About The Eight Mindsets podcast:

The Eight Mindsets is brought to you by Nicole Rose and Jason Meyer of Training Hats and the Eight Mindsets initiative.  Based on their conversations with the global leaders in the Eight Mindsets Cohort, in each episode:

• Jason and Nicole consider a different event in the global news or culture and look for the moments and lessons that can make leaders in organizations more effective.


• We include three learning moments and three action items for you to take back to your organisation and your life.


• We end with their pick of the Compliance Anthem of the Week.

Each week we incorporate Compliance, Ethics, Training , HR, Risk, Management, Leadership, Corporate Culture, Corporate Responsibility, Conduct, Code of Conduct and Training and Education methods in our discussions

About this Episode:

This is Part 4 of 4 of different aspects of Speaking Up. This time we are focusing on Corporations and Public policy making - the organization as the speaker, speaking up about political concerns and new laws. The question is not whether a worker or whistleblower sees something and says something -- it’s about the times, in the name of company culture or just doing the right thing, that the organization itself speaks up publicly.

This episode’s world event:

This episode’s world event is Corporate Reaction to Voter Suppression.

Focus Mindsets this episode:

The Eight Mindsets range from thinking like an advertiser to thinking like a storyteller. But the overriding mindset that we always focus on is the Mindset of a learner - to  think like your audience and not like a compliance, risk or HR expert. Focus mindsets this episode: Learner and Storyteller (with a particular focus on how to tell the story).
