Would you like to unlock the creative, imaginative and innovative potential in your team or organisation…BUT…don’t want to listen to another serious podcast which offers 7 steps, 5 habits, 3 mantras, and a hard sell in a pear tree? Then join ‘The Occupational Philosophers’, a ‘not-so-serious’ podcast with Simon Banks (middle-aged Australian surfer man, artist and published author) and John Rice (middle-aged British man with a love of curiosity and philosophy) as they chat with a ‘clowder’ (great word!) of curious cats from the fields of Comedy, Academia, Philosophy, Neuroscience, Psychology, Design, Marketing, and Business, to explore how you, your team, and your organisation, can develop your curiosity, spark your creativity, and free your imagination, so you can grow your business and your people….sounds great huh?! But don’t just take our word for it, read what our listeners think: “Worth a listen, one of them has a strange Australian accent” “They’re not philosophers, they’re idiots” “If you like business, philosophy, humour, creativity, and imagination, then have a listen - if not, then I would leave well alone” http://www.occupationalphilosophers.com

In this short, sharp inbetweener episode The Occupational Philosophers explore Humility, and it's Sith brother, Hubris...
Amongst other things, they discuss:
- How curiosity needs to be wedded to humility
- What the Greeks made of humility and why hubris was a crime
- Why you should listen to your father (Heads up Icarus!)
- What is an 'Idea Baby' and why you need to let your baby be called ugly
- How humility fuels learning and listening
- What's a 'brumble'? And why is Linkedin full of them?
- And finally, Simon and John are shocked, awed and humbled to be hosting a Top 10 (%) podcast....
The Occupational Philosophers hope you enjoy the show!
FYI: The Inbetweeners episodes are just that - smaller episodes 'in between' the longer format episodes designed to give a little kickstart to enable you to be the most curious, creative and imaginative cat you can be - and have some fun in the process
