  • Forgiveness as a business leader
    Dec 3 2020

    Welcome to New Rules: the podcast about how leaders, entrepreneurs and businesses must change, break and re-write the rules to innovate in our ever-changing and complex world. Host, Ruth Cooper-Dickson (Positive Psychology Practitioner) will be joined by a guest who is a leader and respected expert in their own industry having a real honest conversation about their experiences of innovating their business through the lens of a positive psychology theme.  

    Our last episode of the season had to finish on a deep topic and the wonderful David McQueen and I go there with the concept of forgiveness. David literally has the best energy of any human I know, and the conversation is unstoppable (by his own confession he is an open book!). David is a leading executive coach, facilitator and speaker. He is the co-founder of Q Squared, a leadership development company and the host of the Leadership Decoded podcast. David brings a refreshing insight of adopting forgiveness in the workplace, especially in leadership. Brutally honest about how he needs to forgive himself before sitting and listening to others with empathy, and how he has reconciled sharing his business knowledge with the wider public whilst simultaneously building his highly successful family firm.

  • Authenticity, connection and imposter phenomenon
    Nov 26 2020

    Welcome to New Rules: the podcast about how leaders, entrepreneurs and businesses must change, break and re-write the rules to innovate in our ever-changing and complex world. Host, Ruth Cooper-Dickson (Positive Psychology Practitioner) will be joined by a guest who is a leader and respected expert in their own industry having a real honest conversation about their experiences of innovating their business through the lens of a positive psychology theme.  

    I first met Jo Wimble-Groves at a FORA panel for International Women’s Day in 2019. Immediately I was attracted to her warm presence and down-to-earth self, so it was fitting I wanted to explore the concept of authenticity with her on this episode. Jo is a multi award-winning tech entrepreneur and co-owner of Active Digital which she has run with her brother for over two decades. A vocal STEM ambassador, a mother of three, the creator of the Guilty Mother blog and her first book is due to be published in late 2021! Seriously, the woman is a legend. Jo advocates the importance of believing in yourself, the art of connection and authenticity in your business. It is refreshing to hear that even when we are at the top of our career game, we can all experience imposter phenomenon, especially when 10 Downing Street requests your presence!

  • How to ‘be more scientist’ in your creativity and flow
    Nov 19 2020

    Welcome to New Rules: the podcast about how leaders, entrepreneurs and businesses must change, break and re-write the rules to innovate in our ever-changing and complex world. Host, Ruth Cooper-Dickson (Positive Psychology Practitioner) will be joined by a guest who is a leader and respected expert in their own industry having a real honest conversation about their experiences of innovating their business through the lens of a positive psychology theme.  

    In this episode I dig deep on the concept of creativity and being ‘in flow’ with the phenomenal, award-winning mental health campaigner, Meg Zeenat Wamithi. Meg is a revolutionary young leader who, inspired by her own difficult experience, created a youth-led mental health research and development company to support those suffering with mental health issues. Meg talks about how to ‘be more scientist’ and how we can all unlock creativity and flow simply by asking more questions.
