  • SWEETSPOT SAFARI # 21 /|\ youth and elders w/Mark Straw
    2024/09/02
    During this episode we chat with Mark Straw, the founder of Community Praxis. Their mission is to support third sector organisations and communities in the development of a critical lens and participatory approaches to building cohesive and connected spaces. We have a wide ranging discussion around the need for intergenerational collaboration. Topics we touch on include accelerating change, unhelpful stereotypes, rites of passage, role models, wisdom and how the pandemic response negatively impacted young and old. Our culture and societies depends on the transmission of knowledge between these groups so how do we pivot away from increasingly destructive conflict and towards productive collaboration?

  • SWEESTPOT SAFARI #20 /|\ employee and employer w/Glenn Martin
    2024/08/05
    In this session we have Glenn Martin, founder and CEO of "Never mind the Job Spec" , walking us through the complexities and attributes of the job acquisition process, and the power of "Human Centred Hiring" . We explore the balance and power dynamic between employer and candidate and the differences between employer brand and talent brand. The market is shifting rapidly, not just driven by technology but values. We look for sweetspots, but clearly employers have to understand that they have to be realistic about the influence they have in the job market. Candidates have more levers to pull with access to company information and the perceived values / company branding in the marketplace. The employer can control their employer brand, but not the talent brand. Parity is more evident, companies who are not open and recognise their own gaps, or they will suffer indirectly in the acquisition process. For job seekers there may be a fear of dehumanisation within the process, but the technology adoption is not advance as we may think. Glenn poses the question, whether companies really understand hybrid working and how employees are treated? There will be a new social contract in place, which will not go backwards.

  • SWEETSPOT SAFARI #19 /|\ mind and matter w/Stephanie Laing
    2024/07/01
    This week we explore the topic of Mind and Matter from a philosophical perspective with Steph Laing ; Comedian, Charity Trustee, Community Worker and TED-X Speaker. No stone is left unturned, and we look at the topic with a scientific lens as well as a conscious embodied perspective. Is there a difference, or do they overlap ? Steph uses her work and life experiences to elucidate the options, and shares her own thoughts about the power of both intention and attention working in harmony. The former potentially relating to the mind, and the latter being related to matter. A simple arm movement being a prime example. This podcast should get people making their own connections and hopefully identifying their own intersections.
