You know what you should be doing at work, whether it's speaking up, having the tough conversation or letting go of over-perfecting things. But actually doing it? Sometimes that’s a different story.In this episode of Confident at Work, I talk about the gap between knowing what you need to do and actually doing it. We’ll explore those behaviour’s which seem to stubbornly refuse to change despite your best efforts and intentions! Here's what you'll learn by listening: Why knowing what to do and actually doing it are not the same thing!How ‘fix-it mode’ often creates more pressure and less progress.The clues those stubborn behaviours contain, and how to start listening. Real change - which sticks - starts with exploring why the behaviour is happening, rather than forcing yourself to stop.Cover art by Jacob McFaddenTheme song by Melissa Carter @ Making Audio Magic
