Making Work Not Suck – Opportunities for Leaders - Live Podcast Recording with Adam Grant
About this episode
In this episode, Jason and Joelle interview Adam Grant about improving workplace mental health and the role of leaders in creating supportive work environments.
In this live Psych Health and Safety Podcast recording from PHSCON 2025, Jason and Joelle interview world-renowned organisational psychologist Adam Grant to unpack what truly drives workplace mental health and why “wellbeing benefits” alone won’t fix broken systems. Together, they explore the power of good work design, the real causes of burnout, how toxic cultures take hold, and what leaders can do to create work that helps people thrive (without burning them out). Practical, evidence-backed, and full of sharp insights for anyone serious about psychosocial safety at work.
