About the Podcast

The IR Guru Podcast - Industrial Relations
Inside the world of Industrial Relations - interviews with people from Unions, Business and Policy
Inside the world of Industrial Relations, Employee Relations and Labor Relations.

Bringing you insight and knowledge through Interviews with key opinion formers from unions, business, policy makers, politicians and those who were in the room or had an ear at the door.

Always wondered:
What happened behind the scenes of a major workplace conflict?
How you might approach a particular Industrial Relations or Employee Relations challenge in your own job?
What is really going on in a current or recent dispute or workplace conflict?
What policy makers and politicians might be planning in terms of legislative changes?
How management/union relationships work, why they sometimes don’t, and what can be done differently?

Whilst we can't promise to answer all of these questions in one go, we will certainly cover some of them in each episode.

Join presenters Andy Cook and Nick Dalton as they meet the leading lights of Industrial Relations, Employee Relations and Labor Relations to hear about what they did, how they did it and what they learned. And what their current thinking is.

We will also look at present day disputes and issues through talking to those involved to get to the heart of whats going on.
