People Soup - Behavioural Science For A More Meaningful Way To Work

Season 3 Episode 21 On Friday I had the great opportunity to visit the University of Chichester and speak to some of their Masters Students about ACT in the workplace and coaching. I was invited by Ian Tyndall, who is a cognitive behavioural psychologist and senior lecturer there, as well as running the Functional Behavioural Science Laboratory. Of course I was keen to grab Ian as a guest and the conversation was fabulous. He's such a warm and generous man and can tell a story like no other. Listen on to hear more about: * why he would have never predicted a career which involved speaking in public, something that he now loves, * his exploration of how language impacts anxiety and our response to stressful events, * a pivotal moment about his interview at the University of Chichester, * and a moment when he experienced a difficult performance review. We conclude Part 1 with Ian reflecting on the importance of being kind and compassionate in our collaborations with each other - and with ourselves.
