Work Punks
Sticking the needle into accepted workplace practices.
There's lot wrong that goes on in the workplace today and Colin, Paul and Ben aren't afraid to point it out - in fact, they delight in it. What they like even more is debunking myths, slaughtering sacred cows, challenging assumptions and generally giving 'recieved wisdom' the skewering it truly deserves.
It's all about making the workplace better, more human and a place for thriving, not just surviving. Drawing upon their extensive experience and broad knowledge, they also offer examples of how to do it better, what more progressive approaches and more modern practices look like and what alternatives there are to the 'same old same old'.
It's time to take on the Status Quo and bring in a new wave!

We all hate the annual appraisals
Most companies above a certain size have some sort of standardised appraisal process, often to be carried out on an annual basis. It involves a template (or app) containing many questions to be answered, ratings to be handed out, percentages-completed to be filled in, you know the drill. And we all dread it, both managers and employees alike. So why do it? Just to get it over with? Or should we fight it, to get it changed into something useful? Listen to this episode on what our Punks think of it.
