  • Corporate Lingo That Should Be BANNED Immediately!
    2025/06/20
    Do you SPEAK Corporate?

    In this episode of The Working Week with entrepreneur Ben Askins, be sure to brace yourselves for some ‘blue sky thinking’, as Ben ‘circles back’ to his roots and asks: What 5 corporate clichés should be banned from the workplace ‘with immediate effect?’

    Because in a world where 58% of working professionals globally feel their fellow colleagues overuse work jargon - and nearly half of them saying they’d eliminate corporate speak entirely because deciphering their meanings “causes stress and slows down productivity” - just why are we still doing it? Plus, where did these phrases even originate from in the first place, how do we stop them being such a barrier and how on earth should you respond to one when it’s aimed in your direction?

    Whether you’re an employee sick and tired of “touching base” and going for “deep dives”, or you’re a boss who needs to stop referring to his employees as “family”, this one’s for you. You’ll also get Ben’s best advice for businesses, companies and careers, and a few laughs along the way!

    If that sounds like you, hit SUBSCRIBE and we’ll see you in the next episode. **Don’t forget, you can follow us wherever you get your podcasts for FREE and you’ll have access to weekly episodes 10 hours before they go live on YouTube.**

  • Has Capitalism changed FOREVER? | The Working Week Show
    2025/06/13
    Have we got it all WRONG when it comes to CONSCIOUS CAPITALISM? Can Capitalism ever be truly conscious? And - could Conscious Capitalism just be the thing to SAVE the world? Just a few of the big questions explored in this episode of The Working Week with entrepreneur Ben Askins.

    Ben is joined by Raj Sisodia, co-author of the book "Conscious Capitalism: Liberating the Heroic Spirit of Business” - the groundbreaking book that popularised the term “Conscious Capitalism" over a decade ago. But, much has changed since then so - while the book is being re-written - Raj offers Ben incredible insight into the twists and turns of how to make PROFIT for PURPOSE, how to make business with HIGHER CONSCIENCE, and why he believes “Business as Usual” is NO LONGER an option!

    Whether you’re a Founder or CEO looking to re-think your business plan, or you’re just someone with a thirst to change the world, this one’s for you. You’ll also get Ben’s best advice for businesses and companies, and a few laughs along the way!
