LiSTNR’s Fast Track: Career Conversations with Margie Hartley celebrates its 100th episode milestone today with a special look at some of the best career advice from professionals in their fields with topics ranging from working with jerks to the art of teamwork.

Hosted by executive coach, Margie Hartley, the podcast delivers career insights from CEOs and business leaders as Margie discusses the challenges preventing people in the corporate world from advancing their careers and how to overcome them.

The 100th episode highlights five of Margie’s most interesting guests and topics from the series including:

  • How to build Psychological Safety with Amy Edmondson, Professor of Leadership at Harvard Business School

  • Dealing with jerks at work with Professor Tessa West, Associate Professor of Psychology at New York University

  • The art of teamwork with John Eales, former Australian rugby union great and the most successful captain in the history of Australian rugby

  • The pursuit of perfect with Tal Ben Shahar, the positive psychology and leadership author and lecturer of the most popular course in Harvard University’s history

  • Being the coaching leader with Travis Kemp, an organisational and coaching psychologist.

In the episode, John Eales imparts this advice: “If you don’t understand how people work best, well then, you’re never going to be able to get the best out of them. And we all bring to the table different personalities, different life experiences, different objectives. But I think it’s incredibly important to know the people that you’re with and actually get to know them as people before you get to know them as positions in the team.”

Professor Tessa West said: We’re a little bit clueless in how other people see us, in fact most of us don’t know what our reputations are at work. We’re very inaccurate knowing what other people think of us so we’re not getting the feedback and if we are getting the feedback, we’re not attending to it so we’re not correcting those bad behaviours.”

Commenting on the milestone episode, Margie Hartley said: “The purpose of Fast Track was always to give people access to inspiring, motivating ideas, thinking and experience about careers and their work life. I’m so grateful to the extraordinary guests and the team at LiSTNR for making that happen. I’m also thankful to all the listeners who share and contribute. This experience at LiSTNR has been one the best of my career! One hundred episodes flew by. I hope we can continue to contribute to everyone’s working life.”
