    About this Episode

    Lucinda interviews Jill Aburrow from Heartfelt HR to discuss the challenging topic of managing redundancy. With nearly 30 years of HR experience, Jill specialises in advising on redundancy issues and has written a book called "Redundancy with Love."

    They explore the importance of managing redundancy sensitively and positively, emphasising the need for clear communication, empathy, and support for both those being made redundant and the survivors.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Managing redundancy requires expecting unexpected reactions from employees. People may respond in various ways, such as bursting into tears, cheering, or feeling in denial. It is important to be prepared for different emotional responses.
    • Managers should deliver the redundancy message with empathy and clarity. While it is essential to show understanding and support, it is equally important to provide concise and straightforward information about the situation. Avoid over-explaining or over-empathising, as it may distract from the main message.
    • Redundancy communication should be done by managers, as they have a closer relationship with the affected employees. However, HR support should be available to provide guidance and assistance to managers during the process.
    • Consultation and communication should not be limited to a single meeting. It is recommended to have multiple meetings to ensure that employees fully understand the situation and have the opportunity to ask questions. Follow-up in writing is also important to provide a reference for employees to refer back to.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "The most common reaction of all is denial, is people just don't accept that it's happening to them."

    "The manager needs to have somewhere they can offload because it's really difficult to have these conversations and so a group of managers who are all doing it have a peer group where you can just go and talk about some of the reactions you've had or just offload it."

    "It's a difficult balancing act to get the messaging right”

    "The empathy is a difficult one as well because what you must steer clear of is trying to be too sympathetic and saying, isn't it awful? You know, this is terrible that you're going through this."

    "So we did have a, I guess, a set of professional standards. And as you might imagine, we've had a different variation of that over the years”

    "So we start with the purpose of the profession at the heart of it, championing better work and working lives. Really wanting to, and that was very much the feedback that we got, was that professionals was keen to be identified with that wider purpose."

    How We Learn - with Stella Collins

    How We Learn - with Stella Collins

    Lucinda is joined by Stella Collins, co-founder and chief learning officer of Stella Labs. They discuss the intersection of neuroscience and AI in the field of learning and development. Stella shares insights on how understanding how the brain learns can improve the effectiveness of learning initiatives.

    She emphasises the importance of motivation, practice, reflection, and spaced repetition in the learning process. Stella also highlights the role of AI in creating personalised learning journeys, providing support and feedback, and tracking progress

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Understanding how learning works is crucial for both learners and learning professionals. It involves recognsing the need for learning, staying motivated throughout the learning process, receiving guidance and support, practicing and experimenting with new knowledge or skills, and applying them in real-world situations.
    • Neuroscience provides insights into how the brain learns and changes. It highlights the neuroplasticity of the brain, its energy requirements, and the importance of sleep in consolidating learning.
    • AI can enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of learning. It can help create content, suggest behaviours, personalise learning journeys, provide automated feedback and support, track progress, and generate relevant activities for learners.
    • Gamification can be a useful tool in learning, but it should be optional and tailored to individual preferences. It can enhance motivation and engagement, but it is not necessary for effective learning.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "AI can help you be highly efficient at producing rubbish. So you do need to think about what's the effectiveness we're looking at, what are we actually trying to achieve?"

    "If you're a line manager who perhaps hasn't had a coaching skill or hasn't been trained on coaching, if you're given a checklist, all those stuff, here's some good questions to ask."

    "Learning just isn't magic. You can't onboard people faster than their brains can actually process stuff."

    "Good learning doesn't need gamification. Good gamification can sometimes help with learning."

    E.D.I. for SMEs with Cat Wildman

    E.D.I. for SMEs with Cat Wildman

    Lucinda is joined by Cat Wildman, founder of Powered by Diversity, to discuss practical strategies for implementing diversity and inclusion (EDI) initiatives in organisations.

    They emphasise the importance of starting from the bottom and engaging the entire leadership team in the process. Kat explains how their platform helps HR teams assess their organisation's current state of EDI and gather valuable data from employees. They also discuss the benefits of addressing EDI, such as attracting and retaining diverse talent and enhancing employer brand

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Collecting data from employees through surveys can provide valuable insights into their experiences and perceptions of inclusion.
    • Taking action on low-hanging fruit and quick wins can demonstrate a commitment to diversity and inclusion and show employees that their feedback is being heard.
    • Recognise that diversity and inclusion efforts are a long-term strategy and focus on making sustainable progress over time rather than seeking quick fixes.

    BEST MOMENTS

    “As a scientist and technologist, I would always, prepare my data so prepare the experiment, what do we want to do. What is the situation now is the first thing, and how do we want to influence it is the second thing."

    "We had an organisation where they did have an issue where there was such a white organisation, they found it really hard to attract talent of colour, they weren't getting any applications, and so we did a really specific piece of work for them and researched that specifically with a group of people of that demographic."

    "We try and get people to have that balance of, show that you're doing stuff, talk about the data regularly, reference it in all of the presentations that you do quarterly or in your all hands meetings, talk about, right, we did the assessment, This is the Powered by Diversity section”

    Talent Acquisition for SME's - with Miles Bonnell

    Talent Acquisition for SME's - with Miles Bonnell

    Lucinda is joined by Miles Bonnell of Milo HR to discuss how to create a winning talent culture or acquisition strategy, with a focus on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

    They emphasise the importance of understanding and aligning with the company's culture, being honest with candidates about the current state of the business, and setting clear expectations. They also explore the role of technology, such as applicant tracking systems (ATS), in automating processes and improving efficiency.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Understanding and aligning the company culture is crucial for creating a winning talent acquisition strategy.
    • Utilising technology, such as applicant tracking systems (ATS), can automate processes and save time in recruitment.
    • Job boards like Indeed and LinkedIn can be effective for attracting candidates, but it's important to track the return on investment and consider niche job websites for specific industries.
    • Creating killer questions and using video technology can help sift through candidates more efficiently.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "I think the foundation for a good recruitment process is looking at what's happening in-house with your teams in terms of the culture, how you're retaining your staff, how your employees feel."

    "Different candidates align to different types of roles. If you know that your culture isn't exactly where it needs to be, then you need to find someone that's going to come in and help change that culture."

    "The real role of a job description is so that the candidate can understand exactly what's good looks like for their role, what they're measured against in terms of the kind of performance indicators."

    "AI is really supporting with automation around how candidates apply and how businesses can deliver talent acquisition."

    Rethinking Wellbeing with Lucinda

    Rethinking Wellbeing with Lucinda

    Lucinda flies solo this time to discuss various themes related to well-being, drawing from recent research findings from the CIPD and Oxford University.

    She explores the effectiveness of well-being initiatives, highlighting the need to focus on structural aspects of work that contribute to well-being rather than relying solely on superficial interventions. Lucinda also emphasises the importance of measuring the return on investment of well-being strategies and suggests using metrics such as employee engagement and work-life balance

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Well-being initiatives may not always have a significant impact on employee well-being or job satisfaction, according to a study by Oxford University.
    • It is important to focus on the structural aspects of work that contribute to well-being, such as reducing stressors and improving manager support.
    • Return on investment (ROI) for well-being initiatives should be measured through metrics like employee engagement, work-life balance, and sickness absence.
    • Financial well-being is a growing concern, and employers should consider offering support and resources in this area.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "A large-scale Oxford University study... showed no statistical impact on well-being or job satisfaction from a series of well-being interventions."

    "Well-being is not just let's do some stress management training, let's give everybody the Headspace app. It is much, much broader and so it's looking at dealing with the stressors from the ground up."

    "Lower paid and unskilled workers were more at risk [of financial distress]."

    "Make sure you know what you need to do to recharge or renew... If you are just re-renewing in all of those areas, then that's actually going to make a difference."

    Uplevelling Wellbeing - with Dr Neha Sangwan

    Lucinda welcomes Dr. Neha Sangwan, an engineer turned medical doctor and executive coach, who specialises in addressing the global epidemic of burnout and shares her insights on well-being and avoiding burnout on a grand scale.

    Dr Sangwan discusses her personal experience with burnout as a doctor and the lack of awareness and training in the medical field, emphasising the importance of self-awareness and listening to our bodies' signals to prevent burnout. She also highlights the six drivers of personal and organisational fit that contribute to burnout and offers strategies for creating a culture of well-being in the workplace

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Recognising the early signs of burnout is crucial in preventing it from escalating into a crisis.
    • It is important to prioritise self-care and listen to the signals our bodies are sending us.
    • Workload, control, recognition, community, fairness, and meaning are the six drivers that determine personal and organisational fit and can contribute to burnout if not addressed.
    • Creating a culture of trust, transparency, and collaboration is essential in promoting well-being and preventing burnout.
    • Individual well-being is interconnected with organisational well-being, and both should be addressed to create a healthier work environment.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "What I am proposing is in parallel to the crisis management, that we also use this as a wake up call to ask them, What strategies have you been using that you've outgrown that are no longer useful for you?"

    "Your body's talking. The question is, are you listening?"

    "If you want to solve it and you want to up level how you function, you have to get to the root cause of where you're having a net gain or a net drain of energy on a physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual level."

    "We're a world looking for trust again, in ourselves and in each other. And if leadership is not modeling this, and that's why you got to make it safe."

    Wellbeing Strategies - with Gethin Nadin

    Wellbeing Strategies - with Gethin Nadin

    Lucinda welcomes Gethin Nadin, an expert in workplace well-being, to discuss the current state of well-being strategies in organisations and the need for a more holistic approach.

    Gethin shares insights from his research and emphasises the importance of organisational culture and personal responsibility in promoting well-being. They also delve into the impact of AI on well-being and productivity in the workplace

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Well-being strategies should focus on inclusivity and organisational structure, rather than solely relying on purchasing well-being platforms or tools.
    • Low-intensity well-being interventions, such as providing skills and education to support a healthier lifestyle, can have a significant impact on overall well-being.
    • Organisations should prioritise creating a culture of well-being and personal responsibility, where employees are encouraged to take care of their well-being for both personal and business success.
    • AI technology can play a role in removing administrative tasks and providing personalised support, but it should be used in a way that enhances the human experience at work, rather than diminishing it.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "The pandemic was clearly a watershed moment for well-being."

    "I think the more we talk about mental health, we risk normalising it too much."

    "The more you can help somebody deal with what's going on in life, the better they will bring that great stuff to work”

    Preventing Burnout For 2024 - with Petra Velzeboer

    Preventing Burnout For 2024 - with Petra Velzeboer

    Lucinda welcomes mental health consultant Petra Velzeboer to discuss the importance of prioritising mental health in the workplace. They explore the signs of burnout and the 12-stage process that leads to it, emphasising the need for prevention and self-awareness.

    Petra shares practical tips for managing stress, including setting boundaries, reevaluating values, and addressing digital well-being. They also discuss the impact of meeting culture and inefficiencies in the workplace.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Prevention is important, as burnout can take a long time to recover from.
    • The 12 stages of burnout include proving oneself, working harder, neglecting needs, displacing conflict, revising values, denying the problem, withdrawal, behavior change, inner emptiness, depression, and burnout.
    • It is important to prioritise one's own well-being and create boundaries in order to manage stress effectively.
    • Taking control of digital well-being and reevaluating meeting culture can also contribute to reducing stress and increasing productivity.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "We're seeing a lot of real issues these days around topics such as burnout, working culture, things like that."

    "What we do know is that when you hit full-on burnout, it can take up to two years, sometimes more, to fully recover."

    "The best thing for your wellbeing might be to have the difficult conversation you've been putting off."

    "It's about community, laughter, connection."

    "We need to unlearn a few things in order to create space for innovation and creativity."
