In this episode of The Paul Taylor Podcast, I sit down with Jason Silver, author of "Your Grass is Greener," for a masterclass in building thriving workplaces and meaningful careers. Drawing from his extensive startup experience and behavioural science background, Jason challenges conventional wisdom about leadership, revealing why hiring for character trumps skills and how excessive consensus-seeking can paralyse organisations. We explore fascinating personal experiments in mindfulness and productivity, dissect the subtle ways workplace decisions go wrong, and uncover how giving people true autonomy can transform both results and job satisfaction. Whether you're leading a team, building a company, or seeking more fulfilment in your career, this conversation offers evidence-based insights and practical strategies for creating better outcomes at work and in life.

Key Topics:


Start-up Wisdom: What works and what doesn't in growing companies


Character-Based Leadership: Why values matter more than skills


Personal Development Experiments: Learning from personal experiments and failures


Mindfulness Practices: Making meditation and journaling work for you


Workplace Decision-Making: Moving past endless meetings and consensus


Professional Autonomy: Letting people choose how they work best


Behavioural Science in the Workplace: How our brain affects workplace choices

Key Takeaways:


Choose people based on who they are, not just what they can do. Remove those who don't match your values quickly.


Don't wait for everyone to agree. Have healthy debates, make clear choices, and move forward.


Write down your goals each morning and reflect on your day each evening.


Look out for people who say they support decisions but don't follow through with actions.


Give your team freedom to choose how they complete tasks, rather than controlling every step.


Try to find information that challenges what you think you know, rather than just confirming it.


Make people and culture your top priority, not just an afterthought.
