In the first episode of Phoenix Out Loud, we’re joined by Sean O’Shea, founder of Craft Your Culture, to discuss how success is defined in the modern workplace and how company culture affects work ethic, employee wellbeing, and more. Sean’s business is all about helping people transform their organisations by working with them to develop their own unique high-performance culture.

According to Mental Health UK’s 2024 report, one in five workers in the UK needed to take time off work last year due to stress or burnout. The O.C tanner 2021 Global Culture Report stated a third of the UK lack confidence in their leaders. As a society, the way we work is becoming increasingly unhealthy and unsustainable, which is why Sean’s work is so important.

In this episode we’ll be exploring:

  • The definition of business culture
  • The challenges that come with multiple generations working together
  • The narratives that shape our understanding of workplace fulfilment
  • The social pressures that drive the toxic traits of workplaces
  • How technology can help improve workplace culture
