In this enlightening and highly practical episode Lee is joined by PhD Neuroscientist and Flow Expert - Simon McKenzie-Nickson to discuss how we can engineer flow to emerge more often in our personal and professional lives. We cover the four phases of flow, strategies for accessing flow, and how to apply principles of flow to real-life leadership challenges.

Lee's guest Kate Connors is a registered psychologist with extensive experience helping people back to work after significant mental health challenges. She is a Board Director at the Emergency Services Foundation (ESF), and Chair ESF's Mental Health Advisory Group (MHAG).

Lee first met Kate in 2010 years ago when seeking expertise while desigining a series of workshops for senior leaders struggling with how to effectively lead staff experiencing significant mental health challenges. At the time Kate was CEO of an organisation delivering best in class workplace psychological services including employee assistance, critical incident and organisational development services.

This conversation explores the question - How can I balance my duty of care and commitment to being a compassionate, responsible leader with the pressure to deliver results, when I have team members facing significant mental health challenges?

We hope you enjoy it!
