POD Club: Relationships at Work

February might have us thinking about romantic, relationships, but what about work-related relationships? 

What can we learn from expert guests on podcasts about the behaviors, mindsets and structures which lead to more positive interactions and professional relationships?  

We'll focus on the small and large ways we can foster more positive interactions with those around us, even if we have very different perspectives and experiences. Esther Parel is an expert in this area - so we can start with a few of her podcast episodes:

• In the summer, Jessi Hempel’s “Hello Monday” podcast focused on the work setting  in our current moment of shift. The whole series is interesting. This episode with Esther Parel specifically speaks to creating an environment centered on making space for positive interactions.
• Esther Parel applies the skills of counseling to work relationships in her own podcast How’s Work. For an even deeper dive into a single work relationship, this episode, is fascinating:“Couples Therapy with My Boss.”

What other podcast episodes would you recommend? Feel free to message me your suggestions.

Note: In consideration of busy schedules, we aim to end by 8:45 to give a break before your next meeting.
