What is it that makes a job enjoyable and fulfilling?\xa0 While you\u2019re likely to have your own very individual answers to that question, chances are it\u2019ll be to do with what you\u2019re required to do, how much freedom you have, whether you think it\u2019s worthwhile and how well it plays to your skillsets and interests.

Yet, all too often, companies focus more on profit and less on creating environments that truly allow people to flourish. My guest on this episode, Philippa White, thinks things can be done differently.

She\u2019s the founder of TIE Leadership and the author of a brand new book, Return on Humanity: Leadership lessons from all corners of the world. In her work and in her book, she argues that it\u2019s possible and desirable to chart a new course\u2014one that recognizes our shared humanity as the ultimate driver of innovation, resilience, and satisfaction in the workplace. If\xa0that sounds idealistic, it is, but it\u2019s also realistic.

In our discussion, we explore:

• Philippa's career and what led her to do what she does now, including a fascinating story about a member of her own family;
• How experiential learning can help people to recognise their own strengths and weaknesses;
• The TIE leadership approach and the benefits this brings;
• Why leadership that focuses on humans over profits is more sustainable and will yield better results;
  
  And much, much more.
