Future of Work: What skills will kids need to thrive in the future workforce?
jeudi 10 novembre 2022 • Durée 44:24
"Job crafting is something we should be teaching to school students. How do I craft my job in the smallest way to maximise my purpose in life?"
Do you worry about your children's ability to thrive in the future workplace?
In the survey that my co-host for this podcast series Dr. Joe Sweeney ran to give us some juicy data for our conversations, an overwhelming 79% of parents answered 'YES' to that very question. Understandably, a key concern that came up was about job security for our future workforce. Parents are asking:
- Will my kids have the same secure work experience that I had or will their life be constantly adapting, changing jobs, scrambling to find employment?
To answer this question, Joe and I embarked on a conversation about "the dynamic nature of the future of work" and the skills that kids (and all of us) will need as the nature of work changes into the future.
And because the joy of podcast conversations is that they are rarely linear, we also explore:
- The purpose of purpose at work and the role that employers can play in helping us to thrive at work through social contribution
- Why it's important that we get involved in policy making to make the future what we want it to be
- Motivation and the mechanisms that drive it
- The top, timeless skillsets we need to cultivate in our children for them to thrive in the future including communicating effectively, empathy, stress management, complex problem solving, critical thinking, creativity and self-regulation.
- Neurodiversity, where it works well at work and while we're all neurodiverse in some ways.
- The importance of understanding yourself and others for thriving at work
- Tips on the activities parents can engage in with their kids in to enhance the necessary skillsets. There's an infographic sheet that comes with each episode as a bit of advanced reading/homework for parents. Don't forget to download a copy!

Identity, Vulnerability and Everyday Leaders with Psychologist Matthew Condie
mercredi 20 février 2019 • Durée 56:47
Matt is the kind of eclectic psychologist that I love talking to. He's held several key roles in clinical psychology including child protection, youth and adult mental health, forensic drug and alcohol, emergency psychiatric services, perinatal and infant mental health, and refugee mental health working in refugee camps overseas. But Matt also has sport in his veins and he works with athletes and as an educator in the United States, teaching in the area of Sport and Performance psychology and leadership.
In this conversation Matt and I traverse the terrains of identity, vulnerability, self compassion and leadership.
•We explore the different identities that we possess - worker, family member, child, sibling, partner, parent - and how it's easy to get lost in these to the detriment of who we are as individuals.
•We discuss values and how knowing your core values helps you stay true to yourself
•Matt introduces us to self-compassion and its importance in complex situations and emotions.
•Brene Brown's book, Dare to Lead, comes up and we examine what we means by leaning in to vulnerability in order to experience our full range of emotions and possibilities.
•And we demonstrate our own vulnerability as we grapple with some tech challenges and accept that failure and struggle is part of life and success.
Join me for this thoughtful and thought-provoking conversation.

•Strength-based parenting - What are strengths and how do you identify them in your child?

Don't Pursue Happiness, Prepare for Wellbeing. Intellectual Adventuring & Thrivability with Professor Lindsay Oades
mardi 22 janvier 2019 • Durée 01:04:51
Distress is a contentious topic. We no longer accept 'toughen up, don't cry' as the appropriate message for our kids, schools, even workplaces but my guest today argues that 'medicalising' distress and jumping too quickly to diagnoses and clinical support might not be helping either.
Professor Lindsay Oades is the Director of the Centre for Positive Psychology at The Melbourne Graduate School of Education. He firmly believes that "wellbeing is everybody's business" and his mission is to enable others to enable others.
In this episode of The Potential Psychology Podcast Lindsay and I discuss:
•How we learn to thrive and the complexity of well being
•Sharing the language of well being
•Putting well being on the agenda at a national and international level
•Aiming for more than the prevention of illness
•How our schools and communities act as a lever for healthier generations
•Lindsay's 'thrivability theory'.
It's a conversation that will inspire you to think about preparing future generations for mental health, happiness and well being.
