Improvisation in practice: less planning, more action

Is it possible that everything you need to support your mental health is right at your fingertips, in an app, available 24/7? Sounds too good to be true, right? As you might expect, the reality is much more complicated.

W tym odcinku cyklu „Firma, która wspiera" dr Ewa Hartman rozmawia z Pauliną Gillan (Razum) - specjalistką z wieloletnim doświadczeniem w dziale HR, związaną z komunikacją wewnętrzną w firmie Respect Energy, a prywatnie zawodniczką kulturystyki - o tym, jak dyscyplina wypracowana w sporcie przekłada się na zarządzanie zespołem i budowanie dobrostanu pracowników w organizacji.

In this episode of the "Well Said" series, Andrzej Silczuk speaks with Tina Sobocińska—an HR advisor, university lecturer, and long-time HR director in international organizations—about why the future of leadership requires diversity, what holds women back from promotion, and how organizations can drive change here and now. We discuss: - why diversity in leadership is not just a matter of fairness, but a hard business imperative—and what the data says about it, - what defines a female leader—and why the metaphor of an orchestra conductor describes modern leadership better than that of a charismatic soloist, - how female perfectionism—understood as a fear of judgment—becomes one of the biggest traps on the path to promotion, - why a culture of learning from mistakes builds trust better than any perk, and how to implement it in practice, - where imposter syndrome comes from and why women often decline promotions that men would accept without a second thought, - how socialization into gender roles begins at home and what we can do about it as parents, leaders, and colleagues, - where women disappear from organizational hierarchies—and why this most often happens after maternity leave, - the difference between a mentor and a sponsor—and why we need the latter more than ever today, - how to prepare for the second half of your career before change becomes a necessity rather than a choice. One hundred and thirty-two years to full equality of opportunity—that is the estimate from the World Economic Forum. What can organizations do today to accelerate this change instead of waiting for future generations? This recording is from the Multi.Life channel—a wellbeing platform for companies.

In a world where everyone feels like an expert on someone else's life, maintaining your own backbone, your sense of self, and your peace of mind requires immense strength. In this episode of the "Well Said" series, Andrzej Silczuk talks to journalist Dorota Wellman about how to build inner resilience and self-worth without feeding on likes and hearts, and why valuable feedback—though sometimes difficult—is one of the most important tools for growth. In this episode, you will hear about: - why having privacy is the greatest treasure in today's world, - how to wisely distinguish constructive criticism that fosters growth from hate, which is usually just an expression of someone else's helplessness and frustration, - why online (pseudo)anonymity triggers the worst instincts in people and what to do about it, - why the "green pencil method" and focusing on what we do well is more valuable than pointing out mistakes with a red pen, - why accepting feedback from others, even after decades of experience, still makes sense and how to do it without taking offense at reality. Good feedback is creative; it can help us grow, change, and move forward. Hate is not its opposite. It is just noise. And the best thing you can do with it is ignore it.
