Episode 11 - Emotion at Work in Clean Language

Fair warning: this language isn't really clean ;) Ever since I heard about 'clean language' I was not convinced it can be a thing.  Then I studied linguistics and decided it most definitely was not a thing, in fact, it was a load of rubbish.  However, as opposed to ignoring and dismissing it I wanted to explore it.  So I got in touch with the guest of this podcast episode, Judy Rees.  We had a chat on Linked In where I said 'I think this is bunkum' and we arranged a call to discuss more.  I enjoyed that initial chat so much I wanted to get Judy on to the podcast and here she is.  So, we discuss: Clean Language is not a thing - but there are degrees of cleanliness  There are some peer-reviewed academic and popular research to suggest clean language has a place (some links below) That the principles of clean language are set around a core set of questions with a fairly rigid structure and format which you interchange with another person or peoples language (again more links below) I really enjoyed this chat and once again played with the format and asked Judy to use some 'clean language' questions on me.  Enjoy Links and resources David Grove's book from the world of therapy (where his studies began) https://www.amazon.co.uk/Conversations-Therapy-Problems-Solutions-Professional/dp/0393701557/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1508328796&sr=8-1&keywords=david+grove Judy Rees book https://www.amazon.co.uk/Clean-Language-Revealing-Metaphors-Opening/dp/1845901258 Judy Rees website http://judyrees.co.uk/ An example of using clean language as a methodology in Qualitative Research http://epubs.surrey.ac.uk/807943/1/BJM%20Clean%20Language%20pre-peer%20review%20version%20for%20open%20access.pdf Link to Nancy Kline website http://www.timetothink.com/thinking-environment/the-ten-components/ Clean Approaches for Coaches https://www.amazon.co.uk/Clean-Approaches-Coaches-Conditions-Modelling/dp/095748660X From Contempt to Curiosity https://www.amazon.co.uk/Contempt-Curiosity-Conditions-Collaborate-ModellingTM-ebook/dp/B00LXOLICG/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1508333390&sr=1-1&keywords=from+contempt+to+curiosity   More from Judy: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/judyrees/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/judyrees   Follow us on Instagram for exclusive Podcast updates! https://www.instagram.com/emotionatworkpodcast/   Learn more about Emotion at Work: https://www.emotionatwork.co.uk   Connect with Phil: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-willcox-02013425/
