Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 6 Episode 22 of People Soup, it's Ross McIntosh here.
P-Soupers - In this episode I chat with Tom Loncar who is an accredited coach and mentor with a background that spans the corporate sector, the public sector and roles as an economist and consultant. He is also a contributing writer on leadership to leading business and professional magazines including the Australian Financial Review, BOSS Magazine and The Psychologist, official magazine of the British Psychological Society. Tom's People Soup ingredients are curiosity, enthusiasm, and learning with a side order of backing yourself!
Tom discusses his career journey, which was spurred on by influential mentors and personal exploration. He also shares his passion for music, recounting his involvement in various bands, and how his creative pursuits have complemented his professional life. Throughout the discussion, Tom emphasizes his love for learning and the significant role of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in his coaching practice and life.
For those of you who are new to People Soup - welcome - it's great to have you here - I aim to provide you with ingredients for a better work life from behavioural science and beyond. For those of you who are regular P Soupers - thanks for tuning in - we love it that you're part of our community.
There is a transcript for each episode. There is a caveat - this transcript is largely generated by Artificial Intelligence, I have corrected many errors but I won't have captured them all! You can also find the shownotes by clicking on notes then keep scrolling for all the useful links.
My open course "Your Blueprint for Well-Being, Action & Resilience."
Please note - the planned course for June 2025 has been postponed - more news soon.
It's bringing ACT in the workplace to the public through the training I developed with Dr Paul Flaxman. I've delivered it to thousands of adults in the workplace with exceptional feedback. It's for people who are interested in navigating their working live more effectively. It will folks consider what really matters and what might be getting in the way of them being the person they'd really like to be. If you're a P-Souper or have trained with me in the past, please think about passing on this opportunity to a friend, colleague or family member. The maximum size of the cohort is 12 people - first come, first served. All the details are via this link.
