In this episode, Lizzi, our Emotion at Work Marketing Manager, sits down with Ross Garner and Anna Barnett from The Mind Tools for L&D podcast to explore their ground breaking research into management practices.
Together, they explore the recent study, conducted in partnership with YouGov, which gathered data across 12 industries. The research uncovered some key insights into the realities of management today.
The study identified 12 core management capabilities essential for success: delegation, goal setting, transparent communication, coaching, active listening, recognition, inclusive leadership, trust, social sensitivity, self-awareness, self-regulation and empathy. Notably, empathy was linked to a 34% increase in team innovation.
The conversation also touches on the significance of happiness and satisfaction in the workplace. Research shows that employee satisfaction is associated with better long-term performance and happy employees are more likely to engage in self-driven learning.
Tune in to gain insights into the future of management and discover how to create leadership that drives performance and innovation.

Welcome to another episode of The Emotion at Work podcast, this time hosted by Lizzi, our Marketing and Community Manager. Today’s guest is Nicola Hinds, a former senior manager at Mitee. Nicola shares her journey of battling pregnancy discrimination in a high-stakes workplace tribunal—a struggle the media has dubbed as a 'David v. Goliath moment'.
After a three-year fight for justice, Nicola created Pregnant Pickle, an organisation that supports women facing similar challenges. In collaboration with local maternity services and the council, she launched a support website to aid pregnant women who are facing discrimination in the workplace.
Nicola's story doesn't end there, she demonstrated an extraordinary act of kindness—donating a kidney to a woman she met through Pregnant Pickle.

During this episode my guest today is Emma Wall, Practice Manager at a large General Practice in Derby. We take a deep dive into the challenges faced in leadership during remote and hybrid work environments, particularly focusing on emotions at work.
Primary care is a hugely challenging setting from an emotion perspective. Patients are unwell and/or emotionally charged already, so their ability to regulate their emotions is inhibited. Those providing primary care are often over stretched. Those that are there to help the patients and those providing the care are then contending with regulating their own emotions as well as the emotions of all those around them.
Our conversation touches on various aspects such as resilience, adaptability, communication strategies and understanding yourself better through tools like Myers-Briggs tests and Clifton's strengths finder. We discuss the importance of clear communication, setting expectations, engaging individuals before tasks, and being mindful of team dynamics.
Emotional labour and emotion work are subjects we have covered in episodes 2, 25, 26 and 27 as well as the special edition of episode 37. If you are after more on emotional labour listen to those podcasts next, links below.

Welcome to the Emotion at Work podcast. Today, we’re switching it up a little with Lizzi Philokyprou from the Emotion at Work team asking Phil questions she wish she knew about emotion(s) and emotional intelligence. While Phil opens and closes the podcast it is Lizzi asking the questions and shaping the conversation.
Phil as the co-founder of Emotion at Work has LOADS of knowledge and experience in his head which Lizzi wanted the listeners to know. Starting with some key definitions we move into the universality (or not) of emotions and then into emotion regulation strategies. Phil sprinkles a mix of research, practical examples and the odd film reference into this episode which Lizzi described after the recording as hugely interesting, relatable and helpful.

Welcome to a special edition of the Emotion at Work podcast. This episode is part of a double feature, and we've teamed up with our friends from Mind Tools FB (that's Mind Tools For Business) for a truly exciting collaboration. It all took place at the Festival of Work in London back in 2023, where we hosted a thought-provoking fringe event.
During our time at the Festival of Work, we discovered some fascinating insights and hot takes, and we can't wait to delve into them with you. In our previous Mind Tools episode, we tackled one of these hot takes, and today, we're diving headfirst into the topic of communities.
The hot take on our plate today is this: "L&D can never build communities as they're not targeted or rewarded for it." It's a bold statement, and we're eager to explore it from all angles.
We're joined by our guests, each bringing their unique perspectives to the table. We have Ross Garner and Nahdia Khan from Mind Tools, along with Lizzi Philokyprou from the Emotion at Work team.
So, grab your headphones and get ready for an engaging discussion as we unravel the intricacies of building communities in the world of Learning and Development. It's going to be an insightful journey, and we're delighted to have you along for the ride!
