S7 E13: Rebecca Sutherns - Imagination and Curiosity

Last poddy of the year just for you! Harv wanted to learn the difference between Imagination and Curiosity. Find out here!

S7 E8: Stu Pearce - Why inclusion is important, even in the armed forces.

Why would inclusion matter in the world of the armed forces. That’s what I wanted to dig into with Stu Pearce, Director of People and Culture at Royal New Zealand Air Force. And we did. Plus, we covered the world of body building as a bonus. This was a joy for me looking into two worlds I know so little about! *Disclaimer from Stu Pearce: "The views and opinions expressed are my own and don’t necessarily represent those of the NZDF".
