Beyond The Water Cooler

De: Lisa LLoyd
  • Resumen

  • Are you confident about how to create the best workplace, from the inside out, where people are put first? Does your workforce share a clear sense of purpose, are they secure about change, do they know how to reduce stress, anxiety and the risk of burnout? Are you sure that productivity in your company is not diminished by presenteeism or staff turnover? This podcast features mini-series’ that delve into these topics and more, that have never been more important. As a psychologist, I get beneath the surface to really figure out the what, the why and the how, around your team being their best. These are authentic conversations about what employee experience is really about, what it takes to succeed and most importantly, how to achieve it. The ‘Great Resignation’ has proven a real challenge to retention, with more people walking and damaging reputations. And workers being recruited are rightfully demanding that organisations put their needs first. So creating an exceptional employee experience, everyday, is a must for companies wanting success in the future of work, and beyond. I will be sharing key strategies and proven insights that I have supported companies to develop, and I will be joined by leaders and inspirational others to hear their stories, their highs and lows and what they have learned. Together we will unpack real-world challenges, current trends and the big questions about organisational culture, engagement, uncertainty, resilience and all things people. Real life, real talk about what it takes to be a great company that puts exceptional employee experience at the heart of everyday practice. My mantra is simple: Get people right to get business right. So if you want to create a workforce that is happy, experiences good mental health, is motivated and connected, and lives and breathes psychological safety and empowerment to enable performance, this podcast is for you. Joining the dots is a priority, so whether you’re in leadership, management, hr, or people development, there will be something to learn. What will be your first step to show that you’re committed to making a difference? It's Time for Change helps companies who are ready to change, who take their people's wellbeing and work-experience seriously, and who recognise the upside to a happy workforce. The big question I'm often asked is "Where do we start?" My response is simple... right at the beginning, from your people up, with my support to help you plan and implement a happy and productive future around positive mental-wellbeing and work-culture. If this resonates with you and your company, we should talk.

  • Let Men Drive The Mental Health Bus – Nick O’Neill
    Jun 6 2024

    Nick O'Neill of Oriel Chambers outlines a modern approach for mental health in a traditional industry that is the legal sector.

    He explains that law is known for being a male dominated culture, attracting alpha characters. And that presents a challenge for addressing a very human need, particularly when you consider that many men of the generation that struggle to engage with mental health, are managers. Their perceptions and behaviours have a far-reaching impact.

    Add to that Nick's view that most lawyers hate being told what to do and the challenge of billable hours, and you will understand that this is a complex issue.

    Nick outlines how the Bar is addressing the layers of cultural complexity to break down barriers.

    He shares advice about the need to keep women out - a controversial but informed perspective.

    He explains the need to get more people on the bus by creating a commercial case.

    And Nick describes the impact of the Merseyside Men's Legal Wellbeing Group, discussing topics such as professional happiness, imposter syndrome and professional goals.

    We both detest tick boxes. This is about real life.

    Don't let Mental Health Awareness Week in May, Global Wellness Day tomorrow, and International Men's Health Week next week become token gestures. Instead, do something that impacts long term by creating engagement and momentum.

    Once you've listened to this podcast, check out what Stuart Codling had to say about the same topic in the police.

    These guys have found ways to make a real difference.

    How are YOU going about that?

  • Compassionate Leadership (a better approach for mental health?)
    May 16 2024
    I'm talking about compassionate leadership because it is mental health awareness week. How are those linked, I hear some of you ponder? Well, as those of you who know me well, I'm not really about initiatives or individual-level intervention without thinking about the wider context. You wouldn't put a flourishing seedling in a dark room without water. And, I've been doing quite a lot of work lately working with leadership teams to create space to stop and check in with themselves, each other and where the business is heading.
    When we focus on:
    • psychological safety - by experiencing it
    • compassion - by thinking about our own limits before looking to care for others
    • emotional intelligence - by recognising the need to step outside our comfort zones...


    We are able to: ✅ align individuals within a team ✅ provide clear direction for the business ✅ increase high performance
    And that impacts on good mental health - both for the leadership team and those they lead. Are you bolting on a quick fix or an attempting to solve mental health challenges when they're evident? Or are you taking a preventative approach and creating the right environment for people to be happy and healthy? Are you joining the dots?

  • The Shirtless Diver Levels up Wellbeing – Jamie Humphrey, ReechUs
    May 2 2024

    ➡️ Sick notes are on they way out, according to Sunak.

    What does that mean for people needing support to get themselves into a place where they feel ok enough to re-engage with work?

    ➡️ Employees are more aware of their rights and expect more in terms of 'care', with access to services that aren't about making them 'better' but about enhancing their lifestyle.

    How do companies know which specialists are credible, who work as a team, and that provide data to leaders to inform them about their work environment?

    Individual and organisational wellbeing go hand-in-hand 🫱🏼‍🫲🏼.

    That's why I invited Jamie Humphrey, CEO of ReechUs Wellbeing, to join my podcast. He brings the employee part of the solution to the table, around which I sit, with leaders looking to do something different, meaningful, and that has impact.

    Are you looking at the whole solution or have you zoomed in one just one part?

    Reech out to Jamie to find out more about ReechUs Wellbeing. He's got space for one more foundational member!

    While you're at it, let's chat about the bigger picture in terms of your culture.

    It's time to join the dots. It's time for change that reverses the decline in the health of our workforce.
