#42 Emotions and culture with Jeremy Dean

"Emotions drive behaviour & yet we never talk about them in the workplace.. " Jeremy and I explore the place of emotions in the workplace and how we can make these conversations simpler and more accessible to create a different workplace environment. Daring to speak about emotions and having the vocabulary to do so is no simple feat. We delve into how to make the emotional layer of workplace culture explicit, and how to unlock the emotional potential of both individual leaders and of teams, through facing our own fears & assumptions, and those that are inherent to the system. Behaviours reinforce our emotions and shape our beliefs, and you cannot change behaviours until you change the way you think about them and the ensuing emotions. Jeremy shares his insights from working with globe organisations, communities and individuals on his ECD (Emotional Culture Deck) game and changing conversations on unlocking emotional potential in organisations and communities.
