About this listen

Leaving a large organisation to work for yourself is often framed as an escape. Escape from politics, hierarchy, meetings that go nowhere. Escape into freedom. That part is real — but it’s only half the story.

For many people who step out of corporate life, the attraction is control. Control over time, priorities, and the kind of work you do. The chance to decide your own future rather than fit into someone else’s structure. But what’s less discussed is what replaces the structure you leave behind.

Liz Barclay meets Jimmy Barber – who helps organisations perform better by fixing the culture that shapes how people actually work.
