For years, What’s Happening at Work  podcast has been a space where I, Joyce Odidison, President of Interpersonal Wellness Services Inc. and founder of the Global Workplace Wellness Summit, shared practical strategies and insights to help you navigate challenges in the workplace. Drawing on my 27+ years of experience as a Conflict Analyst, I offered tools to shift toxic interpersonal dynamics, reduce stress, and foster resilience and well-being. Together, we explored the realities of workplace conflict, dis-ease, and transformation. As I close this chapter, I want to thank you for tuning in and being part of this journey. While What’s Happening at Work is coming to an end, the conversations don’t stop here. I’m excited to continue this work in new ways through my latest projects, where the focus on resilience and well-being will be deeper and more impactful than ever. Join me for my new podcast: The Resilience Catalyst show where I am focusing on the issues that I see so often, low resilience and a lack of understanding about how to build resilience in the 9 dimensions of life Thank you for listening, learning, and growing with me.

    Episode#135 - Is Your Team Headed for Conflict in Q1? Here's How to Fix It.

    As we enter 2026, are you already anticipating the same team conflicts, communication breakdowns, and performance dips? If you're tired of feeling like you're babysitting instead of leading, this episode is your strategic guide for Q1. In this episode of "What's Happening at Work," I introduce The 30-Day Resilience Sprint—a high-touch program designed specifically for leaders who need to address team issues head-on and protect their quarterly goals. We use our proprietary, science-backed diagnostic platform to turn your team's daily activities into measurable resilience data, uncovering the hidden stressors that lead to conflict and burnout. Stop guessing what's wrong with your team and start using data to build a foundation of resilience. This is your chance to get ahead of the problems before they derail your year. This sprint will help you: ► Get an anonymized, high-level overview of your team's specific resilience gaps. ► Learn how to have the right conversations to address issues like bullying and harassment. ► Equip your team with "resilience anchors" to handle pressure and collaborate effectively. ► Protect performance and ensure you meet your Q1 objectives. We only have 10 spots available for this intensive program.

    Episode#134 - Discover Why Conflict Avoidance Is Costing Your Workplace More Than You Realize

    Hi, I’m Joyce Odidison, Conflict Analyst, Resilience Coach, and Workplace Wellness Expert. For over 28 years, I’ve helped organizations resolve workplace conflict, rebuild trust, and transform toxic dynamics into high-performing, resilient cultures. However, one of the most damaging and often overlooked issues I see is conflict avoidance. When leaders or teams avoid difficult conversations, it often results in: ✅ Chronic stress and burnout ✅ Team disengagement and low morale ✅ Passive-aggressive behavior and poor collaboration ✅ Lost productivity and eroded workplace trust In this episode, I’ll share: Why “keeping the peace” leads to deeper employee disengagement How silence becomes the loudest form of workplace tension What healthy conflict really looks like and why it's key to building team trust and resilience The micro-skills every leader needs to manage conflict effectively Real-life stories of transforming conflict into collaboration Ready to turn conflict into connection and performance? Join me for my upcoming FREE masterclass: "How to Turn Energy-Draining Employees into High Achievers Without Adding to Your Workload" Stay until the end and receive the Behaviour Reset Blueprint™ (a $497 value)—the exact tool I use with executives in crisis.
