Emotions play a vital role in our world of work whether we are aware of it or not. And as leaders it is important to understand how our team is feeling and not only how well they are performing. The two are often linked! A motivated team is a "feeling" team that runs on positive emotions.
Tune in to Part 2 of the World of Work Podcast, the WoW, where Roxana Cristina Petrus, certified coach, psychologist and transformational expert joins Paola Granati in this episode all about the complex world of people and emotions at work. -
How we show up at work determines to a great extent how we feel at work. Our complex inner world made of emotions, thoughts, expectations of oneself and others plays a huge role in shaping our wellbeing. Unlike what many people think, we can greatly influence the environment we are in provided we check in with ourselves and keep ourselves honest! Occasionally taking the time to ensure that what we do is in line with what's important for us is a good reminder as to why we get up in the morning in the first place. Join Paola Granati and Roxana Petrus Part 1 of this episode of the World of Work podcast, the WoW.
Roxana is a coach, psychologist and consultant with a background in psychotherapy and transformational coaching. Originally from Romania, Transylvania (yes, the place with all the vampires), now living in beautiful Luzern on a farm surrounded by llamas, alpacas, dogs, cats and the stillness of breathtaking nature.
With over a decade of experience, she currently supports individuals, leaders, and teams in achieving their goals and navigating personal and professional challenges. She delivers individual and team coaching, training and diverse learning experiences around human skills development, emotional agility, communication and collaboration, productivity and satisfaction, leadership and self-leadership.

Short work sprints, transactional exchanges, project driven employment cycles: this is the future of work. It's less about loyalty and more about convenience, getting things done and moving on. But is this really the type of working future that brings fulfilment to people? Or maybe fulfilment comes from other spaces? Lots of questions come to mind when exploring the topic of work for the upcoming generation, their expectations and what this means for leaders! Tune in to Part 2!

If you've been in the same professional swim lane for too long you may risk being stuck there, which is great if it's what you want but it may not be so great if you project your career towards the future where it's less about sticking to what you know and more about getting the skills you need to move ahead.

The conversation with Dean continues as we explore how open talent market platforms are changing the way companies manage talent and career development. The example at Schneider Electric is one of the many as companies are using digital technology at scale to facilitate the mapping and matching of skills and opportunities. The implications for leaders and HR are significant but the greatest shift is for the employees themselves who can benefit from direct access to mentors, projects and career opportunities on a easy to use platform!

In this episode I share my thoughts on my first real music video production experience: what I discovered, what I struggled with and what I loved!
The making of the "1929 - A Woman With A Soul" Video was truly revealing for it gave me a sneak peek into a World of Work I had never experienced before. The amount of work, the attention to detail, the constant eye on the budget and the ability to give clear instructions and directions to the cast and the team are traits you need to have to be in this profession. For sure there are many more but these ones struck me as being particularly important!
At the end of the day, whatever area you choose to pursue in your world of work, there are no short cuts. You cannot cheat your way to success and to accomplishment. Sometimes you may get lucky but you cannot count on luck alone. So choose wisely and enjoy making mistakes as you learn!
A big thank you goes to all the amazing people who took part of the project!

In today's episode I put the spotlight on a different world of work, the world of work of NGOs in general and of Save the Children in particular. I met Adrian Förster, CEO of Save the Children Switzerland recently as I am hosting a live music and fundraising event for Save the Children on December 11 in Zürich and I thought it would be a great opportunity to learn more about what their world of work is like! What are the challenges they face? What's it like to work in an NGO? What led Adrian to pursue this path? How easy is it to attract talent? How do they measure success? As it's quite an unknown world for me, and I suspect for many people, I had loads of questions!

Part 2 of "How to Become the CEO of your life" continues as we talk about performance appraisals and how the most important focus is on building up on your strengths and making sure you are the best you can be at those while not ignoring any disturbing noise that may come from your weaknesses. If we don't address the noise then there is the risk that the rest of our talents are not even seen. But "fixing oneself" is not a resourceful way of being and thinking as it presupposes that one is broken and that to be successful one has to fit in other people's model of the world. A simpler way is to figure out what you want, what you're good at, what you want to be a part of, where you can make a difference and work hard!

In this episode, I was sitting on the other side of the microphone as guest speaker at Lewis Maleh's podcast and LIVE show called The Recruitment Show. Lewis invited me to talk about my story and share some thoughts on my experience and what it's been to change paths and become a CEO of my life, which to me means a Creative Explorer of Opportunities! In PART 1, we touch upon many topics: how people can take control of their careers, the importance of knowing how the corporate system works if you want to be successful in that environment, and even more importantly how to value your self worth. If it's true that people are the most important assets in companies then we have to start believing that ourselves first !
