episode Jacinda Ardern on leading with empathy and overcoming self-doubt artwork
Jacinda Ardern on leading with empathy and overcoming self-doubt

When Jacinda Ardern was thrown into the race for New Zealand’s prime ministry just months before the general election in 2017, she had no intention of even running for the position—but she knew it was her responsibility to become the leader her country needed. In this episode, Adam and Jacinda reflect on strategies for closing confidence gaps, discuss the importance of compassion in leadership, and break down a phenomenon that New Zealanders call “tall poppy syndrome.” They also look back on Jacinda’s most pivotal decisions, from steering the country through the COVID pandemic to stepping down as Prime Minister.

episode The psychology of forgiveness with Michael McCullough artwork
The psychology of forgiveness with Michael McCullough

In this season of WorkLife, we’re pairing each of our regular episodes with a companion interview to do a deeper dive into the topic. This is the companion for our episode on the secrets of a great apology. Michael McCullough is a psychology professor at UC San Diego and a pioneer in the study of forgiveness, gratitude, and empathy—he finds that although forgiveness is important, it isn’t always the answer to conflict. Michael and Adam discuss why humans evolved to forgive, examine what causes people to hold grudges, and settle last episode’s debate about whether it’s appropriate to ask for forgiveness.     Host: Adam Grant (Instagram: @adamgrant [https://www.instagram.com/adamgrant/] | LinkedIn: @adammgrant [https://www.linkedin.com/in/adammgrant] | Website: adamgrant.net/ [http://adamgrant.net/]) Guest: Michael McCullough (Website: michael-mccullough.com/ [http://michael-mccullough.com/])  Links psychology.ucsd.edu/people/profiles/mmccullough.html [https://psychology.ucsd.edu/people/profiles/mmccullough.html] Subscribe to TED  Instagram: @ted [https://www.instagram.com/ted/?hl=en] YouTube: @TED [https://www.youtube.com/@TED] TikTok: @tedtoks [https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks?lang=en] LinkedIn: @ted-conferences [https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences] Website: ted.com [https://www.ted.com/] Podcasts: https://www.ted.com/podcaststed.com/podcasts [http://ted.com/podcasts] For the full text transcript, visit ted.com/podcasts/worklife/worklife-with-adam-grant-transcripts [https://www.ted.com/podcasts/worklife/worklife-with-adam-grant-transcripts] Want to help shape TED’s shows going forward?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
