Stepping back, with Kathy Sharkey

Episode notes

In this season of the show, diving into the importance of health and wellbeing as an integral part of leadership. Work is killing us. Sure, fewer people die on construction sites or factories but it is killing us nonetheless...just much more slowly. Kathy Sharkey and I have worked together since her days as an HRD - first when she was a delegate on one of our programmes and later as a colleague running leadership programmes together. She is now working as a consultant and spending more time at leisure. And it’s since she slowed down professionally that she’s discovered what work was doing to her health. In this conversation we discuss - How poor health when you’re a leader is normalised. The challenge of joining in with ‘team fitness’ activities when you don’t want your colleagues to see you look sweaty or wearing a swim suit. The concept of forced jollity!
