About this episode

Listen to the rest of Mia's interview with Adam

Cast your mind back to the start of 2020. What was on your bingo card? Probably not words like burnout, languishing, cameras off, zoom & the great resignation. But two years down the track and here we are.

The way we work has fundamentally changed in an instant.

So how can we make sense of it?

In this episode, organisational psychologist Adam Grant will try to help us understand how the world can work smarter and better with these new cards we’ve been dealt.
