048 - Your staff won't tell it like it is, but we will! We're talking LEADERSHIP 🏅

We hear a lot about leadership from CEOs and managers, but we rarely hear the perspective of people who aren't leaders! This week we're talking all things leadership, including what makes a great boss, what makes a terrible boss, and if you're a boss, why you should care! Seriously though, there are some real gems in here so make sure you tune in.

😢 Seasonal Affective Disorder https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_affective_disorder

💄 It's great to be a woman! Unless you don't support other women, then you should take a look in the mirror.

📉 Female leaders are declining worldwide, but women are typically perceived to be more capable than men?! https://hbr.org/2019/06/research-women-score-higher-than-men-in-most-leadership-skills

050 - Our 50th episode special!! Penny and Britt's 3 biggest FAILURES 💥

Sorry we've been away for a few weeks! We are SO happy to be back.

We know it's impossible to focus during this chaotic time, so this week, we thought we'd share our biggest work failures to make you laugh, cringe, and hopefully realise that failure is normal and ok. Our audio quality is not as great as usual, apologies! It will be better next time, promise :)
