The Tree That Bends by Professor Ross White

People Soup

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 6 Episode 5 of People Soup it's Ross McIntosh here.

You've just heard Professor Ross White reading the preface to his book - "The Tree That Bends". In this episode we continue our chat and Ross' People Soup ingredients are thriving, psychological flexibility, tree wisdom, relentlessness, resetting and cultural architects. You'll hear Ross response to my review and how Hooke's Law from our A Level physics lesson can be applied to humans at work. I'm also on a personal mission to see if we can get the #BeMoreTree trending.

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.
