Better At Work with Cathal Quinlan

How to be Better at Work - Better We

Listen on

Episode notes

Welcome back to ‘part-two’ of our mini-series ‘How to be Better at Work’ where we delve into the essentials of improving ourselves and our relationships.

In this three-part mini-series, Cathal Quinlan and Annette Sloan share 9 brain-friendly, bite-sized insights from world experts in workplace relationships, behavioural science and performance.

In this episode we delve into ‘Better We’, focusing on three key areas: trust, feedback, and conflict management.

We discuss:

  • How trust is the bedrock of effective teamwork and a lack of trust can lead to reduced effort, productivity and higher turnover rates!
  • Actions to build trust - because when employees feel trusted, they perform better and exceed expectations!
  • How feedback can trigger a fight-or-flight response and how to hijack the brains inbuilt responses to stay in ‘discovery mode’ and avoid shutting down. 
  • Why we love the ‘WRAP’ approach (instead of the sh** sandwich!) 
  • Strategies for navigating conflict by understanding the other person’s perspective and finding common ground.
  • Annette’s step-by-step approach to managing conflict. 

We hope these insights empower you to foster a better work environment!
