Learning From The Edges
The world of work is full of friction. Departments work in silos. Work gets stuck. Teams find workplaces are not as easeful as they could or should be. And in all of this human beings are caught in the challenges, resulting in poor work, mental health worries and worse. As a research project, Learning From The Edges will look at the edges of work, where friction exists and explore what gets in the way of work and of learning. Why is there friction? How can work be more fruitful for organisations and people? What barriers do people have and what practical ways they can overcome those barriers?

Learning From The Edges
Episode #12 Creating Space and Time for Optimal Thinking. With guest Meg Peppin.
Welcome and how are you?
Of course, these are only the podcast show notes, but it felt right to greet you like this considering the topic of today's show.
I invite you to take a moment and reflect on how often are you genuinely invited to share how you are, without judgment or interruption.
This week we discuss the power of how we can optimise our thinking at work, especially when attending meetings and within projects.
Meg and I explore how using two different types of thinking can help us to benefit from our independent thoughts as well as exploring where a collective exchange of ideas can lead.
