Stop being nice at work (here’s how I stopped people pleasing)

Épisode 4

mercredi 24 juin 2026 • Durée 31:36

If you’ve ever avoided a difficult conversation because you didn’t want to upset someone, this episode is for you.

Heather explores the difference between being nice and being kind at work, and why people-pleasing can quietly hold you back as a manager and leader.

She shares personal stories from her own career, including uncomfortable conversations she has had to start, feedback that was difficult to hear, and the moments that helped her build confidence as a leader.

In this episode, Heather covers:

Why being “nice” is not always the same as being kind
How people-pleasing can damage trust and respect
Why avoiding difficult conversations often makes things worse
How honest feedback helps you grow
Why great managers care enough to tell the truth

Because leadership is not about keeping everyone happy BUT helping people grow.

How I manage Gen Z at work (without lowering my standards)

Épisode 9

mercredi 29 juillet 2026 • Durée 32:19

Is Gen Z really difficult to manage, or do they simply expect better management?

Heather explores why Gen Z are often labelled lazy, entitled, or difficult to manage, and why the real problem may be the way workplaces try to lead them.

In this episode, Heather covers:

Why Gen Z are not as difficult to manage as people think
How to communicate with Gen Z more openly and honestly
Why progression matters even when a promotion is not available
How to offer flexibility without losing structure or accountability
Why psychological safety and high performance can exist together
How the TAPES framework can help you manage Gen Z more effectively
What to do when someone still refuses to meet the required standard

Because managing Gen Z is not about giving them everything they want. It is about understanding what helps them do their best work, then leading them with clarity, trust and accountability.
