Episode notes
Between 2013 and 2016, I made a series called:
‘Conversations with the Invisible Woman’.
It was focused on communication in general. Although the topic of disputes and conflicts at work cropped up regularly! So in 2025, when I came to make the first series of ‘Investing in Conversation’, I decided to include some clips from those earlier programmes.
In this show, recorded in 2013, author, speaker and internationally renowned sound expert, Julian Treasure talks about how the majority of buildings are designed ‘by and for the eyes’ and the impact that has on:
Business,
Education and
Healthcare.
We also discuss the role of noise in dispute and conflict – the topic we pick up in the first episode of 'Investing in Conversation':
'Do You Lead With Listening?'
