Welcome to the Show Up! podcast.

In today's episode, Graham, Jamie, and Deri tackle a pressing issue that's making waves across the globe: the increasing polarisation of opinions within society, organisations, and teams. As elections loom in the UK, India, and the US, our hosts delve into how leaders can navigate these turbulent waters and foster a safe environment for diverse perspectives.

From the impact of social media echo chambers to the challenges of maintaining team cohesion amidst strong political views, this episode offers a deep dive into the complexities leaders face today. The conversation explores whether it's better to keep certain topics off the table or to embrace open discussions, and how the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion can guide leaders in creating more inclusive and productive teams.

Whether you're a seasoned leader or just stepping into a leadership role, this episode provides valuable insights and practical frameworks for handling the messy, complex world of team dynamics in an increasingly polarised society.
