Megan is an Associate Fellow at Saïd Business School, Oxford University, and Professor of Leadership and Dialogue at Hult International Business School. She is a leading thinker on leadership and dialogue, featured in the Thinkers50 ranking of global business thinkers, and the author of Dialogue in Organizations, Mind Time, and, most recently, Speak Out, Listen Up. Her work explores how we create the conditions for transformative dialogue at work, and her latest research examines how we can foster spaciousness — the capacity to innovate, reflect, and build relationships in workplaces addicted to busyness.\nIn this conversation, we explore the impact of space, silence, attention, and an outward focus on our relationships and our experience of life.\nThis episode serves as an invitation to pause, question the busyness we’ve become entangled in, and reconsider the status quo of how we relate.\nFor more of Megan's work:\nWebsite: https://www.meganreitz.com/\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meganreitz/\n\nFor more from Mark McCartney:\nNewsletter: https://www.whatisagood.life/\nWebsite: https://www.mmcleadership.com/\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-mccartney-14b0161b4/\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whatisagoodlife\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/markcmccartney\n00:00 How do I encounter the world?\n04:00 Flow amongst people\n07:00 How our gestures affect others\n11:45 The labels, assumptions, and roles that create distance\n17:13 The energy drain of societal expectations\n23:00 Allowing, inquiry, and meta awareness\n26:20 Creating the space we require\n33:45 How do we see the world?\n37:00 Navigating pauses and big questions\n44:00 How strange it has become to pause\n47:30 Our focus moving from ourselves\n53:30 Experiencing periods without an agenda\n57:00 Summary and what is a good life for Megan?\nKeywords: Meaning of Life Interviews | meaning of life conversations |...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/bmT8FMFAsdpL8YpCcl1-OrgjJf3IhVZ_KJftDu8Wgy8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM3NDg2LzE2NzI4/MzUxMDgtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
