My guest on today's show is cofounder of Thriviae and Workplace Performance Strategist, Luke Mulcahy.

For the last few years Luke and his team have been developing a revolutionary platform that help support organisations in tackling some of the most pressing challenges of the modern workplace.

His recently published academic paper and research report introduces the Periodic Table of Workplace Thriving, which I have to say really spoke to my love of order and organisation. It structures 24 enablers and over 100 measurable elements that shape wellbeing, performance and development across organisations.

We began by focusing on the tricky topic of PURPOSE. What this really means, why it's important, and some of the challenges in articulating it as well as creating teams where there is a shared sense of purpose.

As predicted, our conversation ran into a number of different topics including belonging, multi-generational workforces, burnout and team cohesion.

If you want to find out more about Luke and the work he is doing you can find him on LinkedIn and his website, and I recommend having a read of the white paper and academic paper if it's a topic you're interested in!

Hello and welcome to A Bit Of A Boost with me, George Anderson

I'm a wellbeing and performance coach, speaker and author and this podcast brings together guest experts, inspirational stories and ideas that I hope will you a bit of a boost.

My guest today is a long time client and personal inspiration of mine, Laura Chandler.

I've seen her overcome many challenges and completely transform her life over the last few years, but life has really been testing her in the last 18 month.

Laura's approach to adversity, challenges and change isn't just inspirational, it's also instructive. In our conversation she shares many of the strategies she has put to use to help her navigate some of the most challenging months of her life.

Welcome back to A Bit Of A Boost with me, George Anderson!

Today's episode is a whilstle stop tour of 84 different energy-boosting ideas, taken from one of the free Boost Toolkit resources I created for my new book By Design Not Default.

When I was writing the book I originally included these within a chapter, but there was way too much in it so I relegated it to an appendix. Then on the second or third rewrite it still felt like it was bloating the book, so I took them out completely and added them to the resource pack.

They're not all going to be relevant to you... but imagine if you could just start doing two or three simple things and that they leave you with more energy, more resilience and more bandwidth?

I also outline 3 key concepts at the start of this episode that you need to keep in mind whenever you're faced with a load of 'stuff you could do'.

1) The Effort Impact Matrix

2) Momentum Habits

3) Flexibility is the key to consistency

If you don't already have a copy of the book head over to Amazon or the website (for a signed author copy) now, and you'll have the link for the rest of the Toolkit (including helpful guided worksheets and a link to a custom GPT 'AI Energy Coach' I have created to support with putting these ideas into practice.
