Break Room 10: Harrison & Chops: Youth Vs the (working) world
34:34|Chops had so much to ask 19-year old uni student, Harrison, about his generation... Which was unfair. However, he did the best he could to answer questions like: What do you think the working world is going to be like when you graduate? How motivated by money is your generation? How (face-to-face) social is your generation?Inevitably the conversation turned to Ai a few times, and it was sad to hear Harrison say that he had NO idea how Ai was going to impact the industry he's hoping to work in; and how after his 7-years at Uni (yep, 7), he's fully aware that he might not even get a job doing it, because the world will have changed so much.His worries aside, Harrison is having the time of his life at Uni, which in itself is an interesting reminder. Despite the astronomical costs of University now, it IS an amazing, liberating experience for young people (if done right). It's their first chance to be independent and in FULL control of their lives, without the pressures of day-to-day working (adult life).... Pressures that will grow and grow and which they'll spend the rest of their lives bearing. Putting all 'that' off for a few years has got to be good for the human soul and spirit, right?Please meet Harrison.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

90. Chat 90: Sara: A brilliant, multi-faceted Chartered Accountant...
40:58||Ep. 90Although Sara was always GREAT at maths, she actually pursued languages at college and Uni and then kind-of fell into accountancy, almost on a whim later on... Only to (go on and) absolutely boss it while working for some really big - and very complex and highly scrutinised - corporations.Then, when she had her kiddies and moved away from the corporate world and into smaller, self-employed 'practice' accountancy, Sara (of course) bossed that. Whilst also bossing it as a mum to three.And yet she doesn't necessarily see it that way; and like many of us, Sara is riddled with self-doubt and imposter syndrome.Please meet Sara.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

Break Room 9: Gemma & Chops: Ai Vs the creative industry with IP and copyright
33:26|There is undoubtedly A LOT to unpack here, and we barely scratched the surface with Gemma, so this is likely a first of many chats like this, with many different guests.Our main focus, given Gemma's job as an IP and Trademark attorney, was to discuss Ai's impact on OG creators... The people that shot the images to start with; that established the design trends; that wrote the informative copy; that OWN the copyright and design rights to original content that Ai mines and harvests to create something new. Because 'in theory', it does create something new. It does what designers and writers have been doing for generations - taking inspiration from others - copying others to some extend (sometimes quite literally, hence why Gemma even has a job), and homogenising it into something new.The main issue we therefore discuss with Gemma, is 'how new' is new. Because the level of 'new' and the originality of the end product is what impacts copyright, as Gemma explains eloquently.Enjoy Break Room 9.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

89. Chat 89: Luci: A bad-ass corporate VP and management consultant...
30:43||Ep. 89Luci is utterly lacking in ego; and given what her career has been - and still is - that's saying a lot.Instead, Luci is an unassuming, brilliant combination of charisma and innate capability; all of which have almost seamlessly propelled her down the amazing career path that she's had. A career that has has seen her work for some amazing names and travelled (and been based) around the world, making full use of her multi-language skills.Please meet the globetrotting, boss-bitching, Luci.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

88. Chat 88: Maddy: A power-house growth consultant and import/export specialist
29:11||Ep. 88When Maddy confirmed her 'International' role at clothing brand, Mint Velvet, she was an instant pod guest... Brilliant brand, doing brilliant things... We needed to know more!Of course Maddy goes on to name-drop a plethora of other well-known retail brands she's worked for: Tesco, Wiggle, JoJo Maman Bebe, Huel... Yep, Maddy REALLY knows her stuff; and she gets paid well, and is able/allowed to work balanced 'family' hours, because aside of being absolutely lovely, Maddy is a highly trusted pair of hands who gets the job done and delivers results.... Results that 100% change the trajectory of where a business is going - and makes that business very, VERY good money.Please meet Maddy.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

87. Chat 87: Jodie: A super-talented colour analyst, interior designer... and accountant...?!
27:48||Ep. 87Hearing that bright, vibrant, colourful, Jodie, had spent the bulk of her career in accountancy... And that she still works as one, absolutely blew our minds!... Because numbers people can't be really creative, too... Can they?Yes they can. And Jodie is. She has curated a career that not only pays her well, for a job that she's really good at; but one that simultaneously allows her to explore and expand her creative side. A side that was innate in her, but had perhaps been silenced during her early working life, as corporate drive and ambition took centre stage.Jodie is a brilliant example of people (and particularly women), fitting, but also 'not' fitting into boxes. And as their careers progressed, however successful that may have been, there's still an itch... An itch that's small and even relatively quiet at the start; but with time and circumstantial shifts, grows and grows, until it gets to a point that it just HAS to be scratched.Please meet Jodie.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

86. Chat 86: Wayne: A brilliant office design and fitting business owner
45:27||Ep. 86What is perhaps most interesting about Wayne's career, is how much of it came about because of 'chance' connections/reconnections. Chance meetings and 'bump-ins', where Wayne could have just decided to smile and walk by. Instead, he took the time to go up and chat to the people involved; ask some questions and find information out. Information that ending up putting him on whole new career and life paths.The power of human connection, you see!Combine that with just a fascinating industry that covers creative, technical, craftsmanship, sales, marketing, project management... Office design and fitting almost has it all, which makes it a real 'unicorn' industry... A secret unicorn industry (if there can be such a thing).Please meet Wayne.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

85. Chat 85: Cara: A brilliant (mega corp) Graphic Recorder and Illustrator
41:50||Ep. 85Like most of our guests on TWWork, Cara went around the houses to land where she is, and to carve out the truly unique career that she has... A career that has seen her regularly deployed at the offices of, and/or in the presence of big tech players like Google and Microsoft, and big retail players like John Lewis.She's been flown around the world and been put up in amazing hotels, in order to observe meetings where the future of it all is discussed.And as Chops jokes about in the chat, imagine (without all the legal NDAs) the book Cara could write (or draw ;-) with the information she's seen and heard over the years... The conversations she has been privy to.... But as Cara says, and with full credit to her solid Social Working career beforehand... She never draws and tells.Please meet Cara.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.
