Mere diversity isn’t sufficient; true inclusion means employees feel they belong in their roles, in their teams, and within the organisation. Yet, achieving a strong sense of inclusion remains a challenge. Many companies grapple with implementing effective programs that tangibly enhance employees’ feelings of belonging. Well, this is a talk that screams “you belong here!” to everyone in your workforce.
Farming is not just a job, it’s a way of life which comes with its unique stressors and risks. While working in the countryside can be rewarding and calming, it can also feel isolating.
John partnered with the Farming Community Network in Maldon District to go back to basics and improve wellbeing with a hog roast, a drink and a good old yarn. This is the kind of safe, entertaining, community feeling we can also bring to you, tailored to the topics and needs of your audience.
People often feel nervous and uncomfortable when speaking to someone living with cancer, which can lead to unintentionally saying the ‘wrong’ thing, something inappropriate or, worse still, not saying anything at all. That’s why we partnered with the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation for the great campaign ‘Follow My Lead’.
People across the UK with lung cancer informed us of how they felt about the language used around them. They most disliked those terms that conveyed pity, such as ‘I feel so sorry for you’, closely followed by ‘you’re so brave’, a ‘victim’ and ‘lost their fight’. Many also resented having their life-partner described as their ‘carer’. However, what enthuses some is loathed by others.
Drawing on the feedback, we collaborated to develop this poem, which aims to be humorous and thought-provoking, to open up and improve conversations around lung cancer. Listen to John discuss this on Sky News.
