32. Creating a Culture of Candour: Lessons in Truth Telling with Dominic Thurbon

Episode 32

Sunday, June 1, 2025 • Duration 43:44

Do you ever look around your organisation and think... are we just pretending everything’s fine?

In this episode, I talk with Dominic Thurbon about truthful leadership. What happens when lying becomes the norm, and how truth telling could be the biggest lever for real change in our organisations.

We cover the difference between positioning and spin, why some leaders use “candour” as an excuse to be rude, and how culture, fear and incentives all play into honesty at work.

You’ll hear why truth is more than just a value, it’s a strategy. Dominic shares powerful insights from his new book The Truthful Leader and the research behind why lies might get short-term results, but always unravel in the long run.

We also discuss practical ways HR teams and leaders can create psychologically safe spaces for honest conversations, without brutalising people in the process. If you're ready to cut through the spin and build a more authentic workplace, this episode’s for you.

Have you ever paid the price for being honest at work? Or seen truth telling transform a team? I'd love to hear your story. Connect with me on LinkedIn and let’s keep this conversation going.

31. You Hate People? Have You Thought of a Career in HR?

Episode 31

Sunday, May 18, 2025 • Duration 14:16

Ever thought "I hate people" and then realised... you're in HUMAN resources?

If you've ever felt over people, tired of the drama or drained from being everyone's emotional hijacks, this one is for you.

In this episode, I’m calling out the contradictions, chaos and humour that come with working in HR. From enforcing rules no one likes, to managing conflict, carrying others' emotions, and handling those daily WTF moments.

This is the real talk on what it’s like in the people business.
There is also a healthy serve of satire so don’t take it all too seriously!

But it’s not all sarcasm and eye rolls. I’m also sharing why, despite the bad days, HR is about partnering with people, not managing them. You’ll hear what it really means to navigate complex human behaviour, create positive cultures, and yes, sometimes be the bad guy (with a heart). If you’re wondering whether HR is still the right place for you, or need a reminder that you’re not alone, this one will hit home.

Before you go… do you secretly love solving human puzzles or are you just stuck in the trenches? Connect with us on LinkedIn and let me know. Better yet, have a listen and let me know who the Steve is in your workplace? Let’s chat.(#sorrysteve)
