  • MORAL COMPASS – use your values to guide your actions

    MORAL COMPASS – use your values to guide your actions
    2025/06/02

    This episode delves into the significance of values in guiding our decisions and actions both personally and professionally.

    The episode begins with a case study on the 2023 Washington Post staff backlash against a new editor, highlighting how values influence workplace dynamics and decision-making.

    I underscore the importance of a moral compass, not just in personal life but also as a crucial factor for professional success.

    Real-life examples, such as a young boy returning a lost wallet and an employee whistleblowing on safety concerns at Spirit Aerosystems, illustrate the impact of strong ethical values.

    The episode also touches on the growing trend of 'climate quitters,' professionals who resign from companies with conflicting environmental policies.

    I provide a series of thought-provoking moral dilemmas to help you test your moral compass. I end the episode with practical tips on how to strengthen your moral compass, emphasizing empathy, aligning actions with values, and being open to new perspectives.

    Tune in to explore how your moral compass can lead to a fulfilling and harmonious life, and don't miss my book, "Happiness at Work," available on Amazon and the book's website.

  • VOTE WITH YOUR FEET--knowing when it's time to quit

    VOTE WITH YOUR FEET--knowing when it's time to quit
    2025/05/26
    Imagine getting your dream job. Now try imagining deciding to quit. It happens. Achieving that dream job and abandoning it can seem highly unlikely at first. Well, Ash Barty fulfilled her dream of winning Wimbledon in 2021, and the Australian Open in January the following year. Then Barty stunned the tennis world by quitting at the age of 25. She said, "I don't have the physical drive, the emotional want. I am spent." Starting your first job or even your second or third can be exhilarating. Earning money, learning new skills and meeting new people can make work seem like a continuous new adventure. But what happens when the excitement fades? Suppose you begin to feel stuck or unappreciated. Or worse, the organisation changes around you and a new manager or colleagues arrive to make your once-dream job seem more like a nightmare. Knowing when to quit can be challenging but crucial for personal and professional growth. What is essential right now, though, is to understand the signs that it's time to vote with your feet and move on. There may be warning signals that a once much-liked job is no longer attractive. You're feeling unhappy. While occasionally discontent with work is normal. If you find yourself dreading going to work every day, it's definitely a red flag. Persistent and unhappiness at work can lead to distress, anxiety and even depression. If you're constantly counting the hours until you can go home, it's maybe time to consider moving on. You're no longer growing in the job. One of the main reasons people take a job is to grow professionally. If you've been in your role for a while and haven't learnt anything new or advanced in your or career, it might well be time to look for opportunities elsewhere. Stagnation can lead to boredom and make you less competitive in the job market. A toxic work environment is yet another red flag. Pay close attention to its presence, as it may tell you something important. For example, if you constantly encounter negativity, office politics, bullying or harassment, it's a sure sign that you need to rethink your job. No job is worth your well-being, and prioritising your health over a paycheck is essential. Disagreeing with your organisation's values too, that may be telling you to move on. It could be the employer's approach to environmental issues, social responsibilities or how they treat employees. Check out the final podcast in this series which contains valuable information about your moral compass. Better opportunities could also signal that it's time to vote with your feet and that there are better opportunities elsewhere. You probably already know the present situation by keeping your ear to the ground on the job scene. Still, it's worth remembering that simply moving for the sake of money can be a deceptive gain. Prioritise your professional development to better align with your career goals. Take Samantha, who left her company to pursue a new opportunity. Her previous firm was fine. However, the latest role allowed her to manage a team and gain additional skills to advance her career. What Sam failed to realise was that the culture of her new company and her new boss were out of alignment with her personal values, leaving her distressed and unfulfilled. After ten months in the new job, Sam was able to show that her new skills and capabilities could fulfil a newly created position in her previous company. She boomeranged back and continued to grow her career. Sometimes voting with your feet can be both sensible and a surprising way out of a previously unfulfilling situation. In Samantha's case, for example, she twice used it to resolve an unacceptable situation. Now, let's talk about looking before you leap. Take a careful look at where you might land. Samantha, who we've just talked about, failed to do that and was lucky to be able to bounce back nearly a year later. Reflect on your decision and don't be hasty. Take time to think about why you want to quit. Write down your reasons. Are there any ways to address these issues in your current job? Sometimes a conversation with your senior or someone in HR can lead to positive changes for you. Another precautionary measure is to evaluate your finances. Are you financially prepared to leave your job? Having at least three to six months' worth of living expenses saved can provide an important safety net. Yet if the job market proves less buoyant than you expected, the cushion may need to be improved. An inadequate cushion can add stress to your job search. Do some basics around your resume and your LinkedIn profile. For example, highlight your achievements and any new skills that you've acquired. A polished resume can make a big difference in your job search. And remember to network during the adrenaline rush following a decision to move on. Contact your professional network to let them know that you're seeking new opportunities. Networking can lead to job leads and recommendations that you might not find ...

  • UNBREAKABLE - building and Retaining your essential resilience

    UNBREAKABLE - building and Retaining your essential resilience
    2025/05/19

    Taylor Swift, the pop singer, famously sang,

    "Ask me what I learned from all those years. Ask me what I learned from all those tears. Ask me why so many fade, but I'm still here, I'm still here. I'm still here."

    For Taylor Swift, success is a reward for her determination and perseverance, no matter what life throws at her.

    Rebecca Adlington, the Olympic gold medalist, expressed her resilience as,

    "I've never been more nervous in my life than I was when I got up at 6am today. I had a swim in the pool in the Olympic Village, had chocolate cereals for breakfast, then watched a little CSI Miami. After I arrived at the Olympic pool, though, I had to lie down, as I thought that if I sat up, I would have been sick."

    Emma Warder, a young software engineer at Google, is an inspiring example of resilience.

    She joined Google straight out of college and faced the challenge of adapting to a high-pressure environment and learning new skills.

    Initially, Emma struggled with a complex project that involved a new, unfamiliar programming language. By spending extra hours learning, enrolling in online courses, and seeking guidance from mentors, Emma overcame these challenges.

    Her resilience paid off as she became proficient in the new language, completed her project, and earned recognition from her peers and supervisors.

    So, what is resilience? It's your ability to bounce back from setbacks and respond positively to challenging circumstances. Especially at the start of a career, resilience is crucial because the workplace can be unpredictable and demanding. Will you keep going in the face of adversity or give up?

    I explain five steps to build your resilience:

    1. Create realistic goals
    2. Seek feedback
    3. Stay positive
    4. Build a support network
    5. Learn continuously

    My final thoughts? Resilience comes from coping with setbacks. Look for opportunities to keep learning and growing, and nurture your networks.
