Understanding personal boundaries is vital for not just the employee as an individual but also employers, colleagues and all professional and personal relationships.

In this episode, Leah Lambart is back for her second episode on the show to unpack the importance of boundaries and how we set them and hold people to them. In the age of technology and hybrid work, it can be more and more difficult to establish these as, for many people, we want to please our customers, colleagues and family.

With all of these areas competing for our attention, we often put ourselves last, no matter what our industry is. 

Leah brings the latest Seek Research into the conversation and unpacks the themes we are seeing in the modern workforce. You can follow her updates on LinkedIn and explore her website here.

Please note that this episode is a recording from a live podcast/webinar for National Careers Week in partnership with the Australian Centre of Career Education (ACCE)  

Morrisby profiles are primarily used in government, independent and some catholic schools around Victoria and other states in Australia. The profile provides individuals with subjective data to support their career decision-making and spark career suggestions and conversations. It is used as a part of the My Career Insights program in Year 9 for government schools, and often, people assume that it is only appropriate for high school students. In this episode, Tyson and Craig Eastwood discuss the many use cases for Morrisby, with Tyson sharing his perspective on how he uses it in the services of Arrive & Thrive. In contrast, Craig shares the history of Morrisby, and some of the data points the tool captures.

The pair also run through the usual segments of the podcast, including book recommendations and what we are ROARING about! For more information, please explore the links below:
