In this episode of LEAP Listens, Sara and Roger are joined by organisational anthropologist Dr Alex Gapud to explore what organisations can learn when they look beyond surveys, spreadsheets and engagement scores. Drawing on his work studying workplace cultures from the inside, Alex explains why understanding people's lived experiences is essential for building authentic employee value propositions that employees genuinely recognise and trust.

The conversation explores the gap between what organisations think employees value and what people actually experience day to day. Alex shares why qualitative research can uncover insights that numbers alone often miss, and why the most effective EVPs are built around real human stories rather than assumptions made in the boardroom.

In this episode of LEAP Listens, Sara and Roger are joined by internationally recognised HR thinker and transformation expert Perry Timms to explore the idea of the 'polymorphic organisation' a business designed to adapt, shift and evolve as the world around it changes. Drawing on decades of experience across HR, organisational design and change, Perry explains why companies need to balance the demands of today with the realities of tomorrow, and why rigid structures are no longer enough.

From agile working and self-managed teams to future skills, leadership and employer brand, the conversation explores how organisations can become more adaptive without losing stability.
