Emotion At Work

Episode 20 - Emotion at Work in Competitive Contexts

In this episode of the podcast, I chat with an athlete that has competed at the highest level in his class. As a Visually Impaired (VI) judo fighter Jonathan (Jono) Drane has represented team GB at the Paralympic Games in Rio 2016 finishing 5th in the 81kg weight category while having a torn Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL).  Prior to Rio, he won gold in this first competitive VI championship in the US and won a Bronze medal in the 2014 IBSA world championships.  
 
During the podcast, we explore how he personally experienced emotion in the ring, how it affected him, what he did before, during, and after his bouts to work with emotion.  We also explore how, in one of his current roles in coaching judo, he explores emotions with those he coaches.  We also discuss strategies that Jono has (or still does) use to work with emotion(s) and his view of how his life and neurodiversity (ADHD) impact his ability to effectively work with emotion(s).

Episode 19 - Emotion at Work in Humanising the workplace

In this episode, I am joined by Sarah Taylor Ph.D. where we explore her research and practice into the ways we can enrich workplaces by humanizing it and how we can also bureaucratize it too.  Our focus is her research in an elderly care setting and what employees and care workers in that setting really enjoy about their work, and how it is not necessarily what lines up with any set of 'professional standards'. 
We begin with setting a philosophical and sociological backdrop and then dive into a lot of detail as to what her research has found.  We close by learning more about how Sarah is taking her research into a more corporate setting and looking at how her findings can inform ways that her organization manages performance.

Episode 17 - Emotion at Work Stories - Burnout

This episode picks up the Emotion at Work in Stories theme I shared at the start of 2018. This time with Amy King as my guest, we take a trip into how burnout has been a part of her life in recent years.
We explore the knowing and not knowing that you are becoming burned out, how loving what she does has contributed towards Amy's burnout experience and how she now approaches life (or does her best to do so) in a way that will prevent it from happening again.   
As well as exploring the practical, tangible and everyday things Amy has done and continues to do, we get into how psychology, sociology and wider aspects of burnout.
With this being a Stories episode there aren’t many references as such. There are some things from the news and other places we talk about and here are the links to those things:

Episode 16 - Emotion at Work Stories - Imposter Syndrome

This episode picks up the Emotion at Work in Stories theme I shared at the start of 2018. This time with Amanda Arrowsmith as my guest, we take a trip into how imposter syndrome has been a part of her life from early childhood but really took hold in her early twenties.
We explore this internal voice that often tells her that she’s not good enough, not enough, that she will be found out and can cause crippling self-doubt. We get into where that voice has come from, what has given it voice, how she quietens it, her strategies for working with it effectively.
As well as exploring the practical, tangible and everyday things Amanda has done and continues to do, we get into how society, norms and life can shape the formation and growth of this ‘inner critic’.

Episode 15 - Emotion at Work in Memory & Learning

In this episode, you get to hear Nick Shackleton-Jones, Sukh Pabial & I explore and share our views of emotion, cognition, memory, and learning.  The conversation takes turns and explores areas I didn’t plan or expect and was really interesting all the same.
 
We talk about the affective context model where Nick suggests that as humans everything that we think, has an emotional basis behind it.  We talk about using repetition in learning, making things memorable and emotionally evocative, and how at times we just need to attend to what others are concerned about.
 
As we cover a lot of ground, there are a LOT of resources and links all listed below.

Episode 14 - Emotion at Work in Stories - Phil Willcox

In this episode, I tell my story or at least some of my story of 2017.  I found 2017 really hard.  Physically and more importantly (for this podcast) I found it emotionally hard.  I feel lucky that feeling content and settled with life is something that generally comes easy to me. 2017 was not like that.  Here I talk about how I struggled with my identity, with how I saw myself and that the reality was not something I wanted to or chose to face.  As well as this sharing of my 2017 I talk about what is to come for the podcast in 2018.

Episode 13 - A Pause & Reflection from Phil

In this episode, I stop and take stock. I do this about the podcast series so far, how the episodes have affected me and my practice, and about some stuff that has been going on for me personally.  I let you know a little more about the future podcasts still to come and what you can expect from the rest of the year.

Episode 12 - Emotion at Work in Impression Management

This is a long episode. Mainly because this is a complex and complicated area.  Also though, Prof Dawn Archer and I are research colleagues and friends too. In this episode we get into a whole host of interesting and linked topics:
Impression Management - how we work (non)strategically to manage how others see us
Self Presentation - how we will work to present our 'best possible self' according to context
Face and facework - the lines we negotiate, others give us or let us take in interaction and how they shape our identity(ies)
Dark side of EI - how emotional intelligence can be used to change behavior of others
Principles of Influence - linking to Cialdini's 6 principles (Authority, Liking, Social Proof, Scarcity, Commitment and Consistency and Reciprocity)
This was a joy to record and I hope that you enjoy listening to it. 
Yes, it is
a) long
b) geeky
c) academic at times
d) practical at times 
It is also a whole lot of fun and you, dear listener, are getting a deep insight into human interaction.  ENJOY!!!!

Episode 11 - Emotion at Work in Clean Language

Fair warning: this language isn't really clean ;)
Ever since I heard about 'clean language' I was not convinced it can be a thing.  Then I studied linguistics and decided it most definitely was not a thing, in fact, it was a load of rubbish.  However, as opposed to ignoring and dismissing it I wanted to explore it.  So I got in touch with the guest of this podcast episode, Judy Rees.  We had a chat on Linked In where I said 'I think this is bunkum' and we arranged a call to discuss more.  I enjoyed that initial chat so much I wanted to get Judy on to the podcast and here she is.  So, we discuss:
Clean Language is not a thing - but there are degrees of cleanliness 
There are some peer-reviewed academic and popular research to suggest clean language has a place (some links below)
That the principles of clean language are set around a core set of questions with a fairly rigid structure and format which you interchange with another person or peoples language (again more links below)
I really enjoyed this chat and once again played with the format and asked Judy to use some 'clean language' questions on me.  Enjoy

Episode 10 - Emotion at Work in Everyday Talk

Since I decided to start the podcast I wanted to get this guest on the series. Jessica Robles is the co-author of one of my most thumbed books (details below) and someone I have interacted with on Twitter for a while.  How we interact is a fascinating thing to me and in this episode, on Everyday Talk we get into:
Does emotion shape talk or does talk shape emotion?
Pragmatic Markers - how speakers indicate things to each other, e.g. turn-taking
Politeness rules - the ways we adapt communication to be considerate of others
The floor - what you have when speaking
News announcements - when people share news in talk
Face - parts of your identity that you negotiate in interaction
Turn-taking - how conversation passes from one to another
Repairs - when you fix misunderstandings in talk
Deception - how we can deceive in talk
Stance - the ways people involved in interaction indicate their thoughts and feelings on things

Episode 9 - Emotion at Work in Neuroscience

This podcast is about sharing ideas, insights, research and experiences around emotion in the workplace. Since I decided to start the podcast I wanted to get a genuine neuroscientist on the show. This was important for me because there is a lot said about neuroscience in the workplace and I am just not sure that lab-based research can be generalized into the workplace.
I also talk a lot about being more evidence-based in our practice.  But with neuroscience, it is so so niche.  The types of tests being done/run, the methodologies used, the generalisability of the results out into the wider world.  I wanted to give a better insight.  
So, my guest Matt Wall (link to bio below) and I talk about myths, misconceptions, issues with methodology.  We talk about when parts of the brain have defined and specific functions (e.g. The occipital lobe) and when there are many other or more parts of the brain involved (e.g. Emotion involves more than the Amygdala).
We also get into:
the potential issues with reducing complex things to simple explanations
proximate and ultimate explanations of things and the relative benefits of both
what the world of work can really learn from neuroscience research (and you may not like the answer)

Episode 8 - Emotion at Work *SPECIAL EDITION* listener questions

This podcast is about sharing ideas, insights, research and experiences around emotion in the workplace.  Here we explore the breadth and depth of emotions so listeners can use what we discuss to help enrich lives or help protect from or reduce harm.  We focus on the roles #emotion #credibility and #deception play in the workplace.
In this special edition, Phil asked on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter for questions from listeners.  These could be about any aspect of #emotion, #credibility or #deception or related to a particular episode so far.  The questions and who asked them are below and this time you just get to hear Phil's dulcet tones for the whole episode *lucky you* ;-)
Questions:
 
Annette Hill - @familyhrguru
 
When the idea of collaboration, sharing stories and social leadership is very current, is the need to keep this valid and grounded in what is happening now, even more acute?
 
How do we encourage and value this gradual and incremental way of learning?
 
Ross Garner - @RossGarnerGP
 
Are conversation rituals a useful crutch?
 
Patrick Mullarkey - @mentormullarkey
 
Can I ask a personal question that is tenuously linked to identity? What advice would Phil Willcox have given to himself ten years ago?
 
Sarah Taylor
 
Something I'm pondering on a lot these days is the balance between self-acceptance and self-improvement. When does the desire to change aspects of ourselves and our feelings become problematic?

Episode 7 - Emotion at Work in Vulnerability and Leadership

In this episode, Phil interviews two deep thinkers, authors and fascinating people; Khurshed Denugara and Claire Genkai-Breeze. We start with the idea of willingness as an underrated human trait. The willingness to 'as you go' share your weaknesses or flaws and be willing to work hard at the moment. We talk about 'near enemies' of things and as an example; the near enemy of being flawed but willing is the protocol of sharing weaknesses because that is what 'should be done. As well as talking around the ideas and experiences we have with our flaws and vulnerability we get into tips, techniques and advice for how as individuals and as colleagues at work, we can help with that. We also talk about how leadership is changing over time and the identity challenges that can bring so that leaders can be set and ready for the future. We talk a lot about the emotional aspects and experience of leadership and how we 'denumb' people from the way that leadership is approached. What Phil found really interesting is that spontaneously during the conversation, each of the participants was acknowledging their flaws and willing to listen and share with each other along the way. In his introduction, Phil says that he got 'lost' in this chat and forgot his role of host. Hopefully, he still did a good job with the podcast.  Enjoy ;-))

Episode 6 - Emotion at Work in Language and learning from a Forensic Linguist

For this episode, Phil interviews a friend and colleague Dr. Samuel Larner (Link to bio below) where they delve into the world of language and what it can tell us about individuals and their thoughts and feelings. We start off exploring the language in speech and the notion of 'formulaic language' and in particular that the speed and fluency of speech would be too much of a demand on our brain (cognitive load) to pick what we say one word at a time. Sam takes us into examples from his discipline (forensic linguistics) to talk about how language can be:
- Formulaic
- Distinct to cultures, socioeconomic groups and even down to an individual
- Used for indicating group solidarity and exclusion
- A way to establish the origin of a writer or speaker
- Crucial at the interface of language and law 
- Indicative of issues of power in discourse
We also explore the implications for people in Learning or Organisational Development and HR roles too.  Towards the end of the podcast, Sam also talks about his passion for his current research into how children disclose sexual assault.  He is looking to establish what (if any) language strategies children use to disclose and how others can help them to do so.
This was a  truly fascinating conversation and delve into language. 
Finally, an important point to note. Successful linguistic analysis needs deep and detailed training/analysis both as a linguist and in its application in forensic settings and so this podcast is intended to provide inspiration and challenge to find out more.  Please use the links below to find out more.

Episode 5 - Emotion at Work in talk - Negotiating Identity in conversation

In this episode, Phil talks with Georgie Nightingall about changing up the standard networking type conversation. A lot of the talk we do, especially in a networking-type setting is ritualized. What we mean by that is the types of questions we ask, the responses we give and the way we interact are almost pre-set.  A good example of this would be the classic 'So... what do you do?' type question at a networking event. During our conversation, we go on to explore conversations in the workplace, in teams, online and the link to the identity or identities we build for ourselves. We also cover identity at work, at home, and how the boundaries can/do/will become blurred. I thoroughly enjoyed my chat with Georgie and below are the links to all the different theories or concepts we have discussed:

Episode 4 - Emotion At Work in Purpose and Meaning at work

This podcast is about sharing ideas, insights, research, and experiences around emotion in the workplace.  Here we explore the breadth and depth of emotions so listeners can use what we discuss to help enrich lives or help protect from or reduce harm.  We focus on the roles #emotion #credibility and #deception play in the workplace.
For this episode, we interview Ben Fletcher and he is sharing with us his personal journey to working with a purpose.  It started at a function level with his role as an FD and translated it across to running a whole business when he stepped into the role of MD as Boots Opticians.  It was here that Ben and I met and collaborated.
During our chat, we explore breaking stereotypes, the role of identity in the workplace, and in particular the role the business has in shaping identity.  There is a balance in the podcast between what we think, how creating purpose-led functions/businesses happen, and advice for others wanting to go on the same journey. Ben tells us some of his top tips for creating a true purpose-led business and shares some resources that he has and continues to use to help create purpose-led businesses.  During our conversation, we talk about some specific things and they can be found here:

Episode 2 - Emotional Inauthenticity, Burnout and Coping Mechanisms

In this episode, we talk with SJ Lennie who is a DI at Greater Manchester Police who is taking a sabbatical to complete her Ph.D. at Manchester Metropolitan University. Her area of research, emotional inauthenticity, and the psychological impact of the emotional labor of police officers.  Having been a police officer for 15 years with a successful career at Hampshire and Greater Manchester Police and as a detective inspector.
We talk about the impact that organizational rules and culture have on both the emotions that you are allowed to display and to feel. This conversation broadens out into the coping mechanisms and strategies that police officers use to help navigate the emotional labor (the emotions they feel) and the emotional work (working with others' emotions) that is required in their job.
Some examples of these coping mechanisms include; suppression, repression, alcohol, and acting.  Interestingly, SJ's personal experience and her research are showing that the majority of strategies that are used are psychologically unhealthy for the officers. Finally, we bring the conversation together to think about what we the listeners can learn and take from this into our daily lives or into our workplaces.
 
We talk with each other about a variety of research papers and books and you can find links to them all here:

Episode 1 - Emotion At Work, our FIRST EVER podcast

This podcast is about sharing ideas, insights, research, and experiences around emotion in the workplace.  Here we explore the breadth and depth of emotions so listeners can use what we discuss to help enrich lives or help protect from or reduce harm.  We focus on the roles #emotion #credibility and #deception play in the workplace. 
Our first episode is more of a broadcast from our host, Phil Willcox, talking about why the Emotion at Work podcast is a thing. He sets out:
1) That the podcasts will be a series of conversations with researchers and/or practitioners and/or business leaders. Some guests may be in more than one camp.
2) Each podcast will be an authentic recording of the conversation that was had.  There will be no splicing editing or cutting out.  We want you the listener to hear it in its true form.
3) This podcast supports the goals of emotion at work as what you hear will be helpful in enriching lives or reducing harm in the workplace.  The guests and Phil talk about hints, tips, and techniques to help listeners find out how to work with emotion, credibility, and deception in the workplace more effectively.  
4) That we are a work in progress.  This is the first of many podcasts and we will learn and evolve with time.  We are excited you are along for the ride.
Thanks for listening!
