Quick Win: Why you should stop bringing your 'whole self' to work

There’s a popular belief today that it’s healthy and empowering to bring your 'whole self' to work. But what if we’ve taken it too far?

Shelley Johnson is a renowned leadership coach, columnist for The Age and Sydney Morning Herald and the host of top-ranking podcast This Is Work.

We sat down to discuss a potentially controversial view on ‘bringing your whole self to work’ and the impact of oversharing.

Shelley and I share:

-         What to do instead of oversharing at work to have a positive impact

-         Why "bringing your whole self to work" might not be the best idea and what you should do instead
