How can we remodel role models? With Eilish McColgan and Lucy Traynor 39:40

4d ago39:40

39:40

Beating the odds. Getting the gold. Staying fearless. Showing strength. Never stopping. We hear those words used about some of the world’s biggest role models. The people who, when the spotlight shines on them, seem superhuman. But what if we switched that spotlight to focus on the human too, rather than just the super? Instead of beating the odds,…

Ding. Breaking news. Ding. New email. Ding. Whatsapp group. Ding. New email. Ding. Whatsapp again. Ding. Another email. Ding. Ding. Ding.

Will AI stop misinformation? With Georgie Barrat and Paul Lee 32:50

2M ago32:50

32:50

All day, every day, we can access masses of information at the touch of a button. Or the sound of a voice command. However, we can access a lot of misinformation too. We’ve all seen examples of deepfakes, online scams and misinformation shape the headlines – and then become the headlines. The most common conclusion? It’s AI’s fault. Would it surpri…

Can you be kind and high-performing? With David Beeney and Elizabeth Hampson 42:59

2M ago42:59

42:59

“In a world where you can be anything, be kind.” It’s a famous saying. And it sounds simple enough. But is it? And is there room for it at work if we want to achieve our career goals? Being kind to others may come easy, but what about being kind towards ourselves while chasing our dreams? But this isn’t just a nice to have. In the UK alone, mental …

29:02

It’s what they’ve worked towards. But it’s more than that. It’s a moment not just for them, but for everyone. That moment of realisation. The dream achieved. A generation inspired. A moment that will go down in history, not just for the result but for what it means. Episode three, in our five-part series, takes our athletes back to the moment where…

Does how we play as children affect our career? With Christian Pau and Emma Franklin 39:34

5M ago39:34

39:34

As we get older, work and play feel worlds apart. But as kids, playing is our job – and many of us played at having jobs. We set out shops. Operated on our teddies. Cut our dolls’ hair. Explored the outer edges of space in the garden. And although we might not have gone on to be any of the things that we pretended to be, those early experiments sti…

How do we close the funding gap? With Sophie Winwood and Jodi Birkett 41:53

5M ago41:53

41:53

We all have good ideas. But some of us have to clear more hurdles than others. If you’re a founder, you want to make your ideas happen and grow your business. But it’s not always that easy.

And …

6M ago41:05

41:05

Medals. Cheering. Split seconds. Finish lines. Every four years, Olympians and Paralympians come together from around the world and compete on the biggest stage. That stage is also the last stage. A moment in time. A day when all eyes are on you. What we don’t often see is what it took to get there. The hard work. The training. The setbacks. Those …

Are we asking the right questions about AI? With Sam Everington and Isabel Parker 42:10

7M ago42:10

42:10

Friend or threat? Help or hindrance? Possibilities or problems? The headlines about artificial intelligence often force us to fit the technology into one of two columns. It’s going to be good or bad. It’s going to be us or the robots. But as with most things in life, it’s not that simple. Is it time to change the conversation about AI to one that’s…

How do we fuel our future? With Alistair Dormer and Susan McDonald 41:07

8M ago41:07

41:07

Getting people to change how they do things can be hard, even if everyone agrees that things need to change. Take energy transition, for example.

The UK. India. Taiwan. Mexico. …

What are the new survival skills? With Bear Grylls and Shilpa Shah 40:19

9M ago40:19

Once we huddled around campfires, now we huddle around phone screens. Once we hunted and gathered, now there’s an app for that.

And then there’s the emerging technology to keep…

Are leaders born or made? With Jonathan Mildenhall and Tim Clayton-Ball 46:40

10M ago46:40

46:40

When we think of great leaders, influential visionaries come to mind. Pioneers in the corporate world. People who take risks, open doors and inspire others to step into their footsteps.

What comes first, vision or buy-in? With Sir Clive Woodward and Jess Dooley 39:53

12M ago39:53

39:53

Every one of us has dreams. A desire to make a difference on the things that matter to us. A vision for change, from the project we’re working on to our local community. Without action, a vision will merely be a dream. But a vision that many people believe in? Now that can change the world – ask any great leader. So how do you get this buy-in? Shou…

43:32

Astronaut. Dancer. Footballer. Pop star. Many of us will remember our childhood ambitions. But then life happens. We get an education. We’re forced to make a choice between one route or another. Wherever we want to get to, or redirect to, it’s about knowing what we want – and feeling capable. It’s about knowing where we could be – and feeling suppo…

1y ago38:25

38:25

It’s hard to beat the feeling of momentum building around something you care about. That positive energy and progress towards hitting your goals and climbing to new heights is infectious.

How do you make change happen? And not just any change. We’re talking about a systemic shift towards living, working and doing business more sustainably. Does it start with us?

What makes you feel like you belong? With Justice Williams MBE and Josh Graham 41:51

1y ago41:51

41:51

We all want to belong. At school. In our friendship groups. Our gym class. At work. It’s what makes us human. Instead, we often settle for fitting in. We edit who we are. Shapeshift to match the world around us. Or present a version of us that might be more ‘acceptable’ to others. And if you’re black, it's likely that you’ve spent a big part of you…

1y ago38:09

38:09

Global life expectancy has risen by over 50% since 1950. And one in three children born in 2016 will live to 100. But what will more of us living for longer actually look like? It could look amazing. More time to achieve everything we want to achieve. See everything we want to see. Spend time with our loved ones. But there’s lots to consider if we’…

Should leaders think more like activists? With Jon Miller and Laura Grootenboer 40:57

1y ago40:57

40:57

Protests. Megaphones. Cardboard messages. Boardrooms. When we think of activism, we imagine protestors on the streets – not C-suite executives. But is that right? From climate change to inequality, today’s challenges have become critical – and so has the role of organisations in them. In this episode, we explore a new kind of leadership by talking …

1+ y ago35:25

35:25

Growing up is a tough gig. We’re constantly learning about the world around us – and our place in it. What we like. What we don’t like. Who we are. Who we are not. But what if our differences feel too… different? What if who we are deep down isn’t the mainstream we’re seeing in society? And if you identify as LGBTQ+, we know it’s anything but easy.…

Or something completely different, that could make the world better for al…

What’s the truth behind financial crime? With David Fein and Sir Rob Wainright 35:21

1+ y ago35:21

35:21

We often think financial crime is victimless. Something that affects big banks. And is mainly about losing money. Or is it? What if we told you that everyday fraud adds up to something much bigger and darker? That behind every transaction, there’s a huge societal and human cost? Financial crime is on the rise. And thanks to the internet, the scale …

We spend our days reacting, responding, pivoting. To the latest trends, headlines and/or that urgent email in your inbox. It’s not you – it’s your brain. It’s how we’re wired. But understanding why we all behave the way we do is incredibly powerful. It allows us to align with the things that matter to us most – from personal change to climate chang…

Autocorrect. Chatbots. Social media feeds. E-payments. Facial recognition.

Baby boomers. Generation X. Millennials. Gen Z. And make way for Generation Alpha… Labels can help us understand the world, but they often become unhelpful generalisations – especially at work.

Lots of us spend (too) many hours sitting behind a computer for our jobs. And then spend our free time scrolling on our smartphones. Dropping concentration levels. Rising obesity rates. Mental health issues. It’s clear that we’d all benefit from less time on our devices and more time being active. Technology isn’t all bad though. There are some fan…
