In this episode, we’re expanding further into a topic we covered last season that has shown no signs of going away: the great skill shortage.  

Whether it’s filling a role or finding people with the right skills, the skills shortage continues to be one of the biggest pain points for Australian businesses. 

In fact, a recent CEO survey found the No. 1 problem facing CEOs in Australia is ensuring their companies have the right skill set. This is driving a more significant focus on upskilling, technology, and specialist outsourcing to fill the gaps.  

With the skill shortage set to be one of this decade’s biggest business disruptors, is a simple pivot in priorities enough? And what role does leadership play in finding (and retaining) the right people? 

To weigh in on this discussion, our host Dom Garfi is joined by: 

Sales Lead and Tech Expert Venu Metla from HPE Aruba Networking 
People and Performance Expert Ben Pawson

Behavioral Nudges: Prof. Hengchen Dai Reveals How Small Changes Transform Organizations

We are delighted to welcome Prof. Mijeong Kwon, Assistant Professor of Management at the Denver Business School, University of Colorado Denver.

In this episode, Prof. Mijeong Kwon will be sharing valuable insights from her research, “Moral Burdens at Work: The Dilemma of Doing What You Love.”

For over 50 years, business research and education have highlighted the positive impact of intrinsic motivation. The idea of loving your work has become ubiquitous, appearing in everything from inspiring graduation speeches to the tweets of prominent CEOs. 

Dr. Mijeong Kwon's research delves into whether this widespread valuation of intrinsic motivation might have an unintended dark side for employees' value judgments about themselves and others. In her work, Dr. Kwon argues that when intrinsic motivation is valued in employees' social contexts, it becomes associated with positive values and is moralized. Once moralized, intrinsic motivation transforms into a source of value judgments. Through field surveys and a mix of online and lab experiments, Dr. Kwon explores how the moralization of intrinsic motivation can lead to potentially negative impacts on employees' perceptions and behaviors in the workplace. Her areas of expertise include Motivation, Morality, and Ethics. She was awarded the 2021 LKS Fellow at the Lee Kong Chian School of Business, Singapore Management University. 

Prof. Kwon earned her PhD in Management & Organizations from the University of Michigan and her MS in Management from Yonsei University, Korea.
