles of Fish Playbe theremake their daychoose your attitude Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/eatsleepworkrepeat.

    Presence: exploring real life culture rituals

    This episode is part of the Presence project: Presence: Fixing culture starts with your calendar, not your office This is the second episode about rituals - the first one is next to it in the podcast feed, it's an interview with Kursat Ozenc about how rituals can be used to create culture. This episode goes into real life examples. Claudia Wallace talks about Crisp Thursday (Connection) Andy Puleston talks about Pizza Meetings (Connection) and Leaving Speeches (Change) Dan Pink talks about Friday Night Experiments (Creativity) Biz Stone talks about Hack Week at Twitter (Creativity) Dr Heidi Edmondson talks about Ten at Ten (Performance) Heidi has a wonderful new book out - Darkness in the City of Light You can also hear the original episodes that each of these extracts came from by click the links above. I have to say that those whole episodes are worth revising. For example, Andy Puleston talks about how effective the culture was at Radio 1 when it was a series of affiliated tribes and he articulates the role that buildings play in shaping cultures. Each episode teaches something special.  Andy Puleston is now Director of People & Culture at Circulor, an award winning technology business.
