Tempus Fugit meaning "Time flees". More time than I’d intended has passed since the end of Season One of Life at the Sharp End and that great philosopher, Freddie Mercury, told us that “Time waits for nobody.”
Life at the Sharp End set out to help people who want to be a part of safe, respectful and high-performing workplace cultures.
Whether you’re new to the podcast or a long-time listener, let’s take some time together to reflect on some lessons we've learnt so far for leadership and workplace culture, and look forward to what’s still to come on Life at the Sharp End.
