Popular talks by Bruce Daisley

  1. Building an Energised Workplace in the Age of AI

    Technology can make us work faster, but it drains the sense of connection that drives our motivation. The key to using AI is culture – In a world where everyone has the same tools it is how you work together that sets your firm apart from the rest.

  2. The Joy of Work – Fixing our Workplace Culture

    How can teams and leaders get their mojo back to deal with the demands of modern work? Creating a firm’s identity, unlocking effort in a team and improving cohesion in the workplace is hard when people are WFH – but it can be done.

  3. Understanding Resilience – The Secrets of Inner Strength

    Why the “Resilience Orthodoxy” – that is, inner strength being present in some people but not others – is a fallacy. A look at the people of Ukraine or survivors of recent disasters is evidence that resilience is about identity, community and control.

  4. Leadership in the Hybrid Era

    Modern work culture can overwhelm high-performance individuals: when you focus on the workforce as a whole, you improve cohesion in the workforce.

Biography

About Bruce Daisley

Bruce Daisley is an author, communicator and former social media leader who is arguably the biggest name in workplace culture. He presents the award-winning podcast Eat Sleep Work Repeat, whose aim is to improve people’s work life in both the boardroom and the cubicle. Bruce has written three books on work culture, and his long and varied career gives him unique insights into how we work. His most recent role was running Twitter EMEA, where he was the most senior executive outside the US.

Bruce has written three books including The Joy of Work, which reached Number One in the Sunday Times Bestsellers list. His second, Fortitude, explores resilience and mental health in the workplace, and was named by the FT as the best business book of the year in 2022. His writing has appeared in the Washington Post, The Guardian, Harvard Business Review and Wall Street Journal (WSJ). He is also the author of Eat Sleep Work Repeat: 30 Hacks for Bringing Joy to Your Job.

Bruce Daisley launched Eat Sleep Work Repeat in 2017 and it became Apple’s most popular business podcast. Its 35,000 listeners are mainly professionals aged 25-45 in middle and senior management roles, putting it in the top 0.5% of podcasts worldwide. He takes a scientific approach to improving work culture, interviewing neurologists, psychologists and workplace experts, and believes that a happy firm is one that prioritises downtime for its staff.

Bruce has given leadership advice on how to build a connected and energised workforce, and keynotes to many firms, including Google, Red Bull, Channel 4, TikTok, J.P. Morgan, Virgin Media, Chanel, ITV, M&S, Ubisoft, Kellogg’s, Amazon, The Tony Blair Institute for Global Change, Microsoft, Burberry, NHS, HSBC, Warburtons and LEGO. His Make Work Better newsletter has 113,000 subscribers spread across Substack and LinkedIn, and he recently gave a talk on Resilience at the Royal Society of Arts (RSA).
