    The most successful organizations throughout history are those that tap into the unique ability of people to be creative. It's a natural human desire to create, contribute and interact with things that are bigger than ourselves. Yet most HR systems don't deliver that, they prioritize compliance ahead of engagement control, ahead of leadership and tasks ahead of outcomes

    I'm delighted to be talking with Andrew Seinor, co-founder of The H Factor, a very different kind of human resources system.

    We talk about:

    · performance appraisals, dating back to the 60s and 70s

    · the performance appraisal process that was so demotivating that performance declined

    · why HR gets a bad rap

    · why people leave managers

    · why excessive focus on being a good person is not a good management strategy

    · how to lead people who come to work each day with the best intention

    · why employing a manager to “fix” the business is not a good strategy

    · drawing on skills and talents that are beneficial for the person and the business

    · creating space for curiosity – the culture of trying new things

    · the problem with HR performance rating systems

    · the courage to say “I don’t think this is the right task and here’s why"

    · what are your people actually doing?

    · letting go as a leader

    · the system that goes on forever

    · “Oh, you’re kidding! Why didn’t we know that?”

    Louise Karch is a self-confessed word-nerd. She’s an award-winning marketer, author, and speaker. When Louise arrived in Australia from Canada, she carved out her own niche as the Name Whisperer. But it was not without some trepidation; freaking out under-the-doona and fortifying herself with chocolate, she worked out that naming things was not only her gift but her niche.

    She has a fascinating story about how her business was flipped on its head with a light-bulb moment.

    This is the story of how her business developed a piece of software and a system to get people to take ownership of their roles and work effectively and more enjoyably without constantly being told what to do.

    She has stories about how human behaviour works – right from when she was a little kid learning how to play mum and dad off each other to over 25 years working in strategic HR Management in large private, family-owned, and publicly listed businesses.

    Before starting her own business, she was the Human Resources Manager for the Gull Petroleum Group of Companies in Australia and New Zealand.

  • Belle Lockerby is the best-selling author of “Awkward is the New Brave. Wipe-outs Happen, Get Back Up Anyway”.

    Belle has a unique way of telling her story and helping others to repurpose the past with humour, honesty and kindness.

    Belle has coached and inspired over a thousand people to create change in business and in life, encouraging everyone to be brave enough to be themselves and awkward enough to try uncomfortable things.

    I caught up with Belle shortly after her book was launched and hit the best-seller list. I couldn’t wait to share her wisdom and practical advice about what to do with fear - from crawling to the edge of the Grand Canyon to handling a frog.

    We didn’t talk about surfing, which is a big fear-busting challenge that Belle talks about in the book, but I’ll leave that for you to discover yourself when you read the book.

    Awkward is the New Brave. How the title came aboutThe value of hiring an editor. Asking for help, even if it feels uncomfortable, and how connections flowThe bits that didn't make the final cutWhen leadership is thrust on you; Awkward conversations handled with compassion and grace.Should I put my kids in my book?You do not deserve to be hidden, use your voice. Ask for help. Tell your story.
