Episode 179 Negative Emotions with Positive Results

It is often looked down upon to have negative emotions at work. Emotions like frustration, regret, tension, or sadness can be misconstrued in many ways. It is generally accepted that at work you must be positive and bring solutions - but what if you are simply having a human moment and show that you are frustrated? Is this good? Can negative emotions be positive? In this episode, the People Centric team discusses negative emotions at work, how to recognize them, how to use them, and how to turn them into leadership moments.

Episode 175 Success comes from Thinking Differently

We have been told recently that the way People Centric approaches problems is weird. The way we teach others to find solutions is weird. But successful! So, we thought we would break down why we address problems and obstacles the way that we do and share how you can do it too. We say that successful people don't have different problems, successful people think differently. Listen now to hear more about how to think differently and move things forward better.

Episode 174 A Job Description Reveal Party

Have you ever been doing a great job at work only to find out later that your boss didn't think that you were doing a great job? In our work, we have found that oftentimes managers think their employees are working on (or should be working on) things totally different from what they are actually working on. This leads to frustration on both sides and sometimes leads to employees quitting or managers firing employees. In this episode, the People Centric Team talks about why this happens, how to prevent it, and what to do if you think it is happening to you! Listen Now.
