Burnout & wellbeing at work: How do we manage them? #03

In this episode, Ben chats to organisational psychology experts Associate Professor Michelle Tuckey (University of South Australia) and Ms Heather Ikin (formerly of Workplace Health &amp; Safety Queensland) about what bullying means, how common it is, and where it is most common. We then tackle the two biggest issues: what causes bullying, and what can you do about it? Go to MindOnTheJob.com for more resources on this topic.

I/O psychology, HR & workplace excellence: This is MOTJ! #01

People at work are the source of complex problems and opportunities. Why do workplace bullies bully? Why do dedicated workers burn out? Why do interviewers sometimes pick the wrong candidates? What makes organisations work? What else has scientific research shown about how to run organisations, and what we should be doing differently?Join Dr Ben Searle and his expert guests as they explore the fascinating and valuable world of organisational (IO) psychology.

I actually don’t work in an office job at the moment but since I know the host personally I listened, and I was delighted to hear all kinds of tips that non-office organizations can also use. I volunteer a lot and have run into many of these same issues being discussed, and in volunteer organizations people will just quit if it goes bad. I wish some of my former volunteer manager would listen to this podcast to learn ways of managing frustrations and burnout before they drive people away, and I hope listening makes me a better manager myself.
