In this episode, Kul explores the hidden human impact of zero-trust security in modern workplaces. While designed to protect systems, data, and IP, zero-trust approaches can unintentionally erode trust, psychological safety, and collaboration. Kul examines how constant monitoring can affect wellbeing, creativity, and belonging, and challenges leaders to find a better balance. This episode offers a human-centred perspective on security - one that protects organisations without sacrificing trust, autonomy, or the very people who make them thrive.

Kul Mahay has over 3 decades experience in the leadership space. He works with organisations and leaders to develop powerful cultures of high value, and performance which is built all around their people.

In this episode, Kul explores whether the future of work is genuinely about employee wellbeing - or simply productivity repackaged. Amid rapid change, AI adoption, and performance pressure, he challenges leaders to rethink wellbeing as a business-critical strategy rather than a “nice to have.” Drawing on research and real-world experience, he explains why psychological safety, trust, and human-centred cultures drive sustainable performance.
