A People Shift podcast

Move Slow and Fix Things

A podcast about work, wellbeing, connection and the bigger questions we face together, for people who’d rather get it right than get it fast.

Reflections and conversations · Hosted by James Carrier · Coming soon

The idea

The opposite of move fast and break things

“Move fast and break things” became the motto of a generation. This podcast is about the opposite: slowing down enough to understand what’s really going on, then fixing things properly, in our work, our organisations and our lives.

Move slow and fix things.

James Carrier

I run People Shift, based in Edinburgh. Before that I was a chartered accountant, and a career in financial services took me across the UK and Europe.

I also help to organise People Peeps, an Edinburgh learning community for organisation and people development, and some of the conversations on the show will be with the People Peeps community.
