Connecting the Dots by The Collective

Diversity, Disruption, and Finding Meaning in the Evolving Workplace

This episode explores the intersections of leadership, personal fulfillment, and industry disruption. Our guests, Jodi Wellman and Peter Croft, bring unique perspectives on how to live with purpose, lead with impact, and embrace the evolving nature of work and wellness.

Jodi, a leadership expert, keynote speaker, and founder of Four Thousand Mondays, challenges us to rethink how we define a meaningful life. She shares her journey from the fitness industry to coaching and now to advocating for a more intentional, fulfilling existence. Peter, Chair of Europe Active’s T20 Tech Group and an expert in digital transformation, discusses the evolving role of leadership in a rapidly changing world, the importance of human-centered technology, and why businesses must disrupt themselves to stay relevant.

Together, they tackle key topics, including:

  • The evolving workplace – Why traditional corporate structures are no longer fit for purpose, and how fractional leadership, flexibility, and purpose-driven work are shaping the future.

  • Balancing meaning and vitality – Why we can’t rely solely on work for fulfillment and how leaders can foster a culture that prioritizes both professional success and personal well-being.

  • Diversity & disruption – How diverse leadership and fresh perspectives drive innovation and growth, particularly in industries still dominated by traditional hierarchies.

  • The role of sport in leadership – How early experiences in sport, coaching, and teamwork translate into leadership skills and business success.

  • Challenging workplace norms – From redefining productivity to having open conversations about gender, health, and well-being, what shifts are necessary for the next generation of leaders?
