A podcast for people who want to be clearer, more courageous and more human at work. In this series we focus on whether clearer is faster, what that means in practice and where it might fall down. With guests spanning diverse industries, sectors and organisational cultures, we explore different aspects of creating clarity – from agile culture, to messy conversations, to meetings you actually want to attend. Hosted by Kamala Katbamna, Director of Chirp.
