Business

Society & Culture

Frequency: 1 episode/91d. Total Eps: 5

Tired of corporate jargon and shiny buzzwords? So are we. Workplace Jam is the podcast that cuts through the fluff to explore what really makes or breaks a workplace - and the people in it.

Hosted by the team at The Human-Centric Workplace, each episode is a no-BS, curiosity-fuelled dive into the sticky stuff: culture, leadership, work-life (dis)harmony, the future of work, and the messy human realities in between.

Some episodes will be deep. Some will be downright silly. All will be jam-packed with honest stories, brilliant guests, practical wisdom and takeaways - and a few surprises we haven’t thought of yet.

You Are the Captain of Your Own Ship

Season 1 · Episode 5

Wednesday, July 1, 2026 • Duration 34:20

This week, we're talking about one of the most powerful concepts you've probably never been taught properly - locus of control.

From handling uncertainty and leading through difficult times, to building resilience, setting ambitious goals and growing a business from scratch, we explore why the most effective leaders focus less on what happens to them and more on what they can influence.

Along the way we celebrate the launch of The Human-Centric Leader, reflect on what it really takes to write a book, discuss the power of relationships over transactions, and share why dreaming big only works when you're prepared to do the work that follows.

We also chat about optimism, growth mindset, the poem Invictus, and why being the captain of your own ship matters far more than waiting for calmer seas.

If you've ever felt like life, work or leadership is happening to you, this episode is your reminder that while you can't control every storm, you can always choose how you steer the boat.

The Lock In, Lock Through

Season 1 · Episode 4

Thursday, May 28, 2026 • Duration 36:52

In this episode, Simone and Louisa explore one of Brené Brown's most transformative concepts: the need to decompress between life's different worlds. Whether you're transitioning from a high-stress job to family life, or from home chaos into leadership, the space between matters more than you think. They dive into real examples: military deployments, work-from-home tensions, and the classic "what's for tea?" trigger and connect this single insight to emotional intelligence, listening skills, and the frameworks that help us show up as better leaders and partners.

Because sometimes, you just need 15 minutes in the car.

AI, Hard Work and the Human Side of Success

Season 1 · Episode 3

Monday, May 11, 2026 • Duration 28:20

In this episode of Workplace Jam, Simone Fenton-Jarvis and Louisa Clarke unpack the messy reality of modern work, leadership and what happens when technology starts changing faster than humans can adapt.

From hay fever and hibernation habits to AI, resilience, workplace culture and the future of work, the conversation explores what it really means to “work smarter” without losing the human side of work completely.

The episode dives into:

Why hard work alone no longer guarantees success
The tension between working hard and working smart
AI, productivity and the risk of outsourcing human thinking
Why experience, storytelling and asking better questions still matter
Resilience in leadership and surviving the chaos of workplace life
The rise of influencers and shifting perceptions of success
Bias in AI and the assumptions technology still makes about people
Why imperfect, human workplaces may become more valuable than ever

As always, it’s honest, reflective, slightly chaotic in places and grounded in real-world leadership experience.

"What...Now?"

Season 1 · Episode 1

Friday, July 4, 2025 • Duration 31:46

In our very first jam podcast, Simone drops an unplanned idea on Louisa (spoiler: she’s thrilled). Together, we dive into our first sticky topic: humans vs. machines. Expect laughs, more than a few tangents, and some properly human honesty about what we lose - and what we gain - when we automate everything but our humanity.
