  • 188 | “That’s Not Special, That’s Just Me”: How to Spot the Strengths You Can’t See (with Michele Deeks & Martin Galpin)
    2026/10/23
    Have you ever dismissed something you do brilliantly because it feels easy? Perhaps a colleague has praised you for something and you've thought, "That's nothing special. Doesn't everyone do that?" The challenge is that some of our greatest strengths can be hidden in plain sight because they come so naturally to us.In this episode, we explore why recognising and using your strengths can have a powerful impact on your wellbeing, performance and enjoyment at work. We also look at why many people spend too much time relying on learned behaviours rather than the things that genuinely energise them.To help us unpack this topic, I'm joined by chartered psychologists Michele Deeks and Martin Galpin, co-founders of Work Positive and creators of the At My Best strengths tools. Together, we discuss the research behind strengths-based approaches, how to identify your own strengths, and simple ways managers, leaders and teams can help people recognise what they do best.What You'll LearnThe difference between a genuine strength and a learned behaviour, and why recognising the distinction mattersWhy the strengths that come most naturally to you can be the hardest ones to spotHow focusing only on weaknesses can limit development and prevent people from excellingPractical ways managers can help team members identify and use their strengths more oftenWhy detailed positive feedback is more powerful than generic praiseHow reflecting on times when you've been at your best can help you identify your strengthsA simple team activity that encourages colleagues to recognise and appreciate each other's strengthsChapters[00:00] Introduction: Hidden Strengths[00:31] Welcome, Guests & HR Planning Day[03:35] What Are Strengths?[04:21] Strengths vs Learned Behaviours[05:47] Fay's Personal Example: Time Management[06:43] The Impact of Overusing Learned Behaviours[08:26] Why Focus on Strengths at Work?[10:28] Fixing Weakness vs Building Strength[12:16] The Cost of No Positive Feedback[12:37] How Managers Can Weave In Strengths[13:06] The Leaving Party Effect[14:29] The Power of Detailed Positive Feedback[16:37] The Ripple Effect & Strengths Blind Spots[21:22] Using Strengths Cards with People Facing Redundancy[23:08] The Research Behind Strengths[27:10] Wellbeing & Financial Performance: Oxford Research[28:37] How to Identify Your Own Strengths[32:03] The Story Behind the Strengths Cards[35:24] Team Activities with the Strengths Cards[39:02] Book Recommendation & Job Crafting[43:46] Wrap UpUseful Links and ResourcesConnect with Michele Deeks on LinkedInConnect with Martin Galpin on LinkedInVisit the Work Positive websiteExplore At My Best resources and strengths toolsTry the free Strengths Self-Reflection ToolConnect with Fay Wallis on LinkedInLearn about Fay’s Inspiring HR Leadership ProgrammeTreat yourself to a copy of The Essential HR PlannerBook your ticket for one of the HR Planning DaysBooks & Articles Recommended in This EpisodePersonalization at Work: How HR Can Use Job Crafting to Drive Performance, Engagement & Wellbeing, by Rob BakerJournal article:Flourishing in New Zealand Workers: Associations With Lifestyle Behaviors, Physical Health, Psychosocial, and Work-Related Indicators (2015),by Lucy C.

  • 187 | What’s Next for Your Career? 4 Options to Help You Decide
    2026/10/09

    Career progression does not always have to mean securing a promotion or climbing further up the career ladder. You may want to deepen your expertise, move into a different area of HR or explore a completely new path.

    In this solo episode, Fay talks you through four possible career directions: growing in your current role, stepping up, moving sideways or stepping out. She also shares practical questions to help you decide which direction feels right for the next stage of your career.

    What You’ll Learn
    • Why meaningful career growth does not always require a promotion or a new job title
    • How growing in your current role could help you develop your expertise, confidence or strategic impact
    • Questions to consider if you would like to step up into a more senior position
    • How a sideways move could broaden your experience and support your longer-term career goals
    • Practical ways to explore stepping out of your current career path before making a major change
    • How to identify the work, strengths and experiences you would like more of in your career
    • Why choosing a general direction can help you make more deliberate decisions, even if you do not have every detail worked out yet
