The Conscious and Unconscious Workplace asks readers to consider their responsibility when it comes to co- creating an ethical and vibrant place to work. When many people were asked to leave their workplaces at the start of the Covid pandemic, we responded quickly – but did we respond with creativity? The book begins with our return to the workplace, and uses a variety of psychoanalytic and philosophical frameworks on which to base the author’s arguments.

Using the author’s concepts of Fragile Learning and Saturated Spaces, we explore what a truly “good” workplace looks and feels like. What makes a place of work “good”? We delve into the importance of acknowledging difficulties in the workplace, such as stress and anxiety, not to mention team resilience, visionary change management, and the importance of asking questions. The argument here is that elements of health and wellbeing that are often regarded as negative additions (such as stress, anxiety and difficult conversations) are useful, even crucial, to our sustaining creativity.

The book focuses on how we might take ownership of the next phase of workplace evolution, post-pandemic. The author adopts a questioning manner, intended to encourage a reflective stance. The reader is asked to consider notions of illuminated leadership, and the inevitability of difficult conversations in the co-authorship of our complex workplace environments.
