If anyone does the slightest bit of digging 177 00:08:03,693 --> 00:08:05,293 Speaker 2: on that, they can find out. But where do you. 178 00:08:05,293 --> 00:08:07,133 Speaker 3: Get into you are fantasis? Where do you get into 179 00:08:07,133 --> 00:08:08,893 Speaker 3: a position where you start saying things that are so 180 00:08:09,013 --> 00:08:13,733 Speaker 3: ridiculously untrue? But CVS in general, I know this isn't 181 00:08:13,733 --> 00:08:17,573 Speaker 3: a CV issue with him. But cvs are qualifications And 182 00:08:17,653 --> 00:08:19,413 Speaker 3: in general, have you lied on a CDV? 183 00:08:19,773 --> 00:08:20,653 Speaker 2: Because and how much? 184 00:08:21,053 --> 00:08:24,133 Speaker 3: Because I would say that most people kind of massage 185 00:08:26,053 --> 00:08:29,733 Speaker 3: a CV definitely, So how much lying on a CV 186 00:08:30,133 --> 00:08:33,533 Speaker 3: is okay? And are you an idiot if you don't 187 00:08:34,053 --> 00:08:39,653 Speaker 3: sort of just massage it from say I worked here 188 00:08:40,173 --> 00:08:45,333 Speaker 3: for three years too. I was an exemplary employee, much 189 00:08:45,413 --> 00:08:47,852 Speaker 3: loved by my fellow workers, and made a real difference 190 00:08:47,892 --> 00:08:49,213 Speaker 3: at this company for three years. 191 00:08:49,293 --> 00:08:52,772 Speaker 2: Team member attention to detail is top notch. But you're right, 192 00:08:52,813 --> 00:08:54,253 Speaker 2: I mean any sort of. 193 00:08:54,413 --> 00:08:56,733 Speaker 3: Have any weakness is working too hard. 194 00:08:56,813 --> 00:08:59,973 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a perfectionist, but you're right. I mean, when 195 00:08:59,973 --> 00:09:02,893 Speaker 2: it comes to a CVN you've got to present what 196 00:09:02,933 --> 00:09:05,052 Speaker 2: you achieved at your previous job, and you are part 197 00:09:05,093 --> 00:09:06,852 Speaker 2: of a team that achieved that. You don't mention the 198 00:09:06,892 --> 00:09:09,612 Speaker 2: team members, you say and you CV. Surely most people 199 00:09:09,653 --> 00:09:12,253 Speaker 2: would do this. So I was a critical part of 200 00:09:12,333 --> 00:09:14,693 Speaker 2: achieving this particular goal. And then you set out what 201 00:09:14,693 --> 00:09:17,093 Speaker 2: that goal was. You don't just say you are a limming. 202 00:09:17,732 --> 00:09:20,252 Speaker 2: You were just one of twenty people involved in this project. 203 00:09:20,413 --> 00:09:23,413 Speaker 2: You claim ownership of that project. It was only got 204 00:09:23,453 --> 00:09:26,173 Speaker 2: across the line because of what I brought to that situation. 205 00:09:26,693 --> 00:09:30,453 Speaker 3: Yeah, and say a secondary question on e one hundred 206 00:09:30,453 --> 00:09:33,053 Speaker 3: and eighty ten eighty. If you're an employer and you 207 00:09:33,173 --> 00:09:36,173 Speaker 3: find out that your employee has lied on their CV, 208 00:09:36,653 --> 00:09:38,773 Speaker 3: how do you feel about it? Is that immediate dismissal? 209 00:09:39,252 --> 00:09:41,372 Speaker 3: But what if they have lied on their CV and 210 00:09:41,413 --> 00:09:44,613 Speaker 3: they've ended up being a great employee anyway, and so 211 00:09:45,173 --> 00:09:47,333 Speaker 3: what they did to get over the hurdle for you 212 00:09:47,372 --> 00:09:49,093 Speaker 3: to hire them has ended up being a boon for 213 00:09:49,132 --> 00:09:51,852 Speaker 3: both of you. Then do you care? Do you care 214 00:09:51,892 --> 00:09:53,653 Speaker 3: if they've said they've got a doctorate from Yale and 215 00:09:53,693 --> 00:09:56,093 Speaker 3: it turns out that they're excellent on the floor of 216 00:09:56,413 --> 00:09:57,573 Speaker 3: nol Leaming or whatever you're. 217 00:09:57,453 --> 00:09:59,612 Speaker 2: Working out, Oh, eight, one hundred and eighty ten eighty. 218 00:09:59,653 --> 00:10:03,653 Speaker 2: I would hope on that question most employers, unless the 219 00:10:03,773 --> 00:10:08,333 Speaker 2: lie was incredibly far featured or even damaging to the company, 220 00:10:08,413 --> 00:10:11,653 Speaker 2: would you care? Because half the hassle of trying to 221 00:10:11,773 --> 00:10:14,213 Speaker 2: find a good worker is trying to find a good worker. 222 00:10:14,252 --> 00:10:16,893 Speaker 2: You can go through all the pilava of looking at 223 00:10:16,892 --> 00:10:19,252 Speaker 2: a CV and doing multiple interviews and a lot of 224 00:10:19,252 --> 00:10:22,132 Speaker 2: people still get duds. So if you've got someone who's 225 00:10:22,453 --> 00:10:24,412 Speaker 2: told a few porky's on their CV, but it turns 226 00:10:24,453 --> 00:10:27,093 Speaker 2: out to be an excellent worker. Why would you give 227 00:10:27,093 --> 00:10:28,493 Speaker 2: a stuff? Surely you'd look past that. 228 00:10:28,573 --> 00:10:31,173 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty What makes 229 00:10:31,213 --> 00:10:34,173 Speaker 3: a good CV if you're writing a CV, as a 230 00:10:34,173 --> 00:10:40,573 Speaker 3: good CV include not necessarily lying, but some stretching of 231 00:10:40,612 --> 00:10:44,013 Speaker 3: the truth. And are you an idiot if you tell 232 00:10:44,053 --> 00:10:45,413 Speaker 3: the full truth on your CV? 233 00:10:45,573 --> 00:10:47,892 Speaker 2: Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 234 00:10:47,933 --> 00:10:50,493 Speaker 2: to call. It is sixteen past one. 235 00:10:51,492 --> 00:10:54,973 Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends, and 236 00:10:55,252 --> 00:10:59,693 Speaker 1: everything in between. Matt Heathan Taylor Adams. Afternoons used talks. 237 00:10:59,573 --> 00:11:04,013 Speaker 2: Be very good afternoons. You we're talking about cvs. Have 238 00:11:04,093 --> 00:11:06,653 Speaker 2: you ever embellished on your CV? Is that the normal 239 00:11:06,693 --> 00:11:09,453 Speaker 2: thing to do? You talk up your experiences that you've 240 00:11:09,492 --> 00:11:12,173 Speaker 2: had in the past to make you stand out. It's 241 00:11:12,213 --> 00:11:14,693 Speaker 2: on the back of a gentleman who has resigned from 242 00:11:14,813 --> 00:11:17,813 Speaker 2: all other jobs that he's got after he was found 243 00:11:17,813 --> 00:11:19,413 Speaker 2: out to have made a bit of a pulky about 244 00:11:19,413 --> 00:11:20,732 Speaker 2: a doctorate he got at Yale. 245 00:11:20,892 --> 00:11:23,333 Speaker 3: As this lying, says Robert. As I approached my sixties 246 00:11:23,333 --> 00:11:25,893 Speaker 3: and beyond, I started leaving things out of my CV 247 00:11:25,973 --> 00:11:27,773 Speaker 3: and for fear that they'd think I'm an old bloke. 248 00:11:28,413 --> 00:11:30,573 Speaker 3: That's an interesting one. So you've got some great things 249 00:11:30,573 --> 00:11:33,333 Speaker 3: on your CV, but there's just slightly too many of 250 00:11:33,372 --> 00:11:37,132 Speaker 3: them in the years add up. Yeah, I would say 251 00:11:37,173 --> 00:11:40,533 Speaker 3: that anyone that's thinking of not employing someone because they're 252 00:11:40,892 --> 00:11:43,973 Speaker 3: in their late fifties or sixties as an idiot. Yeah, 253 00:11:44,012 --> 00:11:46,173 Speaker 3: I agree, because you're going to get some of your 254 00:11:46,173 --> 00:11:50,533 Speaker 3: best employees around that age exactly, experience, you know, dedication, 255 00:11:50,612 --> 00:11:52,053 Speaker 3: all those kind of things come with age. 256 00:11:52,093 --> 00:11:54,053 Speaker 2: Yep, one hundred percent. Stephanie, how are you. 257 00:11:55,612 --> 00:11:55,732 Speaker 6: Hi? 258 00:11:55,892 --> 00:11:56,132 Speaker 7: Good? 259 00:11:57,252 --> 00:12:00,252 Speaker 2: And what's your view on on CVS and embellishing or 260 00:12:00,252 --> 00:12:02,412 Speaker 2: potentially even telling a few white lives. 261 00:12:04,213 --> 00:12:10,012 Speaker 7: No, I've had a care and so I've employed a 262 00:12:10,012 --> 00:12:13,933 Speaker 7: lot of people and built a lot of teams. And 263 00:12:14,773 --> 00:12:17,333 Speaker 7: the most important thing I think you can have in 264 00:12:17,413 --> 00:12:20,612 Speaker 7: your work environment is trust. It's a value that you 265 00:12:20,732 --> 00:12:23,213 Speaker 7: have to have in order to build a solid team. 266 00:12:23,413 --> 00:12:26,573 Speaker 7: And you know and enjoy and appreciate each other and 267 00:12:26,612 --> 00:12:31,453 Speaker 7: trust each other and hard work, attitude and trust are 268 00:12:31,492 --> 00:12:36,573 Speaker 7: really important. So I think that lying isn't a good value. 269 00:12:36,892 --> 00:12:40,413 Speaker 7: It's against our values, and it was certainly against things 270 00:12:40,732 --> 00:12:44,933 Speaker 7: that I have all my working life, and I actually 271 00:12:45,012 --> 00:12:49,053 Speaker 7: ended up unfortunately hiring a couple of people have had 272 00:12:49,132 --> 00:12:53,132 Speaker 7: lied and then by downate it the most sneaky damn 273 00:12:53,252 --> 00:12:56,933 Speaker 7: things to other people and their teams and go far 274 00:12:57,093 --> 00:13:02,573 Speaker 7: for them. Because they're live, they're not putting out you 275 00:13:02,693 --> 00:13:06,813 Speaker 7: can't trust them. So it's a big deal when your 276 00:13:06,892 --> 00:13:12,852 Speaker 7: values don't line was the integrity of the organization and 277 00:13:13,333 --> 00:13:14,132 Speaker 7: the team working. 278 00:13:15,413 --> 00:13:18,893 Speaker 3: Is it possible though, that they desperately want and need 279 00:13:19,132 --> 00:13:23,813 Speaker 3: this job and so the CV and maybe it's something 280 00:13:24,252 --> 00:13:27,173 Speaker 3: like I don't know, they slightly upgrade the job title 281 00:13:27,252 --> 00:13:31,532 Speaker 3: that had at another place from from to or they 282 00:13:32,413 --> 00:13:36,132 Speaker 3: I don't know, they sort of changed the dates a 283 00:13:36,173 --> 00:13:42,492 Speaker 3: little bit, or you know, they stretched slightly the credentials. 284 00:13:43,533 --> 00:13:47,493 Speaker 2: You know, Like, is that really that bad? 285 00:13:49,892 --> 00:13:52,292 Speaker 7: Well, I think it is because it's not telling the truth. 286 00:13:52,612 --> 00:13:53,013 Speaker 4: I thought. 287 00:13:53,132 --> 00:13:55,813 Speaker 7: You know, someone earlier just said something like, you know 288 00:13:56,213 --> 00:13:58,453 Speaker 7: you can say in your TV and yours are part 289 00:13:58,533 --> 00:14:00,932 Speaker 7: of that team. If you just think I was a 290 00:14:00,973 --> 00:14:06,052 Speaker 7: part of that team, that we achieved it in my 291 00:14:06,333 --> 00:14:11,172 Speaker 7: heart in that team's development or achievements or whatever, I 292 00:14:11,612 --> 00:14:14,132 Speaker 7: do this and this and that and that. I think 293 00:14:14,213 --> 00:14:17,093 Speaker 7: that's really powerful. And when you're interviewing someone to FORTI, 294 00:14:17,093 --> 00:14:20,453 Speaker 7: you'll follow up on that, and then a good person 295 00:14:20,493 --> 00:14:26,533 Speaker 7: who's interviewing will certainly pursue and actually uncover mostly whether 296 00:14:26,653 --> 00:14:30,052 Speaker 7: or not people are all actually they should do. 297 00:14:31,173 --> 00:14:36,213 Speaker 2: And that's the point, Stephanie, isn't it? Sorry? You carry on? Sorry? 298 00:14:36,253 --> 00:14:36,893 Speaker 2: Say that part again? 299 00:14:38,293 --> 00:14:40,412 Speaker 7: You've got I mean, if you've got a company you're 300 00:14:40,453 --> 00:14:43,893 Speaker 7: trying to run with integrity, look after your customers, hopefully 301 00:14:43,973 --> 00:14:47,093 Speaker 7: make a positive bottom line, you have to have people 302 00:14:47,173 --> 00:14:48,693 Speaker 7: you can trust who are in your team. 303 00:14:49,093 --> 00:14:51,933 Speaker 2: Yeah, But to your point about getting to the interview stage, 304 00:14:51,973 --> 00:14:54,373 Speaker 2: because that's where I sit with people who embellish or 305 00:14:54,413 --> 00:14:56,813 Speaker 2: maybe look make themselves look a bit better than they 306 00:14:56,853 --> 00:14:59,213 Speaker 2: actually are at their previous position. To me, that is 307 00:14:59,293 --> 00:15:01,933 Speaker 2: to get to the interview stage. And at that point 308 00:15:02,133 --> 00:15:04,412 Speaker 2: it's up to the interviewer to get a measure of 309 00:15:04,493 --> 00:15:06,933 Speaker 2: the person that they are talking to and to ask 310 00:15:07,013 --> 00:15:08,813 Speaker 2: those questions, to try and break down some of those 311 00:15:08,853 --> 00:15:11,292 Speaker 2: things that they might have questions over. So I've got 312 00:15:11,373 --> 00:15:14,052 Speaker 2: no problem with people embellishing and making themselves look like 313 00:15:14,133 --> 00:15:18,493 Speaker 2: a fantastic candidate, but by maybe tweaking a few of 314 00:15:18,693 --> 00:15:20,853 Speaker 2: their skills to get to that stage and then at 315 00:15:20,893 --> 00:15:22,493 Speaker 2: that point that's on the employer, isn't it. 316 00:15:24,733 --> 00:15:27,293 Speaker 7: Well, no, I just agree because I mean a lie, 317 00:15:27,373 --> 00:15:30,292 Speaker 7: a lie, you know you're not you're not telling the truth. 318 00:15:30,413 --> 00:15:33,253 Speaker 7: And I can remember someone once years and years ago, 319 00:15:33,373 --> 00:15:36,733 Speaker 7: they they applied for a job and they knew that 320 00:15:36,813 --> 00:15:38,893 Speaker 7: lots of people are the other people were, and they 321 00:15:40,213 --> 00:15:46,413 Speaker 7: used a particular calligraphy on the on the application m hm. 322 00:15:46,973 --> 00:15:49,613 Speaker 7: And I mean they because you get lots and lots 323 00:15:49,653 --> 00:15:55,573 Speaker 7: of people submitting in there having their cvs. But this 324 00:15:55,773 --> 00:15:59,973 Speaker 7: person drew attention to themselves for doing something different and 325 00:16:01,173 --> 00:16:03,733 Speaker 7: I obviously did it themselves. And so yes, that came 326 00:16:03,773 --> 00:16:06,493 Speaker 7: to it in the pile and came up to interview. 327 00:16:06,693 --> 00:16:10,133 Speaker 7: And whilst the person doesn't have probably a lot of 328 00:16:10,213 --> 00:16:13,493 Speaker 7: us experienced some of the others. I took that as 329 00:16:13,573 --> 00:16:18,693 Speaker 7: being really good because they had initiative and they didn't lie. 330 00:16:19,213 --> 00:16:22,053 Speaker 7: That's what they did. They consequently used that to advance 331 00:16:22,253 --> 00:16:26,133 Speaker 7: several different ways. So no, I'm not being on liars 332 00:16:26,213 --> 00:16:29,893 Speaker 7: because they turn out to be self serving in a team. 333 00:16:30,973 --> 00:16:34,693 Speaker 7: And also the company doesn't benefit because they can they 334 00:16:34,773 --> 00:16:39,373 Speaker 7: don't serve the customers to the best of their efforts 335 00:16:39,413 --> 00:16:43,693 Speaker 7: all the time. They put themselves. First, I don't approve 336 00:16:43,773 --> 00:16:46,613 Speaker 7: of lying, I really don't. I think it's just sets 337 00:16:46,613 --> 00:16:50,093 Speaker 7: the business if everyone on the team really knows they 338 00:16:50,133 --> 00:16:53,013 Speaker 7: can trust it.

Back to matt Ethan Tyler Adams. 483 00:23:39,653 --> 00:23:41,613 Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Rayleen, and we're talking about a 484 00:23:41,693 --> 00:23:45,133 Speaker 2: story today. New Justice appointee Farley Andrew Larsa says he's 485 00:23:45,173 --> 00:23:49,733 Speaker 2: decided to resign from everything after an investigation exposed flaws 486 00:23:49,813 --> 00:23:50,453 Speaker 2: in his CV. 487 00:23:50,693 --> 00:23:50,733 Speaker 4: So. 488 00:23:50,893 --> 00:23:52,853 Speaker 2: The big one was a speech he made to the 489 00:23:52,973 --> 00:23:56,133 Speaker 2: University of Texas that he had completed a jurist doctor 490 00:23:56,173 --> 00:23:59,813 Speaker 2: a law degree at Lale at Yale, and after an 491 00:23:59,853 --> 00:24:02,133 Speaker 2: investigation he admitted that wasn't true. He said, I quote, 492 00:24:02,173 --> 00:24:04,133 Speaker 2: the agree doesn't exist. What I meant by that as 493 00:24:04,173 --> 00:24:06,333 Speaker 2: I had studied at Yale. It was an online course 494 00:24:06,373 --> 00:24:08,893 Speaker 2: on governance. But I do not have a jd at Yale, 495 00:24:09,493 --> 00:24:12,453 Speaker 2: so that is very different. And we've taken a step 496 00:24:12,733 --> 00:24:15,973 Speaker 2: backwards to talking about emballishing on your CV. Clearly that 497 00:24:16,213 --> 00:24:19,053 Speaker 2: is an outright lie about a degree that that person 498 00:24:19,213 --> 00:24:21,613 Speaker 2: did not have. But we're talking about embellishing or making 499 00:24:21,653 --> 00:24:23,453 Speaker 2: yourself look better on a CV. 500 00:24:23,933 --> 00:24:26,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean just little things like you're part of 501 00:24:26,733 --> 00:24:28,733 Speaker 3: a team, but then you just put in might call 502 00:24:28,773 --> 00:24:32,133 Speaker 3: it my team, or you claim you lead the team, 503 00:24:32,213 --> 00:24:32,773 Speaker 3: but you're part of. 504 00:24:32,773 --> 00:24:34,052 Speaker 2: A successful team exactly. 505 00:24:34,133 --> 00:24:37,933 Speaker 3: I mean that's a classic CV embellishment, or you know, 506 00:24:38,093 --> 00:24:41,653 Speaker 3: claiming skills you don't have. I mean, there's a lot 507 00:24:41,733 --> 00:24:44,253 Speaker 3: of things you could do that are a long way 508 00:24:44,373 --> 00:24:47,933 Speaker 3: from making up a doctorate from Yale. Yeah, there's a 509 00:24:48,013 --> 00:24:48,973 Speaker 3: long way back, you know. 510 00:24:49,333 --> 00:24:52,853 Speaker 2: But like saying I've got attention great attention to detail, 511 00:24:53,053 --> 00:24:55,813 Speaker 2: now that highly likely is not true all of the time. 512 00:24:55,893 --> 00:24:57,933 Speaker 2: There might be sometimes where you're pretty good at the 513 00:24:58,213 --> 00:25:00,573 Speaker 2: smaller things, but I'd say most people put that on 514 00:25:00,653 --> 00:25:03,013 Speaker 2: their CV, and it's just the reality. There's a lot 515 00:25:03,013 --> 00:25:05,373 Speaker 2: of people who are not great at attention to detail. 516 00:25:05,413 --> 00:25:06,893 Speaker 2: But of course you put it there because you want 517 00:25:06,933 --> 00:25:08,253 Speaker 2: to put your best foot forwar. 518 00:25:08,813 --> 00:25:12,533 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean that's probably like a step too far. 519 00:25:12,773 --> 00:25:14,613 Speaker 3: Maybe I'm just trying to find the limit is to say, 520 00:25:15,453 --> 00:25:18,373 Speaker 3: claim a title if you're a director, and use if 521 00:25:18,373 --> 00:25:21,093 Speaker 3: you're a manager and you call yourself director, yeah, you know, 522 00:25:21,853 --> 00:25:25,292 Speaker 3: or you're a slightly upgrading yourself. 523 00:25:25,493 --> 00:25:27,573 Speaker 2: Yeah.

But to me, Jeremy, there's a 689 00:33:40,533 --> 00:33:43,893 Speaker 2: spectrum here. You might disagree about the and let's call 690 00:33:43,973 --> 00:33:46,573 Speaker 2: them embellishments. And I think, you know, I just need 691 00:33:46,653 --> 00:33:48,293 Speaker 2: to clarify that because there's a lot of people coming 692 00:33:48,333 --> 00:33:50,733 Speaker 2: through on the text machine saying no, never lie. But 693 00:33:50,853 --> 00:33:53,453 Speaker 2: I think there's a difference there between a pathological liar 694 00:33:53,453 --> 00:33:55,453 Speaker 2: who's clearly got some sort of mental illness that would 695 00:33:55,453 --> 00:33:58,373 Speaker 2: do the things you're talking about, versus someone saying that 696 00:33:58,493 --> 00:34:00,813 Speaker 2: they were a greater part of a team and a 697 00:34:00,933 --> 00:34:03,093 Speaker 2: previous job to make themselves look a bit better. 698 00:34:04,453 --> 00:34:06,693 Speaker 12: Yeah, but it's what Matt just said previously. You know, 699 00:34:06,813 --> 00:34:09,212 Speaker 12: he said you'd do everything and any thing for the 700 00:34:09,253 --> 00:34:12,013 Speaker 12: sake of his family. You know, Well, if it's anything 701 00:34:12,093 --> 00:34:15,173 Speaker 12: and everything in your embellishing cv possibly to get greater 702 00:34:15,293 --> 00:34:18,773 Speaker 12: renumeration or greater title in the job, which would lead 703 00:34:18,773 --> 00:34:22,253 Speaker 12: to a better position remuneration. Yeah, that's one point, a 704 00:34:22,293 --> 00:34:25,453 Speaker 12: su guest, which were saying. But to actually put like 705 00:34:25,653 --> 00:34:28,213 Speaker 12: if you said stolen valor medals upon your chest for 706 00:34:28,333 --> 00:34:30,733 Speaker 12: conflicts that you've been to, or a massive instance like 707 00:34:30,813 --> 00:34:33,973 Speaker 12: the Twin Towers, that is wrong in every single sense 708 00:34:34,013 --> 00:34:36,293 Speaker 12: in the world, and in fact, up in the UK 709 00:34:36,533 --> 00:34:40,333 Speaker 12: there is an actual Walt Amittis Hunters Club which goes 710 00:34:40,373 --> 00:34:44,653 Speaker 12: out sort of sorting these people out, and to actually 711 00:34:44,693 --> 00:34:46,933 Speaker 12: do it in the United Kingdom, wearing medals on your 712 00:34:47,013 --> 00:34:49,893 Speaker 12: chest is actually going to be a legal thing, and 713 00:34:49,973 --> 00:34:51,693 Speaker 12: that leads to a custodial sentence. 714 00:34:52,133 --> 00:34:56,053 Speaker 3: You're right, there are limits, because I generally believe that 715 00:34:57,093 --> 00:35:00,093 Speaker 3: and I tell my kids no white lies, and generally 716 00:35:00,133 --> 00:35:02,773 Speaker 3: in my life I believe that honesty is the best policy. 717 00:35:02,893 --> 00:35:06,693 Speaker 3: But there are eache cases Jeremy say, for example, and 718 00:35:06,853 --> 00:35:10,333 Speaker 3: I know people always go to this era for the 719 00:35:10,573 --> 00:35:14,253 Speaker 3: edge case examples, but say you're in the house of 720 00:35:14,653 --> 00:35:18,733 Speaker 3: Anne Frank and she's in the attic and the Nazis 721 00:35:18,853 --> 00:35:21,293 Speaker 3: knock on the door and they say, is there anyone 722 00:35:21,373 --> 00:35:25,373 Speaker 3: in your house? In this house, then that is the 723 00:35:25,453 --> 00:35:29,773 Speaker 3: far edge case with I believe that you go, no, 724 00:35:30,293 --> 00:35:31,333 Speaker 3: there's no one else in here. 725 00:35:35,413 --> 00:35:37,893 Speaker 12: Life or death, isn't it? That is life or death. 726 00:35:37,933 --> 00:35:39,373 Speaker 12: I mean, at the end of the day, if it's 727 00:35:39,413 --> 00:35:41,013 Speaker 12: your life or their life, and you're going to get 728 00:35:41,053 --> 00:35:44,613 Speaker 12: away with not losing your life for making a story 729 00:35:44,693 --> 00:35:46,613 Speaker 12: up or to protect your family and your loved ones, 730 00:35:46,693 --> 00:35:49,533 Speaker 12: that's it. Yes, I mean that's an isolated incident. But 731 00:35:49,933 --> 00:35:52,853 Speaker 12: going back to writing, it's physically writing and coringuring up 732 00:35:52,893 --> 00:35:56,133 Speaker 12: a CV and then applying for a position, which you 733 00:35:56,293 --> 00:35:58,813 Speaker 12: know on the CV, quite a lot of the information 734 00:35:58,893 --> 00:36:02,013 Speaker 12: that you supplied or just an isolated piece isn't correct. 735 00:36:02,373 --> 00:36:06,533 Speaker 12: It's fabricated.

And I was third in the 827 00:40:12,133 --> 00:40:15,773 Speaker 3: queue and the time was ticking down for us to 828 00:40:15,853 --> 00:40:21,213 Speaker 3: be on air, and someone was making a complicated late 829 00:40:21,453 --> 00:40:24,133 Speaker 3: macchiato that was going incredibly slowly, and I was like, oh, 830 00:40:24,133 --> 00:40:26,973 Speaker 3: I've still got time. And then you abandoned ship, Tyler 831 00:40:26,973 --> 00:40:27,933 Speaker 3: because you thought it was too close. 832 00:40:28,053 --> 00:40:29,293 Speaker 2: I got out of that. I mean, it was a 833 00:40:29,333 --> 00:40:31,933 Speaker 2: wonderful thing to watch, folks, because Matt was very diplomatic. 834 00:40:32,013 --> 00:40:33,973 Speaker 2: He was sitting there and saying, how much time we got, 835 00:40:34,053 --> 00:40:36,253 Speaker 2: Tyler trying to hurry this feller along, but the guy 836 00:40:36,373 --> 00:40:36,973 Speaker 2: was in no hurry. 837 00:40:37,013 --> 00:40:39,692 Speaker 3: We there's someone else after that as well. Meanwhile, we're 838 00:40:39,693 --> 00:40:42,013 Speaker 3: about to go live, and I'm not willing to abandon 839 00:40:42,053 --> 00:40:44,613 Speaker 3: my coffee. No, So then I'm watching it. It was 840 00:40:44,653 --> 00:40:45,853 Speaker 3: like one of those scenes in the movie, you know, 841 00:40:46,013 --> 00:40:49,293 Speaker 3: you're trying to download the secret files onto the USB 842 00:40:49,453 --> 00:40:52,173 Speaker 3: stack and the person's coming back to their office. 843 00:40:52,413 --> 00:40:53,693 Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got to go. We're going to go. 844 00:40:53,893 --> 00:40:57,773 Speaker 3: It's really increased my my heart rates. It's quite exciting actually. 845 00:40:57,853 --> 00:40:59,373 Speaker 2: But we made it and you got your coffee, so 846 00:40:59,453 --> 00:41:01,652 Speaker 2: there was good news. No coffee for me at this stage. 847 00:41:01,693 --> 00:41:03,493 Speaker 2: We ran out of time, but I'll get mine. Hey, 848 00:41:04,013 --> 00:41:06,373 Speaker 2: now before we're going to carry on this conversation for 849 00:41:06,373 --> 00:41:08,173 Speaker 2: a little bit because we had so many people texting 850 00:41:08,413 --> 00:41:10,613 Speaker 2: wanting to have a chat about this embellishing things on 851 00:41:10,773 --> 00:41:14,093 Speaker 2: your CV. Is it okay? This is after an investigation 852 00:41:14,333 --> 00:41:18,973 Speaker 2: has discovered a man called Farley Andrew Lesser. He did 853 00:41:19,053 --> 00:41:21,733 Speaker 2: tell a bit of a poky about his credentials to 854 00:41:21,853 --> 00:41:25,172 Speaker 2: a speech to Texas University where he said he had 855 00:41:25,573 --> 00:41:28,533 Speaker 2: a jurist doctorate degree from Yale. That wasn't the truth, 856 00:41:28,573 --> 00:41:31,853 Speaker 2: and now he's decided to resign from everything but talking 857 00:41:31,893 --> 00:41:35,053 Speaker 2: about white lies. And I've just been reading a chapter 858 00:41:35,413 --> 00:41:40,533 Speaker 2: in a book about telling white lies. Okay, so can 859 00:41:40,613 --> 00:41:42,413 Speaker 2: I mention this chapter? So I mentioned the book for 860 00:41:42,493 --> 00:41:43,613 Speaker 2: you just before we go to the book. 861 00:41:43,693 --> 00:41:49,493 Speaker 3: So what I'm saying on a CV there's room Morally, 862 00:41:49,733 --> 00:41:52,413 Speaker 3: I believe if you really need the job or you 863 00:41:53,173 --> 00:41:57,853 Speaker 3: want the job, to just leave a few things a 864 00:41:57,973 --> 00:42:03,053 Speaker 3: little bit unsaid, and maybe if you take a little 865 00:42:03,253 --> 00:42:05,973 Speaker 3: bit more credit for something, then maybe was yours at 866 00:42:06,053 --> 00:42:08,293 Speaker 3: the last job. And if you know that you can 867 00:42:08,373 --> 00:42:10,373 Speaker 3: an up skill by the time you start the job, 868 00:42:10,493 --> 00:42:15,253 Speaker 3: to maybe not mention that you haven't quite used that software, right, 869 00:42:15,453 --> 00:42:17,853 Speaker 3: just just a little it's not even it's not a 870 00:42:17,933 --> 00:42:20,172 Speaker 3: white lie, or maybe it is. Maybe they're just sort 871 00:42:20,173 --> 00:42:22,573 Speaker 3: of a white lie to get into the job. And 872 00:42:22,653 --> 00:42:26,133 Speaker 3: generally speaking, I believe in honesty. Yeah, absolutely truth. So 873 00:42:26,253 --> 00:42:29,453 Speaker 3: I just think you can just in the CV world 874 00:42:29,533 --> 00:42:30,293 Speaker 3: because you. 875 00:42:30,333 --> 00:42:32,573 Speaker 2: Know, so it's a white lie, but a white lie 876 00:42:32,693 --> 00:42:35,213 Speaker 2: is lying for good reasons, right, good intentions. It might 877 00:42:35,293 --> 00:42:36,853 Speaker 2: be a bit of a selfless act if you're trying 878 00:42:36,853 --> 00:42:38,413 Speaker 2: to get the job to make sure that your family 879 00:42:38,453 --> 00:42:40,093 Speaker 2: has food on the table. But here's a bit of 880 00:42:40,133 --> 00:42:42,373 Speaker 2: the chapter, and then I'll mention the book. So telling 881 00:42:42,453 --> 00:42:46,093 Speaker 2: lies is an excellent way to complicate life and pilot 882 00:42:46,173 --> 00:42:46,933 Speaker 2: on stress. 883 00:42:46,693 --> 00:42:48,213 Speaker 3: Okay, I see what you're doing here. You're hoisting me 884 00:42:48,293 --> 00:42:49,253 Speaker 3: on my own potad. 885 00:42:49,573 --> 00:42:51,613 Speaker 2: Yep. So the book in question, by the way, is 886 00:42:51,613 --> 00:42:53,732 Speaker 2: a life less punishing Thirteen Ways to Love the Life 887 00:42:53,773 --> 00:42:56,172 Speaker 2: You've Got, written by Matt Heaths. Telling lies is an 888 00:42:56,213 --> 00:42:59,493 Speaker 2: excellent way to complicate life and pylon stress, whether it's 889 00:42:59,573 --> 00:43:04,173 Speaker 2: making untrue statements, creating false or misleading impressions, hiding secrets, 890 00:43:04,293 --> 00:43:07,973 Speaker 2: or telling white lies. In his book Lying, neuroscientist Sam 891 00:43:08,333 --> 00:43:11,933 Speaker 2: Harris makes a strong case against dishonesty. Dishonesty. He points 892 00:43:11,973 --> 00:43:15,613 Speaker 2: out that a liar must expand expend rather mental space 893 00:43:15,693 --> 00:43:19,333 Speaker 2: and energy to uphold a falsehood, remembering what he has 894 00:43:19,453 --> 00:43:22,093 Speaker 2: said to whom, and when this is effort you could 895 00:43:22,133 --> 00:43:25,533 Speaker 2: be using for authentic communication. This is well written. The 896 00:43:25,573 --> 00:43:29,093 Speaker 2: stress grows because a liar then has to analyze every 897 00:43:29,293 --> 00:43:32,453 Speaker 2: conversation to protect the lie. Whether you get rumbled on 898 00:43:32,573 --> 00:43:36,213 Speaker 2: it or not, it generally makes things more complex and difficult. 899 00:43:35,933 --> 00:43:37,812 Speaker 3: Whether you go and I can see why that book 900 00:43:37,893 --> 00:43:39,453 Speaker 3: by me was the number one best seller. 901 00:43:40,493 --> 00:43:41,413 Speaker 2: Very well brilliant. 902 00:43:41,453 --> 00:43:43,453 Speaker 3: But you have done what you've done there, Tyler, and 903 00:43:43,453 --> 00:43:46,093 Speaker 3: it's very clever. You've hoisted me on my own potat Yeah, correct, 904 00:43:46,173 --> 00:43:49,213 Speaker 3: because I have written extensive, extensively about how I think 905 00:43:49,293 --> 00:43:50,013 Speaker 3: liag is a bad thing. 906 00:43:50,053 --> 00:43:52,333 Speaker 2: I researched and what would Sam Harris think about So 907 00:43:52,413 --> 00:43:53,453 Speaker 2: this conversation. 908 00:43:53,133 --> 00:43:56,053 Speaker 3: Now I'm currently on shaky ground because I'm saying that 909 00:43:56,253 --> 00:43:58,293 Speaker 3: there are points. But in that book, I go on 910 00:43:58,413 --> 00:44:01,013 Speaker 3: to say I tried to spend a week not lying, 911 00:44:01,533 --> 00:44:05,493 Speaker 3: and then in the first five minutes, within five minutes 912 00:44:05,533 --> 00:44:08,293 Speaker 3: of trying, I lied when my my lovely partner asked 913 00:44:08,413 --> 00:44:12,493 Speaker 3: me whether I liked her matching brown shorts and single 914 00:44:12,533 --> 00:44:15,173 Speaker 3: it combo, Yeah, I said, it looks amazing, Daylor. 915 00:44:15,013 --> 00:44:15,732 Speaker 2: You're a smart man. 916 00:44:15,973 --> 00:44:19,373 Speaker 3: Yeah. So I failed on the first step with a 917 00:44:19,453 --> 00:44:19,933 Speaker 3: white life. 918 00:44:20,453 --> 00:44:22,613 Speaker 2: But when it comes to white lies, and this is 919 00:44:22,653 --> 00:44:24,933 Speaker 2: a question for you, Matt and for our listeners. So 920 00:44:25,293 --> 00:44:28,692 Speaker 2: to me, embellishing the CV or a white light if 921 00:44:28,733 --> 00:44:31,573 Speaker 2: it is done for a selfless purpose, whether that's getting 922 00:44:31,613 --> 00:44:34,733 Speaker 2: your job, to look after your family, or in that instance, 923 00:44:34,853 --> 00:44:37,653 Speaker 2: saying that your partner looks really good on whatever she's wearing, 924 00:44:37,693 --> 00:44:40,732 Speaker 2: even if she's not to me, is a selfless act. 925 00:44:40,813 --> 00:44:43,453 Speaker 2: So that's a difference. Even if it is dishonest, it 926 00:44:43,573 --> 00:44:47,373 Speaker 2: is still selfless. If you lie to better yourself. Then 927 00:44:47,453 --> 00:44:48,613 Speaker 2: that to me is a no. 928 00:44:48,733 --> 00:44:51,773 Speaker 3: No, is it a selfish act. The reason why you're 929 00:44:51,853 --> 00:44:54,213 Speaker 3: saying to your partner that they look great in this thing, 930 00:44:54,333 --> 00:44:57,213 Speaker 3: and they do look great in it, but maybe what 931 00:44:57,253 --> 00:44:59,853 Speaker 3: they're wearing slightly odd. The reason why you do that 932 00:45:00,053 --> 00:45:02,652 Speaker 3: is not to be selfless. You do it to get 933 00:45:02,733 --> 00:45:04,933 Speaker 3: rid of the hassle and just to smooth things over, 934 00:45:05,533 --> 00:45:08,853 Speaker 3: because the actual right thing to do is say, know, 935 00:45:09,453 --> 00:45:11,373 Speaker 3: that looks a bit weird, rather than them going out 936 00:45:11,413 --> 00:45:12,732 Speaker 3: and someone saying that's a bit weird. 937 00:45:12,853 --> 00:45:12,973 Speaker 11: Right. 938 00:45:13,453 --> 00:45:18,893 Speaker 3: And actually, if you're listening, Tracy, we've disgusted because she 939 00:45:18,933 --> 00:45:19,413 Speaker 3: read the book. 940 00:45:19,453 --> 00:45:21,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, and she read, But that was my brown outfit, 941 00:45:21,253 --> 00:45:24,173 Speaker 2: wasn't it? Your bloody lied you look good, Tracy. It 942 00:45:24,253 --> 00:45:25,813 Speaker 2: was just you know, the clothes were a bit different, 943 00:45:25,853 --> 00:45:27,333 Speaker 2: That's all. But yeah, I hears it. 944 00:45:27,493 --> 00:45:31,573 Speaker 3: So arguably, the honest truth makes people make the right 945 00:45:31,653 --> 00:45:35,692 Speaker 3: decision for themselves. And that's and I guess the reason 946 00:45:35,733 --> 00:45:37,973 Speaker 3: why I'm seeing a little bit of nuance in it 947 00:45:38,053 --> 00:45:40,613 Speaker 3: in the CV region is because you're trying to get 948 00:45:40,893 --> 00:45:43,733 Speaker 3: the Ah, God, it's hard. I could be on shaky 949 00:45:43,773 --> 00:45:48,252 Speaker 3: ground with maybe maybe if you think that you could 950 00:45:48,293 --> 00:45:50,853 Speaker 3: be great for the employer. Yes, right, if you honestly 951 00:45:50,973 --> 00:45:53,613 Speaker 3: believe that you can do the job and you'll be fantastic, 952 00:45:54,173 --> 00:45:57,093 Speaker 3: then maybe leaving a couple of things out and twisting 953 00:45:57,133 --> 00:45:59,573 Speaker 3: a few things here and there isn't the bad worst thing. 954 00:45:59,653 --> 00:46:01,533 Speaker 3: But yeah, I understand I'm on shaky ground logically. 955 00:46:01,613 --> 00:46:03,373 Speaker 2: Oh one hundred and eighty, ten to eighty. If you've 956 00:46:03,453 --> 00:46:07,013 Speaker 2: ever embellished on your CV, why did you do it? 957 00:46:07,093 --> 00:46:09,013 Speaker 2: And what did you embellish? Love to hear from you. 958 00:46:09,253 --> 00:46:12,973 Speaker 3: And look, we all agree that this muppet that's saying 959 00:46:13,053 --> 00:46:16,053 Speaker 3: he's got a doctorate from Yale and he didn't. I mean, 960 00:46:16,093 --> 00:46:18,253 Speaker 3: that's that's out the gate. That's insanity. 961 00:46:18,413 --> 00:46:21,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know that fabrication. Yeah, and a degree. 962 00:46:21,533 --> 00:46:23,253 Speaker 3: And if you're a pilot, don't say that you've got 963 00:46:23,293 --> 00:46:23,613 Speaker 3: your part. 964 00:46:23,733 --> 00:46:26,212 Speaker 2: Listen your tone. And if you're a heart surgeon, et cetera. 965 00:46:26,253 --> 00:46:29,053 Speaker 3: The obvious points, Mike, whatever you want to say to 966 00:46:29,173 --> 00:46:32,253 Speaker 3: a prospective boss, nothing beats a reference from former employers 967 00:46:32,333 --> 00:46:35,973 Speaker 3: to secure the job. So important keeps people honest and reliable. Yeah, 968 00:46:36,013 --> 00:46:38,172 Speaker 3: but I've always got people asking me to be their 969 00:46:38,213 --> 00:46:40,933 Speaker 3: reference and asking me to say certain things, and. 970 00:46:40,973 --> 00:46:42,893 Speaker 2: You've got to tell them a white lie and say look, 971 00:46:42,933 --> 00:46:43,213 Speaker 2: I'm just. 972 00:46:43,333 --> 00:46:45,413 Speaker 3: Well, I'm an honest person, so I don't. But if 973 00:46:45,453 --> 00:46:47,693 Speaker 3: they're asking me, they're actually asking around their groups of 974 00:46:47,733 --> 00:46:51,213 Speaker 3: friends to come up with references. Anyway, David, welcome to 975 00:46:51,253 --> 00:46:54,172 Speaker 3: the showy fellows. Are right, very good. 976 00:46:55,413 --> 00:46:57,853 Speaker 14: Just going back twenty five thirty years ago. Top of 977 00:46:57,893 --> 00:47:02,333 Speaker 14: thing when we were living in London, flatipus and one 978 00:47:02,373 --> 00:47:05,653 Speaker 14: of the guys went along. He was actually a property value, 979 00:47:07,013 --> 00:47:12,293 Speaker 14: quite a smart guy named Matt Taylor. He's got practice 980 00:47:12,333 --> 00:47:14,613 Speaker 14: here in New Zealand now. But anyway, he went along 981 00:47:15,253 --> 00:47:18,812 Speaker 14: to a job as a handyman and the guy said 982 00:47:18,813 --> 00:47:20,453 Speaker 14: to Mark, could you go and hang a door?

So I was actually hiring 1117 00:53:33,853 --> 00:53:36,293 Speaker 6: people from overseas. And there was a certain country where 1118 00:53:36,333 --> 00:53:38,212 Speaker 6: a lot of people were running away. I won't stay where, 1119 00:53:38,293 --> 00:53:40,333 Speaker 6: but they were coming to His Zealand with these cvs 1120 00:53:41,053 --> 00:53:42,453 Speaker 6: and they look like they're pretty good. 1121 00:53:42,453 --> 00:53:42,813 Speaker 15: And I was. 1122 00:53:43,213 --> 00:53:45,693 Speaker 6: I hired one guy and I says, mate, are you 1123 00:53:45,853 --> 00:53:48,252 Speaker 6: really an engineer? I was watching his work and I says, mate, 1124 00:53:49,133 --> 00:53:50,693 Speaker 6: who was doing the work for you? 1125 00:53:50,773 --> 00:53:51,013 Speaker 4: Is old? 1126 00:53:51,053 --> 00:53:52,773 Speaker 6: We had other followers do the work. We just set 1127 00:53:52,813 --> 00:53:56,333 Speaker 6: in an office and I sacked him immediately. He took 1128 00:53:56,373 --> 00:53:58,613 Speaker 6: me to the small claims court. I just ignored him 1129 00:53:58,653 --> 00:54:00,333 Speaker 6: to turn up. I kept on throwing the letter and 1130 00:54:00,693 --> 00:54:03,133 Speaker 6: I didn't turn up at all. And when they said 1131 00:54:03,133 --> 00:54:04,493 Speaker 6: they're going to they're going to have me up for 1132 00:54:04,533 --> 00:54:07,093 Speaker 6: a fine, I just ignored them because the guy wasn't qualified. 1133 00:54:07,613 --> 00:54:08,253 Speaker 4: He said he was. 1134 00:54:09,253 --> 00:54:11,653 Speaker 6: But then when I had several other guys came in 1135 00:54:11,773 --> 00:54:14,333 Speaker 6: from the same country with these big cvs who didn't 1136 00:54:14,493 --> 00:54:16,373 Speaker 6: see that the CV's out for you guys, because I 1137 00:54:16,373 --> 00:54:20,053 Speaker 6: couldn't checked the qualifications. So in the end I asked them, 1138 00:54:20,213 --> 00:54:22,093 Speaker 6: I said, well, there's a worlder there, there's a peat 1139 00:54:22,133 --> 00:54:23,533 Speaker 6: weld in the midweld, and I want your well, this 1140 00:54:23,613 --> 00:54:25,093 Speaker 6: sends up for me.

And they go from this country where 1142 00:54:28,613 --> 00:54:30,613 Speaker 6: you couldn't check them out, and I says, well where 1143 00:54:30,653 --> 00:54:33,573 Speaker 6: did you guys learn you get do degrees from? And 1144 00:54:33,693 --> 00:54:36,613 Speaker 6: I thought, Jesus is difficult. You know, it's really difficult 1145 00:54:36,653 --> 00:54:40,413 Speaker 6: to check the place from a certain countries with their qualifications. 1146 00:54:40,533 --> 00:54:43,813 Speaker 6: And I think it was so hard when you own 1147 00:54:43,893 --> 00:54:46,533 Speaker 6: a company and you've got it, you've got a lot 1148 00:54:46,573 --> 00:54:48,933 Speaker 6: of work on and you get these people with these 1149 00:54:49,013 --> 00:54:51,053 Speaker 6: bulls at TVs and you say, well, how do you 1150 00:54:51,173 --> 00:54:51,652 Speaker 6: really work? 1151 00:54:51,853 --> 00:54:54,173 Speaker 3: So it's the current situation. You'll know this because I 1152 00:54:54,213 --> 00:54:56,893 Speaker 3: know there's ninety day trials or whatever. And we had 1153 00:54:56,933 --> 00:54:59,213 Speaker 3: a caller before Cahn, I think it was who was 1154 00:54:59,253 --> 00:55:01,933 Speaker 3: saying that he offers when he goes for a job, Look, 1155 00:55:01,933 --> 00:55:03,613 Speaker 3: I'll work for you for free for a day and 1156 00:55:03,693 --> 00:55:05,813 Speaker 3: show you what I can do. So what is the 1157 00:55:06,453 --> 00:55:10,253 Speaker 3: you know, there's there's a job interview, a practical side 1158 00:55:10,253 --> 00:55:12,652 Speaker 3: of it.

Hey, here's 1289 01:01:17,973 --> 01:01:21,653 Speaker 2: a good text, guys. Richard Branson says, if somebody offers 1290 01:01:21,693 --> 01:01:24,013 Speaker 2: you an amazing opportunity but you are not sure if 1291 01:01:24,013 --> 01:01:25,973 Speaker 2: you can do it, say yes, then learn how to 1292 01:01:26,053 --> 01:01:26,533 Speaker 2: do it later. 1293 01:01:26,853 --> 01:01:28,493 Speaker 3: See, that was what I was saying. That's what I 1294 01:01:28,573 --> 01:01:31,933 Speaker 3: did around this particular editing software. It's a bit different 1295 01:01:31,973 --> 01:01:34,133 Speaker 3: than this text here. I worked at an international airline, 1296 01:01:34,213 --> 01:01:38,213 Speaker 3: was involved in the simulator and training phase, flying passengers 1297 01:01:38,253 --> 01:01:40,653 Speaker 3: with a couple of guys who were clearly fraudulent in 1298 01:01:40,693 --> 01:01:41,853 Speaker 3: their claims of experience. 1299 01:01:42,293 --> 01:01:45,093 Speaker 2: They would fired. I mean, yeah, there's levels. 1300 01:01:45,173 --> 01:01:47,853 Speaker 3: There's one thing when you sort of slightly embellish things 1301 01:01:48,933 --> 01:01:51,933 Speaker 3: as opposed to anything to do with flying people or 1302 01:01:51,973 --> 01:01:55,853 Speaker 3: putting people's lives at riskin very different. So this text is, so, 1303 01:01:55,933 --> 01:01:58,013 Speaker 3: which is it Matt okay to lie to benefit your 1304 01:01:58,013 --> 01:02:00,453 Speaker 3: family or because the employee will benefit You're putting a 1305 01:02:00,493 --> 01:02:03,213 Speaker 3: lot of energies into justifying your big fat Porky's says 1306 01:02:03,213 --> 01:02:07,173 Speaker 3: the sext there. Yeah, looking back now, and I actually 1307 01:02:07,213 --> 01:02:10,453 Speaker 3: think that maybe generally speaking, it's best to be as 1308 01:02:10,493 --> 01:02:13,773 Speaker 3: honest as you possibly can. Yeah, generally speaking, and as 1309 01:02:13,813 --> 01:02:16,213 Speaker 3: you wrote in your generally yeah, just be honest. Come on, 1310 01:02:16,453 --> 01:02:19,653 Speaker 3: as you wrote in your book, it makes things complicated, right, 1311 01:02:19,693 --> 01:02:22,773 Speaker 3: and just add stress. Even white lies sometimes.

You can see the 1346 01:04:07,813 --> 01:04:10,493 Speaker 10: story at it and said Herald Premium back to matt 1347 01:04:10,533 --> 01:04:11,653 Speaker 10: Ethan Tyler Adams. 1348 01:04:14,013 --> 01:04:16,133 Speaker 2: Oh, thank you very much, Raileen, turn your mi con 1349 01:04:16,213 --> 01:04:19,093 Speaker 2: Tyler right. This is going to be a good discussion NCEA. 1350 01:04:19,413 --> 01:04:23,373 Speaker 2: There are questions being raised about n CEA at the 1351 01:04:23,533 --> 01:04:27,853 Speaker 2: highest levels. Erica Stanford has been given advice around the 1352 01:04:28,493 --> 01:04:31,333 Speaker 2: implementation of that system and whether it's working as well 1353 01:04:31,373 --> 01:04:34,453 Speaker 2: as it should. Among the red light alerts. This was 1354 01:04:34,813 --> 01:04:38,133 Speaker 2: in a document obtained by The Herald. Was that flexibility 1355 01:04:38,213 --> 01:04:41,893 Speaker 2: built into the system included regarding what assessment students that 1356 01:04:42,133 --> 01:04:44,973 Speaker 2: mean mean courses can be structured around those perceived to 1357 01:04:45,053 --> 01:04:48,733 Speaker 2: be easier to accumulate credits, and that has long been 1358 01:04:48,773 --> 01:04:51,613 Speaker 2: one of the criticisms of NZA. They call it credit farming, 1359 01:04:52,173 --> 01:04:59,413 Speaker 2: that they can utilize what might be considered uneducational things 1360 01:04:59,533 --> 01:05:01,613 Speaker 2: like picking up rubbish, and they can acquire credits to 1361 01:05:01,653 --> 01:05:02,533 Speaker 2: get them over the line. 1362 01:05:03,173 --> 01:05:07,973 Speaker 3: Right yeah, I mean whatever, It's complicated, Incaa, I've got kids. 1363 01:05:08,013 --> 01:05:09,533 Speaker 3: I've got one kid doing it now, and I've had 1364 01:05:09,533 --> 01:05:11,173 Speaker 3: a kid that's gone through it. I've never really fully 1365 01:05:11,253 --> 01:05:13,413 Speaker 3: understood what was going on with the system. I just 1366 01:05:13,613 --> 01:05:16,053 Speaker 3: want as a parent, I just want to know how 1367 01:05:16,093 --> 01:05:20,013 Speaker 3: well they're doing so a percentage, and I don't want 1368 01:05:20,013 --> 01:05:21,493 Speaker 3: them going because I always talk to them they're going 1369 01:05:21,533 --> 01:05:23,253 Speaker 3: to exams and one of them might go, yeah, well 1370 01:05:23,253 --> 01:05:24,533 Speaker 3: I've got this and this and this, so i don't 1371 01:05:24,533 --> 01:05:26,333 Speaker 3: need to get much in the exam. And I'm like, well, 1372 01:05:27,053 --> 01:05:28,613 Speaker 3: that doesn't seem right to me. 1373 01:05:29,853 --> 01:05:29,973 Speaker 7: Am. 1374 01:05:30,013 --> 01:05:32,053 Speaker 3: I just looking at it. When I was at school, 1375 01:05:32,093 --> 01:05:34,213 Speaker 3: that was just the exam, right I think. No. I 1376 01:05:34,293 --> 01:05:39,493 Speaker 3: know we had internal assessment in year twelve, but I 1377 01:05:39,533 --> 01:05:41,173 Speaker 3: don't know. What do you want as a parent and 1378 01:05:41,213 --> 01:05:43,293 Speaker 3: what do you want as a students? That's what I 1379 01:05:43,333 --> 01:05:45,013 Speaker 3: want to know. One hundred and eighty ten eighty. If 1380 01:05:45,013 --> 01:05:46,533 Speaker 3: we're going to it says there's a Cambridge system. The 1381 01:05:46,653 --> 01:05:50,373 Speaker 3: NCAA system, Right. The NCAA system seems incredibly complex to me, 1382 01:05:50,493 --> 01:05:54,653 Speaker 3: and it feels like you can hide amongst it and 1383 01:05:54,773 --> 01:05:56,253 Speaker 3: it and it feels like there's a hell of a 1384 01:05:56,293 --> 01:05:58,053 Speaker 3: lot of work for teachers in it. There's a lot 1385 01:05:58,093 --> 01:06:02,093 Speaker 3: of internal assessment. My gut feeling is just exams at 1386 01:06:02,093 --> 01:06:04,133 Speaker 3: the end of the year and then you just get 1387 01:06:04,133 --> 01:06:07,053 Speaker 3: a percentage and that sums it up. It's very clean. 1388 01:06:07,333 --> 01:06:09,333 Speaker 3: You find out that you useless at math, and that's 1389 01:06:09,373 --> 01:06:10,293 Speaker 3: interesting knowledge to know. 1390 01:06:10,533 --> 01:06:12,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was an easy way to determine whether 1391 01:06:12,733 --> 01:06:14,293 Speaker 2: you needed some more help as it. You know, my 1392 01:06:14,493 --> 01:06:17,733 Speaker 2: parents saw in year eleven, fifth form at the time 1393 01:06:17,893 --> 01:06:20,053 Speaker 2: that I was terrible at math because I got about 1394 01:06:20,093 --> 01:06:22,653 Speaker 2: thirty percent of my final examination. So at that point 1395 01:06:22,733 --> 01:06:24,653 Speaker 2: they came into the mold. They could see quite clearly 1396 01:06:24,733 --> 01:06:27,413 Speaker 2: Tyler is terrible at maths and started getting me a tutor. 1397 01:06:27,493 --> 01:06:29,333 Speaker 2: But for everything else I kind of just got over 1398 01:06:29,413 --> 01:06:32,453 Speaker 2: the mark. But still my old man knew when he said, Tyler, 1399 01:06:32,453 --> 01:06:34,213 Speaker 2: you're better than fifty five percent in English. 1400 01:06:34,253 --> 01:06:34,653 Speaker 14: You know that. 1401 01:06:35,093 --> 01:06:37,973 Speaker 2: But that was a clear cut So instead of this achieved, 1402 01:06:38,173 --> 01:06:40,893 Speaker 2: and achieve sounds good that you've achieved something, but that 1403 01:06:41,053 --> 01:06:43,453 Speaker 2: is the bare minimum. Then you've got merit. What is merit? 1404 01:06:43,533 --> 01:06:43,573 Speaker 13: Me? 1405 01:06:43,813 --> 01:06:44,013 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1406 01:06:44,133 --> 01:06:46,333 Speaker 3: And when I say to my one of my kids 1407 01:06:46,413 --> 01:06:48,093 Speaker 3: said he got a merit on something, and I said, 1408 01:06:48,133 --> 01:06:49,973 Speaker 3: well that's good, he goes, no, Merrit's not very good. 1409 01:06:50,013 --> 01:06:52,773 Speaker 3: They've lowered the bar, so merit isn't really anything. Yeah, 1410 01:06:53,013 --> 01:06:54,693 Speaker 3: and you're like, well, I don't know, just give me 1411 01:06:54,693 --> 01:06:56,653 Speaker 3: a percentage. What was your percentage? I don't know what 1412 01:06:56,733 --> 01:06:57,373 Speaker 3: my percentage was. 1413 01:06:57,533 --> 01:06:57,693 Speaker 14: Yeah. 1414 01:06:58,173 --> 01:07:00,173 Speaker 2: I mean part of me looking at the system thinks 1415 01:07:00,213 --> 01:07:02,333 Speaker 2: that it was designed to keep self esteem of the 1416 01:07:02,853 --> 01:07:05,653 Speaker 2: children in mind, right, that if you're not achieving that 1417 01:07:05,813 --> 01:07:10,013 Speaker 2: well and you get an achievement there, the ideology there 1418 01:07:10,253 --> 01:07:12,213 Speaker 2: is that you're not telling the kid that they're failing. 1419 01:07:12,493 --> 01:07:14,293 Speaker 2: You're not telling the child that they're not doing well. 1420 01:07:14,333 --> 01:07:16,413 Speaker 2: They've achieved. They can just do a bit better and 1421 01:07:16,533 --> 01:07:18,493 Speaker 2: get some merit. But I wonder how good that is 1422 01:07:18,613 --> 01:07:20,933 Speaker 2: for a child, surely, even children. 1423 01:07:21,013 --> 01:07:23,853 Speaker 3: You want the raw, cold hard data. We've just been 1424 01:07:23,853 --> 01:07:27,813 Speaker 3: talking about the truth, and that's what you want, right. 1425 01:07:27,893 --> 01:07:30,413 Speaker 3: You want to know that if you are useless at something, 1426 01:07:30,573 --> 01:07:32,613 Speaker 3: that you're currently useless at it. You don't want You 1427 01:07:32,653 --> 01:07:35,613 Speaker 3: don't want it to be given to you softly, do you? 1428 01:07:35,733 --> 01:07:37,653 Speaker 3: And I don't think parents want that either. Yeah, I 1429 01:07:37,733 --> 01:07:40,133 Speaker 3: mean we're talking about parents I know that put their 1430 01:07:40,333 --> 01:07:42,773 Speaker 3: report cards through chet GPT just to understand what it's 1431 01:07:42,773 --> 01:07:45,653 Speaker 3: trying to actually say to them. Yeah, And meanwhile, teachers 1432 01:07:45,693 --> 01:07:48,413 Speaker 3: are spending ages and ages on this. Don't you just 1433 01:07:48,533 --> 01:07:52,093 Speaker 3: want the teachers to teach to the curriculum and then 1434 01:07:52,893 --> 01:07:55,573 Speaker 3: you're examined from the outside and you get the results. 1435 01:07:55,693 --> 01:07:57,973 Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, eight, one hundred eighty ten eighty is the 1436 01:07:58,093 --> 01:07:58,613 Speaker 2: number to call. 1437 01:07:58,933 --> 01:08:00,653 Speaker 3: But is that the system you want for your kids? 1438 01:08:00,693 --> 01:08:03,493 Speaker 3: And if you have recently been through the system, or 1439 01:08:03,533 --> 01:08:06,613 Speaker 3: you've been through NCAA or you've been through Cambridge, love 1440 01:08:06,653 --> 01:08:08,573 Speaker 3: to hear from teachers as well, what are we want 1441 01:08:08,613 --> 01:08:10,973 Speaker 3: from the system because a lot of people don't seem 1442 01:08:10,973 --> 01:08:12,013 Speaker 3: to be happy with the current system. 1443 01:08:12,133 --> 01:08:14,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, and obviously it got changed at the time from 1444 01:08:14,173 --> 01:08:17,093 Speaker 2: the Cambridge system. So can you hear your thoughts? What 1445 01:08:17,253 --> 01:08:19,612 Speaker 2: does the perfect system look like at the secondary call 1446 01:08:19,693 --> 01:08:23,012 Speaker 2: our school system level? I should say it is eighteen 1447 01:08:23,053 --> 01:08:26,053 Speaker 2: to three, the phones of a letter, the. 1448 01:08:26,173 --> 01:08:28,692 Speaker 1: Issues that affect you and a bit of fun along 1449 01:08:28,772 --> 01:08:32,333 Speaker 1: the way Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons news talks 1450 01:08:32,372 --> 01:08:32,692 Speaker 1: that'd be. 1451 01:08:33,253 --> 01:08:37,293 Speaker 2: Supporter to three. Is NCEEA working and if it's not working, 1452 01:08:37,492 --> 01:08:42,133 Speaker 2: what is the perfect system to assess those in secondary school? 1453 01:08:42,333 --> 01:08:43,253 Speaker 2: And your thoughts on this? 1454 01:08:47,053 --> 01:08:47,612 Speaker 7: How you guys? 1455 01:08:48,213 --> 01:08:52,732 Speaker 17: My thoughts are that too many parents and employers don't 1456 01:08:52,732 --> 01:08:58,452 Speaker 17: actually understand NCA, and that's that's a big you know, 1457 01:08:58,853 --> 01:09:02,213 Speaker 17: people talk about being able to pick up credits for 1458 01:09:02,333 --> 01:09:09,173 Speaker 17: doing very little. It stems back to enter school certificate. 1459 01:09:10,133 --> 01:09:12,772 Speaker 17: Fifty percent of us were branded as failures at the 1460 01:09:12,812 --> 01:09:16,293 Speaker 17: first academic hurdle and that's no good for anyone. And 1461 01:09:16,572 --> 01:09:19,572 Speaker 17: we can all tell tales about people who have made 1462 01:09:19,652 --> 01:09:22,053 Speaker 17: millions and millions of dollars and pale school. See, so 1463 01:09:23,532 --> 01:09:27,013 Speaker 17: it wasn't a great system. We then the you know, 1464 01:09:28,452 --> 01:09:31,972 Speaker 17: if you're looking for quality candidate, look to set. They've 1465 01:09:32,013 --> 01:09:37,293 Speaker 17: got university entrants. And if I've done those subjects and 1466 01:09:37,973 --> 01:09:41,852 Speaker 17: pass them, including sitting external exams that have passed all 1467 01:09:41,933 --> 01:09:45,692 Speaker 17: on internals, then they've got their level toes or their 1468 01:09:45,772 --> 01:09:49,652 Speaker 17: level trees, but they aren't necessarily university firefight. 1469 01:09:51,452 --> 01:09:54,732 Speaker 3: Can I just it's interesting you say that so in 1470 01:09:54,893 --> 01:09:57,572 Speaker 3: school shirt if you weren't fifty percent, then you weren't 1471 01:09:57,612 --> 01:10:00,772 Speaker 3: fifty percent.

Now 1515 01:12:11,133 --> 01:12:14,532 Speaker 17: runs a very successful business employing quite a few guys, 1516 01:12:14,652 --> 01:12:15,612 Speaker 17: doing really really. 1517 01:12:15,452 --> 01:12:18,052 Speaker 4: Well because he took these value being educated. 1518 01:12:18,612 --> 01:12:24,213 Speaker 17: The next one's got an honors degree and you know, 1519 01:12:24,333 --> 01:12:27,173 Speaker 17: and he worked really really hard all the way through, 1520 01:12:27,253 --> 01:12:28,972 Speaker 17: but he's not making as much as the old one. 1521 01:12:29,652 --> 01:12:29,972 Speaker 2: MM. 1522 01:12:31,253 --> 01:12:34,052 Speaker 18: I don't think how education system is particularly great. 1523 01:12:34,532 --> 01:12:37,812 Speaker 3: So in that regard, would you say that everyone then 1524 01:12:38,093 --> 01:12:42,293 Speaker 3: should be awarded school certificate? Not that we have that anymore? 1525 01:12:44,572 --> 01:12:45,013 Speaker 7: Is that with that? 1526 01:12:45,372 --> 01:12:47,293 Speaker 2: I was done level one yep. 1527 01:12:48,652 --> 01:12:50,253 Speaker 17: I think my captain probably past that. 1528 01:12:50,812 --> 01:12:53,612 Speaker 2: Yeah, But just going back to the old system, ndy, 1529 01:12:54,053 --> 01:12:58,293 Speaker 2: and look, I was terrible mess and I failed school 1530 01:12:58,372 --> 01:13:00,732 Speaker 2: sert mass in the fifth form and was threatened to 1531 01:13:00,772 --> 01:13:02,892 Speaker 2: go into what they called the accelerate class at the time. 1532 01:13:03,572 --> 01:13:06,213 Speaker 2: But that enabled me to get some support around me 1533 01:13:06,293 --> 01:13:10,173 Speaker 2: to actually achieve in the sixth formers. So, because you know, 1534 01:13:10,213 --> 01:13:12,772 Speaker 2: it was pretty clear that I had thirty percent of 1535 01:13:12,853 --> 01:13:15,892 Speaker 2: mess in the fifth form, that gave me a boot 1536 01:13:15,973 --> 01:13:18,133 Speaker 2: up the bum to start actually achieving and getting that 1537 01:13:18,173 --> 01:13:18,772 Speaker 2: support needed. 1538 01:13:20,492 --> 01:13:20,692 Speaker 19: Yep. 1539 01:13:21,372 --> 01:13:23,532 Speaker 17: That said your school should be doing that.

She got to year eleven and 1681 01:19:31,253 --> 01:19:35,732 Speaker 5: they called me, called us an apparent interview, and they 1682 01:19:35,853 --> 01:19:37,772 Speaker 5: just said that she's doing really, really well, but she's 1683 01:19:37,812 --> 01:19:42,932 Speaker 5: actually struggling with mad We believe we've got a class 1684 01:19:42,973 --> 01:19:45,013 Speaker 5: set up. So what they did was if they thought 1685 01:19:45,133 --> 01:19:48,173 Speaker 5: any students were struggling with this particular subject, they would 1686 01:19:48,213 --> 01:19:50,652 Speaker 5: call talk to the parents. They would say that we 1687 01:19:50,732 --> 01:19:53,053 Speaker 5: can set up this class. It's a smaller class. What 1688 01:19:53,173 --> 01:19:55,093 Speaker 5: we do is we take out on one of the 1689 01:19:55,253 --> 01:19:57,532 Speaker 5: sort of credits for the year that might have been 1690 01:19:57,612 --> 01:19:59,612 Speaker 5: what she was she was struggling with the couples side 1691 01:19:59,612 --> 01:19:59,772 Speaker 5: of it. 1692 01:20:00,133 --> 01:20:00,932 Speaker 19: We take that out. 1693 01:20:01,013 --> 01:20:03,013 Speaker 5: She can have an extra week on everything else in 1694 01:20:03,093 --> 01:20:05,852 Speaker 5: that mass curriculum. I think it was a set or 1695 01:20:06,213 --> 01:20:09,133 Speaker 5: not one being to be maths sorry, and so she 1696 01:20:09,173 --> 01:20:12,972 Speaker 5: gets alonger with each So then ideally her marks actually higher, 1697 01:20:13,013 --> 01:20:17,412 Speaker 5: which they were across the board, because she's more confident 1698 01:20:17,532 --> 01:20:20,612 Speaker 5: because she's not failing or she's not just getting a shaved. 1699 01:20:21,133 --> 01:20:21,973 Speaker 19: So they did that. 1700 01:20:22,013 --> 01:20:24,812 Speaker 5: Apparently were just with every subject that they had as 1701 01:20:24,812 --> 01:20:25,213 Speaker 5: a student. 1702 01:20:25,253 --> 01:20:28,972 Speaker 2: It was like a very focused school, a good school. 1703 01:20:29,053 --> 01:20:31,732 Speaker 5: They just didn't want They had a very good path rate, 1704 01:20:32,093 --> 01:20:34,333 Speaker 5: but they had a pass rate. Her high path rate 1705 01:20:34,452 --> 01:20:37,333 Speaker 5: in the lower that the students that started there in 1706 01:20:37,492 --> 01:20:40,372 Speaker 5: lower they had one of the highest pass row. They 1707 01:20:40,452 --> 01:20:42,812 Speaker 5: didn't not fit them, and they didn't tell them. They 1708 01:20:42,853 --> 01:20:45,973 Speaker 5: wouldn't undersit just because they thought they might fail. They 1709 01:20:46,013 --> 01:20:46,732 Speaker 5: actually help them. 1710 01:20:47,772 --> 01:20:51,932 Speaker 3: Yeah, right now, Julie, do you think that your children, 1711 01:20:52,333 --> 01:20:54,412 Speaker 3: you know, say, this daughter that we're talking about right 1712 01:20:54,492 --> 01:20:56,052 Speaker 3: now has an. 1713 01:20:56,053 --> 01:20:57,772 Speaker 5: Accurate I'd love to hear them on here. 1714 01:21:00,372 --> 01:21:03,492 Speaker 3: Do you think she is getting and you're getting or 1715 01:21:03,572 --> 01:21:08,372 Speaker 3: got accurate information at where she actually sat. 1716 01:21:08,372 --> 01:21:11,572 Speaker 5: In terms of yes, very much so, I think. And 1717 01:21:11,692 --> 01:21:13,452 Speaker 5: they did that for all the students I know, some 1718 01:21:13,532 --> 01:21:15,333 Speaker 5: of her friends. Sorry, I didn't mean to cut you off. 1719 01:21:15,333 --> 01:21:19,532 Speaker 5: The she some of her friends the same situation a 1720 01:21:19,612 --> 01:21:22,612 Speaker 5: different subject, and so they would so they might have 1721 01:21:22,652 --> 01:21:24,932 Speaker 5: had been in that class story and then maybe even 1722 01:21:24,973 --> 01:21:29,093 Speaker 5: two or three features because they possibly had some the 1723 01:21:29,173 --> 01:21:33,213 Speaker 5: techarades and there with them, and so when knew exactly 1724 01:21:33,293 --> 01:21:35,133 Speaker 5: what was happening, and the way it was handled was 1725 01:21:35,532 --> 01:21:38,852 Speaker 5: very respectfully. So it was not telling her that she 1726 01:21:38,893 --> 01:21:41,213 Speaker 5: couldn't pass. I was telling her that she would actually 1727 01:21:41,213 --> 01:21:43,492 Speaker 5: get a better That was maybe something that she wasn't 1728 01:21:43,532 --> 01:21:46,852 Speaker 5: interested in talk to her about it. She had to 1729 01:21:46,933 --> 01:21:51,253 Speaker 5: say in the decision, but ultimately it was the better. 1730 01:21:52,173 --> 01:21:53,412 Speaker 12: So how do you think does that makes sense? 1731 01:21:53,612 --> 01:21:53,812 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1732 01:21:53,893 --> 01:21:55,692 Speaker 3: So how do you think she would have gone or 1733 01:21:55,732 --> 01:21:57,412 Speaker 3: the other students would have gone if they'd been in 1734 01:21:57,492 --> 01:21:59,412 Speaker 3: the system where it's just at the end of the 1735 01:21:59,532 --> 01:22:02,772 Speaker 3: year there's an exam and that's your year. What percent 1736 01:22:02,853 --> 01:22:03,253 Speaker 3: did you get? 1737 01:22:03,973 --> 01:22:05,492 Speaker 5: I think she would have struggled with the mats and 1738 01:22:05,572 --> 01:22:07,492 Speaker 5: she wouldn't have liked it. And I think that is 1739 01:22:07,572 --> 01:22:10,253 Speaker 5: the big thing, because she would have helped that that 1740 01:22:10,492 --> 01:22:13,612 Speaker 5: even just that one part the calculus, it would have 1741 01:22:13,692 --> 01:22:16,852 Speaker 5: made her It sort of taints everything else because it 1742 01:22:16,933 --> 01:22:20,053 Speaker 5: sort of that I'm not good at maths, where she 1743 01:22:20,293 --> 01:22:22,572 Speaker 5: was just not good it, well not not even not 1744 01:22:22,732 --> 01:22:26,892 Speaker 5: good it, but she was just found that part harder 1745 01:22:27,933 --> 01:22:28,213 Speaker 5: some of. 1746 01:22:28,253 --> 01:22:32,173 Speaker 2: The opposition I hear, Julie is the interpretation that's open 1747 01:22:32,253 --> 01:22:35,572 Speaker 2: to some teachers and individual schools. And from what we're 1748 01:22:35,612 --> 01:22:38,652 Speaker 2: hearing from you, clearly this school was very competent in 1749 01:22:38,772 --> 01:22:41,492 Speaker 2: how they interpreted it and how they helped their students 1750 01:22:41,532 --> 01:22:43,253 Speaker 2: and your daughter through. But do you think that's part 1751 01:22:43,293 --> 01:22:45,652 Speaker 2: of the problem, that there's too much flexibility there for 1752 01:22:45,772 --> 01:22:46,412 Speaker 2: different schools. 1753 01:22:46,612 --> 01:22:49,093 Speaker 5: Yes, And I think some of the problems also, as 1754 01:22:49,452 --> 01:22:52,173 Speaker 5: I think somebody were saying before, just this whole idea, 1755 01:22:52,293 --> 01:22:57,012 Speaker 5: is that maybe we're just making it seem like everyone 1756 01:22:57,053 --> 01:22:59,532 Speaker 5: has to pass and we're dumbing it down a weaver 1757 01:22:59,532 --> 01:23:02,693 Speaker 5: it and maybe you've got to have the real conversations 1758 01:23:03,492 --> 01:23:05,812 Speaker 5: and the schools. And I know that the school doesn't 1759 01:23:06,093 --> 01:23:08,253 Speaker 5: run that for the many more that I'm talking about, 1760 01:23:08,732 --> 01:23:12,173 Speaker 5: because they I think they've had some complaints about the 1761 01:23:12,492 --> 01:23:16,293 Speaker 5: effect of their stream and some parents didn't like streaming, 1762 01:23:16,452 --> 01:23:19,972 Speaker 5: so they've changed the system that lost very very well, 1763 01:23:20,293 --> 01:23:22,492 Speaker 5: and they don't do that in what to my knowledge. 1764 01:23:23,213 --> 01:23:25,772 Speaker 3: Yeah, the whole getting bit of streaming thing confuses me 1765 01:23:26,372 --> 01:23:31,013 Speaker 3: because that, you know, and another complaint that you sort 1766 01:23:31,013 --> 01:23:33,532 Speaker 3: of get about this is that whilst trying to make 1767 01:23:33,612 --> 01:23:37,612 Speaker 3: it less painful for people that aren't doing so well. 1768 01:23:38,013 --> 01:23:42,492 Speaker 3: You fail to celebrate the excellence of the students that 1769 01:23:42,853 --> 01:23:46,173 Speaker 3: are really, really good. And that's a problem because there's 1770 01:23:46,173 --> 01:23:49,492 Speaker 3: a country we need, we need more excellent people and 1771 01:23:50,013 --> 01:23:53,093 Speaker 3: we and and I guess people would complain that when 1772 01:23:53,133 --> 01:23:56,933 Speaker 3: you move the the goalpost around to sort of massage 1773 01:23:56,973 --> 01:24:01,812 Speaker 3: people through the passing, then it sort of takes away 1774 01:24:02,053 --> 01:24:06,412 Speaker 3: the competitive situation that leads to just exemplary students. 1775 01:24:07,093 --> 01:24:09,532 Speaker 5: But is it that or is it actually some people 1776 01:24:09,812 --> 01:24:12,772 Speaker 5: some I didn't just take away but longer to mature 1777 01:24:12,933 --> 01:24:15,133 Speaker 5: and sometimes take away bit longer to work it out. 1778 01:24:15,692 --> 01:24:18,652 Speaker 5: So if you have a system that's heared so to 1779 01:24:18,893 --> 01:24:20,532 Speaker 5: manage that, then you. 1780 01:24:20,652 --> 01:24:23,732 Speaker 2: Can see a lot get the best out of every student. 1781 01:24:23,893 --> 01:24:26,972 Speaker 5: Maybe, yeah, absolutely, but it's just taking away more time 1782 01:24:27,093 --> 01:24:29,453 Speaker 5: in managing or working for the individuals. 1783 01:24:30,133 --> 01:24:31,892 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think if you called Julie, yeah, great call. 1784 01:24:31,973 --> 01:24:33,652 Speaker 3: Qologies again for Tyler's poor men. 1785 01:24:34,173 --> 01:24:35,893 Speaker 2: I'm going to hang of the clock.

I know 1788 01:24:40,013 --> 01:24:41,853 Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty ten eighty. 1789 01:24:41,893 --> 01:24:46,572 Speaker 3: Including this text around the crippling problem with school SERT back. 1790 01:24:46,452 --> 01:24:50,052 Speaker 2: In the day you still ZIBB sixteen past three. 1791 01:24:50,532 --> 01:24:53,293 Speaker 3: We're just asking the question, what is the ultimate system? 1792 01:24:53,372 --> 01:24:56,452 Speaker 3: People are saying that NCAA isn't the way, and maybe 1793 01:24:56,572 --> 01:24:59,772 Speaker 3: Cambridge system's too far the other way. What's your ultimate 1794 01:25:00,013 --> 01:25:03,053 Speaker 3: system for your kids at high school? The sex says 1795 01:25:03,093 --> 01:25:05,452 Speaker 3: the problem with school SIRT was that only fifty percent 1796 01:25:05,492 --> 01:25:07,772 Speaker 3: were allowed to pass. Therefore, if ninety percent scored more 1797 01:25:07,812 --> 01:25:10,892 Speaker 3: than fifty sent the forty percent above there allowed were 1798 01:25:11,053 --> 01:25:13,852 Speaker 3: failed even though they had scored a pass. That was 1799 01:25:13,933 --> 01:25:18,572 Speaker 3: called scaling. So I did school SERT and I remember 1800 01:25:18,853 --> 01:25:20,772 Speaker 3: a lot of pressure because you couldn't go on to 1801 01:25:20,853 --> 01:25:23,692 Speaker 3: the next year unles you passed, Yeah, and it was 1802 01:25:24,013 --> 01:25:25,692 Speaker 3: it was just exams at the end of the year. 1803 01:25:26,333 --> 01:25:28,852 Speaker 3: And I thought that I could understand that, and it 1804 01:25:28,893 --> 01:25:30,852 Speaker 3: put a lot of pressure on and it made me 1805 01:25:30,893 --> 01:25:33,213 Speaker 3: step up and actually concentrate because I didn't want to 1806 01:25:33,213 --> 01:25:35,133 Speaker 3: be held back another year, Definitely. I didn't want to 1807 01:25:35,133 --> 01:25:37,732 Speaker 3: be held back. Yeah, So the threat was real, the 1808 01:25:37,853 --> 01:25:40,852 Speaker 3: risks were real. Yeah, And isn't that a representation of 1809 01:25:41,652 --> 01:25:44,452 Speaker 3: the real world? And isn't school getting you ready for 1810 01:25:44,612 --> 01:25:46,812 Speaker 3: the risk and reward of the real world. 1811 01:25:46,973 --> 01:25:48,732 Speaker 2: That was my thinking when I got threatened to be 1812 01:25:48,772 --> 01:25:50,772 Speaker 2: put in the accelerant class, which is the class you 1813 01:25:50,853 --> 01:25:52,532 Speaker 2: get put into if you need to do better in 1814 01:25:52,612 --> 01:25:55,812 Speaker 2: a subject. Because I flunked Mass. That made me get 1815 01:25:55,893 --> 01:25:58,412 Speaker 2: my A into G So I mean they let me 1816 01:25:58,532 --> 01:26:00,893 Speaker 2: carry on because I did okay and some of the 1817 01:26:00,933 --> 01:26:03,532 Speaker 2: other subjects, but Mass. I had to go in front 1818 01:26:03,532 --> 01:26:05,852 Speaker 2: of the principal with mum and he said, You're going 1819 01:26:05,933 --> 01:26:08,253 Speaker 2: to have to go into the accelerant class unless you 1820 01:26:08,492 --> 01:26:11,692 Speaker 2: can step up, and thankfully I did the next. 1821 01:26:11,933 --> 01:26:13,692 Speaker 3: And would you have you didn't want to go into 1822 01:26:13,692 --> 01:26:15,812 Speaker 3: that class because what you would have felt shame? 1823 01:26:16,013 --> 01:26:18,452 Speaker 2: Yep, one hundred Yeah, it was. That was a hard 1824 01:26:18,492 --> 01:26:20,412 Speaker 2: thing in secondary school. There was a different name for it. 1825 01:26:20,692 --> 01:26:22,492 Speaker 2: I can't say that on air, but we all remember 1826 01:26:22,532 --> 01:26:24,692 Speaker 2: those classes and what it was an all boys school 1827 01:26:24,732 --> 01:26:26,452 Speaker 2: and of course, yeah, the fellas that were in that 1828 01:26:26,532 --> 01:26:28,932 Speaker 2: class kept it very quiet because there was shame involved. 1829 01:26:29,133 --> 01:26:33,652 Speaker 3: Yes, so maybe those days are too extreme, but really 1830 01:26:33,732 --> 01:26:36,693 Speaker 3: I guess what I'm saying, maybe there's somewhere between Cambridge 1831 01:26:36,812 --> 01:26:39,612 Speaker 3: and NCIA and maybe that's what the government's looking for. 1832 01:26:39,893 --> 01:26:40,013 Speaker 1: Matt. 1833 01:26:40,213 --> 01:26:42,213 Speaker 3: You are suggesting that people who are great at passing 1834 01:26:42,213 --> 01:26:46,012 Speaker 3: exams are the best and smartest. Those days are gone. Yeah, 1835 01:26:46,532 --> 01:26:52,253 Speaker 3: but NCAA seems to be too far the other way 1836 01:26:52,333 --> 01:26:55,892 Speaker 3: I would say, I mean, if you study your subject 1837 01:26:56,572 --> 01:26:59,492 Speaker 3: and you know it, then you can pass the exam exactly, 1838 01:27:00,732 --> 01:27:04,532 Speaker 3: you can. So it's not that you're the brightest, but 1839 01:27:04,692 --> 01:27:07,692 Speaker 3: you've got a definite time and a place that you 1840 01:27:07,893 --> 01:27:11,812 Speaker 3: have to know the subject, and that's the exam. It's 1841 01:27:11,893 --> 01:27:15,293 Speaker 3: not doing a little bit here, doing some papers here, 1842 01:27:15,532 --> 01:27:18,533 Speaker 3: moving things around the classes there and there, and massaging 1843 01:27:18,572 --> 01:27:21,572 Speaker 3: your way through. So maybe there's something. There's somewhere in 1844 01:27:21,612 --> 01:27:21,932 Speaker 3: the middle. 1845 01:27:22,093 --> 01:27:24,852 Speaker 2: It's retention and knowledge across the year. Afternoon NCAA. 1846 01:27:24,933 --> 01:27:27,133 Speaker 3: As a joke, my example, my son and best friend 1847 01:27:27,173 --> 01:27:29,492 Speaker 3: at different high schools in Auckland did the same subjects. 1848 01:27:29,532 --> 01:27:31,933 Speaker 3: They would compare results in what one school considered an 1849 01:27:32,053 --> 01:27:35,173 Speaker 3: excellence would only be an achieved at the other. No 1850 01:27:35,293 --> 01:27:37,133 Speaker 3: consistency at all. And yeah, that's a problem with it 1851 01:27:37,253 --> 01:27:41,492 Speaker 3: not being outside the school, being done within the school, 1852 01:27:42,093 --> 01:27:43,572 Speaker 3: I think could be a bit of a problem rather 1853 01:27:43,692 --> 01:27:45,933 Speaker 3: being external examine and examinations. 1854 01:27:46,612 --> 01:27:47,652 Speaker 2: Grant your thoughts on this. 1855 01:27:48,973 --> 01:27:51,973 Speaker 18: Yeah, hi guys, second time you are calling into talk 1856 01:27:52,053 --> 01:27:53,612 Speaker 18: back radio. So you've touched the nerve. 1857 01:27:53,452 --> 01:27:54,892 Speaker 2: With me on this topic, Well, come in. 1858 01:27:56,412 --> 01:28:00,852 Speaker 18: For I'm an engineer for my SINS. I spent six 1859 01:28:00,973 --> 01:28:03,772 Speaker 18: years lecturing and engineering it at probably what you call 1860 01:28:03,853 --> 01:28:08,732 Speaker 18: a second tier university, and I rocked in the class 1861 01:28:09,013 --> 01:28:12,293 Speaker 18: and what I discovered was that the students basically couldn't 1862 01:28:12,293 --> 01:28:17,093 Speaker 18: do mass and this concerned me. I would give them 1863 01:28:17,293 --> 01:28:19,492 Speaker 18: what I would consider to be a year simple year 1864 01:28:19,652 --> 01:28:24,293 Speaker 18: ten mass test, six questions in ten minutes, and two 1865 01:28:24,372 --> 01:28:28,133 Speaker 18: thirds of the class couldn't do it, and I was astounded. 1866 01:28:29,053 --> 01:28:33,053 Speaker 18: We held on file their school transcripts, so I went 1867 01:28:33,093 --> 01:28:36,173 Speaker 18: and looked up the transcripts of the students that couldn't 1868 01:28:36,213 --> 01:28:40,653 Speaker 18: do the test, and what I discovered was that the schools, 1869 01:28:42,173 --> 01:28:45,133 Speaker 18: and it wasn't the top schools that were doing this. 1870 01:28:45,452 --> 01:28:47,492 Speaker 18: There was schools that you would regard as being not 1871 01:28:47,612 --> 01:28:52,053 Speaker 18: top schools. They would not have let the students sit 1872 01:28:52,812 --> 01:29:02,333 Speaker 18: external papers. So to simplified, if mass is divided into multiplication, division, addition, 1873 01:29:02,412 --> 01:29:05,732 Speaker 18: and subtraction, the students would only have done the addition 1874 01:29:05,853 --> 01:29:09,612 Speaker 18: of subtraction papers, which were internal and they'd pass those, 1875 01:29:09,933 --> 01:29:12,572 Speaker 18: and they wouldn't even have attempted the balance of the 1876 01:29:12,692 --> 01:29:17,093 Speaker 18: course and the schools are really doing a terrible disservice 1877 01:29:17,213 --> 01:29:22,492 Speaker 18: to these students. And with those internal papers, they would 1878 01:29:22,492 --> 01:29:25,012 Speaker 18: also give them what they call a mock test, which 1879 01:29:25,093 --> 01:29:27,612 Speaker 18: was basically the same test with the numbers slightly different, 1880 01:29:28,253 --> 01:29:30,732 Speaker 18: so that they could practice exactly what they were going 1881 01:29:30,812 --> 01:29:36,532 Speaker 18: to get. And the end result was you had students 1882 01:29:36,612 --> 01:29:38,692 Speaker 18: turning up to do engineering that couldn't do math. 1883 01:29:40,412 --> 01:29:42,492 Speaker 3: Yeah, so that doesn't help anyone. It doesn't help the 1884 01:29:42,812 --> 01:29:45,972 Speaker 3: student because they don't have the truth, and it doesn't 1885 01:29:46,013 --> 01:29:49,732 Speaker 3: help you teach them to move forward to learn to 1886 01:29:49,933 --> 01:29:53,612 Speaker 3: do something they need math for. So yeah, sort of 1887 01:29:53,692 --> 01:29:56,412 Speaker 3: massage in the truth. I guess that's what I've been 1888 01:29:56,452 --> 01:29:58,692 Speaker 3: trying to say is massage in the truth doesn't help anyone. 1889 01:29:59,053 --> 01:30:00,652 Speaker 3: You need to know what you can do so you 1890 01:30:00,732 --> 01:30:03,732 Speaker 3: can make decisions about your life and where to put 1891 01:30:03,772 --> 01:30:04,372 Speaker 3: your energies. 1892 01:30:05,293 --> 01:30:05,492 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1893 01:30:05,532 --> 01:30:07,452 Speaker 18: So I'm of an age that I did school see 1894 01:30:07,492 --> 01:30:11,932 Speaker 18: you an bursary, and I did very well at that system. 1895 01:30:11,973 --> 01:30:14,532 Speaker 18: I went onto university and got an honest degree in 1896 01:30:14,572 --> 01:30:17,652 Speaker 18: engineering and in a postgraduate degree, and so that system 1897 01:30:17,692 --> 01:30:20,892 Speaker 18: worked very well for me. My son went through NCAA. 1898 01:30:21,053 --> 01:30:24,093 Speaker 18: I think NCAA is a really good system. You need 1899 01:30:24,173 --> 01:30:29,372 Speaker 18: to understand how the achieved merit and excellence works, and 1900 01:30:29,572 --> 01:30:32,492 Speaker 18: obviously I'm focused on the STEM subjects, but it needs 1901 01:30:32,532 --> 01:30:36,452 Speaker 18: some tweaking to stop the gaming of the system. 1902 01:30:37,412 --> 01:30:38,812 Speaker 2: Is there any way that it could be complete? 1903 01:30:38,853 --> 01:30:41,412 Speaker 3: Do you think the fact that it's the schools have 1904 01:30:41,532 --> 01:30:44,133 Speaker 3: that power that you're talking about internally, which you know 1905 01:30:44,293 --> 01:30:48,293 Speaker 3: they may have motivations around their own personal numbers to 1906 01:30:48,532 --> 01:30:51,173 Speaker 3: massage things. Do you think there's a way it could 1907 01:30:51,173 --> 01:30:55,852 Speaker 3: all be externally? You know all the grading has done 1908 01:30:55,893 --> 01:30:57,572 Speaker 3: externally well. 1909 01:30:57,452 --> 01:30:59,652 Speaker 18: It wasn't out in my day, so I think that 1910 01:30:59,732 --> 01:31:02,972 Speaker 18: would be that would be something. Do feel slightly sorry 1911 01:31:03,013 --> 01:31:04,812 Speaker 18: for those schools because they get beaten up in the 1912 01:31:04,893 --> 01:31:08,133 Speaker 18: media about their results, right, so they have found a 1913 01:31:08,173 --> 01:31:13,093 Speaker 18: way to put on their website their pass rates for 1914 01:31:13,173 --> 01:31:15,772 Speaker 18: the various level of levels of NCAA. But when you 1915 01:31:16,013 --> 01:31:20,052 Speaker 18: drilled down into it, it's it's not a very pretty site. 1916 01:31:20,333 --> 01:31:23,013 Speaker 18: The sad thing is that those kids that failed the 1917 01:31:23,452 --> 01:31:27,412 Speaker 18: engineering or sorry, failed that little test I gave them 1918 01:31:28,492 --> 01:31:31,812 Speaker 18: should never have been doing engineering exactly university they. 1919 01:31:31,732 --> 01:31:32,412 Speaker 13: Would have made. 1920 01:31:32,612 --> 01:31:36,612 Speaker 18: They would have made the best plumbers and builders and 1921 01:31:36,933 --> 01:31:41,652 Speaker 18: electricians exactly who we're now importing those people from overseas. 1922 01:31:43,013 --> 01:31:45,852 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, because they haven't been given the information they 1923 01:31:45,933 --> 01:31:48,933 Speaker 3: need to make the decisions about their life. And you know, 1924 01:31:49,133 --> 01:31:50,812 Speaker 3: so many people you were going to, so many people 1925 01:31:50,853 --> 01:31:53,492 Speaker 3: that text through that said that they failed school. Certain 1926 01:31:53,572 --> 01:31:56,932 Speaker 3: that made them make decisions in their life to lead 1927 01:31:57,053 --> 01:31:59,492 Speaker 3: us anyway. So what would be the basic changes you 1928 01:31:59,492 --> 01:32:00,453 Speaker 3: would make Grant. 1929 01:32:00,732 --> 01:32:06,772 Speaker 18: Around Yeah, external assessment that you have to do all 1930 01:32:06,973 --> 01:32:09,372 Speaker 18: the units and you have to tempt allar units. So 1931 01:32:09,492 --> 01:32:11,612 Speaker 18: the other the gaming that goes on at the top schools, 1932 01:32:11,772 --> 01:32:13,973 Speaker 18: one of which my son went to, is that the 1933 01:32:14,093 --> 01:32:16,372 Speaker 18: top students have stood going really well and I've got 1934 01:32:16,412 --> 01:32:19,293 Speaker 18: an excellent average, and they go into the exam at 1935 01:32:19,333 --> 01:32:21,253 Speaker 18: the end of the year to sit your external standard 1936 01:32:21,492 --> 01:32:24,093 Speaker 18: and they pick up, say the calculus paper, and they 1937 01:32:24,173 --> 01:32:26,333 Speaker 18: look at it and it's very difficult, and they think 1938 01:32:26,372 --> 01:32:28,732 Speaker 18: it's going to be a challenge. They're instructed by the 1939 01:32:28,812 --> 01:32:30,293 Speaker 18: school to screw it up and throw it in the 1940 01:32:30,333 --> 01:32:32,812 Speaker 18: pin and walk out of the exam because it will 1941 01:32:32,893 --> 01:32:37,612 Speaker 18: drag their average down. So I think that that really 1942 01:32:37,732 --> 01:32:38,253 Speaker 18: needs to be. 1943 01:32:40,173 --> 01:32:43,972 Speaker 2: The head What about what about you go Grant? 1944 01:32:44,013 --> 01:32:48,053 Speaker 18: Sorry, Yeah, the basic structure of it. I was a 1945 01:32:48,133 --> 01:32:50,213 Speaker 18: bit wary of it until my son came home with 1946 01:32:50,333 --> 01:32:53,092 Speaker 18: sort of a mess thing and pointed to the excellence 1947 01:32:53,213 --> 01:32:54,973 Speaker 18: question and I had to go away and research it 1948 01:32:55,053 --> 01:32:57,412 Speaker 18: before I could figure out how to do it. So 1949 01:32:57,532 --> 01:33:00,852 Speaker 18: I think the basic structure is fine. There just needs 1950 01:33:00,853 --> 01:33:03,652 Speaker 18: to be more those tweaks and more understanding of how 1951 01:33:03,692 --> 01:33:04,532 Speaker 18: it's all put together. 1952 01:33:05,173 --> 01:33:07,572 Speaker 3: Do you think that's some advantage in getting rid of 1953 01:33:07,732 --> 01:33:11,253 Speaker 3: excellence and merit and these wide I know, you know 1954 01:33:12,013 --> 01:33:17,052 Speaker 3: there was more divisions of A plus as the more divisions, 1955 01:33:17,133 --> 01:33:19,692 Speaker 3: because what if you're rocking along and you're at the 1956 01:33:20,013 --> 01:33:23,293 Speaker 3: high end of merit and you're and if there's a 1957 01:33:23,333 --> 01:33:26,532 Speaker 3: fifteen point range in it, then you don't know how 1958 01:33:27,253 --> 01:33:28,692 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, You're not getting the reward 1959 01:33:28,812 --> 01:33:32,012 Speaker 3: you are for being close to excellence. You're one percent 1960 01:33:32,093 --> 01:33:35,852 Speaker 3: off excellence because because the you just get us merit. 1961 01:33:37,372 --> 01:33:43,333 Speaker 18: Yeah, there's some merit in that for some students. Equally, 1962 01:33:43,532 --> 01:33:45,053 Speaker 18: if you take the mess paper, which is what I 1963 01:33:45,173 --> 01:33:47,253 Speaker 18: was sort of focused on, it's very clear when you 1964 01:33:47,372 --> 01:33:49,852 Speaker 18: open up the paper that this question and this question 1965 01:33:50,133 --> 01:33:53,013 Speaker 18: are the achieved questions, and if you're not very good 1966 01:33:53,013 --> 01:33:56,532 Speaker 18: at MASS, you can identify those questions and examine focus 1967 01:33:56,612 --> 01:33:58,812 Speaker 18: on those A question and at least walk out with 1968 01:33:59,013 --> 01:34:02,293 Speaker 18: and achieved, and then the merrit questions are very easily identifiable, 1969 01:34:02,933 --> 01:34:06,612 Speaker 18: and then the excellence questions are identifiable. So within the paper, right, 1970 01:34:06,692 --> 01:34:10,093 Speaker 18: if you're not very good at mass and focus on 1971 01:34:10,253 --> 01:34:13,412 Speaker 18: the two questions in the paper and try and pass those. 1972 01:34:13,772 --> 01:34:13,892 Speaker 10: Right. 1973 01:34:14,973 --> 01:34:17,532 Speaker 2: But then this all seems quite cruel. For you're talking 1974 01:34:17,532 --> 01:34:21,253 Speaker 2: about engineering school at varsity and then medical school, and 1975 01:34:21,293 --> 01:34:23,412 Speaker 2: I've got questions about how they figure out who are 1976 01:34:23,452 --> 01:34:25,612 Speaker 2: going to be the top achievers and get through medical school. 1977 01:34:25,652 --> 01:34:27,732 Speaker 2: But that seems to be the point where these kids 1978 01:34:28,013 --> 01:34:30,612 Speaker 2: get a rude awakening, is that they're passed in CEA 1979 01:34:30,893 --> 01:34:34,852 Speaker 2: through gaming the system. Then they get into varsity and realize, shit, 1980 01:34:35,093 --> 01:34:38,293 Speaker 2: I you know, I do not have the skills to 1981 01:34:39,013 --> 01:34:40,812 Speaker 2: move any further. And that would be a real blow 1982 01:34:40,853 --> 01:34:41,612 Speaker 2: for a lot of these kids. 1983 01:34:42,532 --> 01:34:45,892 Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean, how long have you got I said, 1984 01:34:45,933 --> 01:34:48,612 Speaker 18: I was lectured at a second tier university. I got 1985 01:34:48,612 --> 01:34:56,333 Speaker 18: my PhD from a first tier university. The students, basically, 1986 01:34:56,412 --> 01:34:58,572 Speaker 18: if they could tick the box to say the university 1987 01:34:58,612 --> 01:35:01,173 Speaker 18: will get some money from the government for the course, 1988 01:35:01,293 --> 01:35:05,973 Speaker 18: they let them in. Yeah, and it's a bums on 1989 01:35:06,053 --> 01:35:09,733 Speaker 18: seat funding model, and that's what's that's where the universities 1990 01:35:09,853 --> 01:35:10,572 Speaker 18: are to blame. 1991 01:35:10,893 --> 01:35:13,772 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's that's a problem as well. This teacher says, 1992 01:35:13,772 --> 01:35:16,253 Speaker 3: I'm a math teacher. This teacher says, this text to 1993 01:35:16,293 --> 01:35:18,213 Speaker 3: says I'm a math teacher. And the previous call is 1994 01:35:18,253 --> 01:35:20,572 Speaker 3: completely incorrect. It is not the school's decision whether a 1995 01:35:20,652 --> 01:35:22,932 Speaker 3: student sits the externals. It is up to the student. 1996 01:35:23,333 --> 01:35:25,492 Speaker 3: A school teacher, to the best of their abilities, cannot 1997 01:35:25,492 --> 01:35:28,412 Speaker 3: make a student go to an external We do our best. 1998 01:35:28,853 --> 01:35:31,852 Speaker 3: He has no idea about how it works. Okay, right, guys, 1999 01:35:31,933 --> 01:35:34,213 Speaker 3: the guys correct. My daughter was told she couldn't sit 2000 01:35:34,293 --> 01:35:36,812 Speaker 3: the maths exam because she needed more help and they 2001 01:35:36,853 --> 01:35:39,093 Speaker 3: didn't want their numbers not passing to show up. So 2002 01:35:39,213 --> 01:35:40,892 Speaker 3: we're getting some contradictory messages here. 2003 01:35:41,013 --> 01:35:44,173 Speaker 2: Certainly it is twenty six to three bag visually. 2004 01:35:47,772 --> 01:35:51,452 Speaker 1: Matt Heathan Tyler Adams afternoons call oh, eight hundred eighty 2005 01:35:51,532 --> 01:35:53,372 Speaker 1: ten eighty on used talk ZB. 2006 01:35:53,372 --> 01:35:55,812 Speaker 2: Twenty nine past three. So many texts on this one. 2007 01:35:56,133 --> 01:35:56,372 Speaker 7: You know. 2008 01:35:56,732 --> 01:36:01,173 Speaker 3: Unsurprisingly, we haven't solved the NCAA situation and our hour 2009 01:36:01,293 --> 01:36:03,532 Speaker 3: on talkback radio, but we've given a good, good go. 2010 01:36:04,013 --> 01:36:07,933 Speaker 3: People have been able to have voiced their opinion. So 2011 01:36:08,053 --> 01:36:10,732 Speaker 3: let's with some texts here. NCAA should be bind and 2012 01:36:10,853 --> 01:36:15,493 Speaker 3: we should adopt Cambridge. I have taught both, no comparison. 2013 01:36:15,612 --> 01:36:15,893 Speaker 2: There you go. 2014 01:36:16,652 --> 01:36:20,133 Speaker 3: This teaches, this text says I teach a diploma course. 2015 01:36:20,293 --> 01:36:24,053 Speaker 3: And the difference and knowledge of NCAA and students who 2016 01:36:24,093 --> 01:36:27,053 Speaker 3: have had school set or more focus exams as chalk 2017 01:36:27,133 --> 01:36:29,572 Speaker 3: and cheese. They don't even really know how to time manage, 2018 01:36:30,013 --> 01:36:33,012 Speaker 3: let alone access of computer or even spell properly. Don't 2019 01:36:33,053 --> 01:36:35,452 Speaker 3: even know how to put commas and paragraphs that take 2020 01:36:35,532 --> 01:36:38,812 Speaker 3: them back to the basics. Blah blah blah. Yeah, I 2021 01:36:38,893 --> 01:36:42,412 Speaker 3: get what you're saying here, but ironically, there's a lot 2022 01:36:42,452 --> 01:36:43,732 Speaker 3: of errors in your text message. 2023 01:36:43,893 --> 01:36:44,892 Speaker 2: Too many commas in that one. 2024 01:36:44,933 --> 01:36:47,253 Speaker 3: I'm not blaming you. I'm sure it's spell check or something. 2025 01:36:48,412 --> 01:36:51,412 Speaker 3: As an employer, I need to know the capabilities otherwise 2026 01:36:51,492 --> 01:36:53,692 Speaker 3: I end up with the problem, and we have having 2027 01:36:53,772 --> 01:36:56,253 Speaker 3: to deal with more and more. Let's have some honesty 2028 01:36:56,333 --> 01:36:59,052 Speaker 3: for all parties and lean into helping and directing people 2029 01:36:59,093 --> 01:37:02,653 Speaker 3: to help themselves. Sometimes parents also need to take responsibility 2030 01:37:02,692 --> 01:37:05,213 Speaker 3: to help their kids thrive. It can't always be other 2031 01:37:05,213 --> 01:37:07,412 Speaker 3: people's issue to deal with. Oh my god, sixty five 2032 01:37:07,452 --> 01:37:10,652 Speaker 3: to eighty percent waters going on. Yeah, good text My 2033 01:37:10,853 --> 01:37:13,293 Speaker 3: daughter was told not to sit English exam because she's 2034 01:37:13,293 --> 01:37:14,692 Speaker 3: already had literacy. 2035 01:37:14,893 --> 01:37:17,213 Speaker 2: And there's hundreds and hundreds of others and so. 2036 01:37:17,213 --> 01:37:19,652 Speaker 3: We've got teachers saying that they don't do that, and 2037 01:37:19,732 --> 01:37:21,892 Speaker 3: then lots of parents saying that that's what's happened. 2038 01:37:21,973 --> 01:37:24,572 Speaker 2: Yeah, So the debate will carry on and we'll see 2039 01:37:24,612 --> 01:37:28,012 Speaker 2: what Minister Stanford has to say about NCAA going forward. 2040 01:37:28,412 --> 01:37:30,333 Speaker 2: But thank you to everybody who called and text on 2041 01:37:30,372 --> 01:37:32,573 Speaker 2: that right, looking forward to this discussion. 2042 01:37:32,772 --> 01:37:36,692 Speaker 3: It's what everyone's been talking about. Yes, like the CEO 2043 01:37:37,372 --> 01:37:43,052 Speaker 3: and the HR lady being caught at the Coldplay concert. 2044 01:37:43,572 --> 01:37:48,173 Speaker 3: But our question is what's the price for cheating? What 2045 01:37:48,612 --> 01:37:51,253 Speaker 3: is the price? What should the penalty be for being 2046 01:37:51,293 --> 01:37:53,732 Speaker 3: caught cheating? Personally, I find the whole thing pretty funny 2047 01:37:54,133 --> 01:37:59,732 Speaker 3: and amusing, but I wouldn't care if my CEO was 2048 01:37:59,812 --> 01:38:02,253 Speaker 3: caught cheating with the HR person. I wouldn't think they'd 2049 01:38:02,253 --> 01:38:05,333 Speaker 3: need to step down. I mean, the punishment is within 2050 01:38:05,412 --> 01:38:06,333 Speaker 3: your family, right. 2051 01:38:06,492 --> 01:38:09,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, Oh, eight hundred is the number to call.

Let's be honest, everyone's talking 2063 01:38:37,013 --> 01:38:37,812 Speaker 3: about it exactly. 2064 01:38:38,492 --> 01:38:40,412 Speaker 2: One hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number to call. 2065 01:38:40,492 --> 01:38:41,812 Speaker 2: Headlines with Raylene coming up. 2066 01:38:44,053 --> 01:38:47,973 Speaker 10: Jew's talks'd be headlines with blue bubble taxis It's no 2067 01:38:48,133 --> 01:38:51,253 Speaker 10: trouble with a blue bubble.

This one has just 2090 01:40:13,333 --> 01:40:17,333 Speaker 3: gone absolutely crazy, and I think it's primarily their reaction. Yep, 2091 01:40:17,732 --> 01:40:21,852 Speaker 3: so the CEO and the head of HR or if 2092 01:40:21,933 --> 01:40:24,652 Speaker 3: someone a lady that works in agr up on the 2093 01:40:24,732 --> 01:40:28,293 Speaker 3: kisscam at a Coldplay concert camera comes on them, they 2094 01:40:28,572 --> 01:40:30,812 Speaker 3: jump for cover like they've been shot at there on 2095 01:40:30,853 --> 01:40:34,652 Speaker 3: the head there's a sniper.

Yep, clearly having an affair because everything has 2098 01:40:42,293 --> 01:40:45,772 Speaker 3: blown up and the CEO has stepped down from his position. 2099 01:40:46,013 --> 01:40:48,772 Speaker 2: Yep, resigned from his position. We don't know what's happening 2100 01:40:48,812 --> 01:40:51,612 Speaker 2: to the head of HR at this stage, but as 2101 01:40:51,692 --> 01:40:55,173 Speaker 2: we mentioned, this is a story that's gripped the entire world, 2102 01:40:55,492 --> 01:40:59,492 Speaker 2: and the pylon and the humorous side of things, as 2103 01:40:59,532 --> 01:41:02,253 Speaker 2: the Internet tends to do, has been significant over the 2104 01:41:02,333 --> 01:41:04,572 Speaker 2: course of the weekend. But the question we've got for 2105 01:41:04,612 --> 01:41:07,173 Speaker 2: you is what should be the punishment for being caught 2106 01:41:07,452 --> 01:41:10,972 Speaker 2: having an affair a place like a Coldplay concert. Yeah, 2107 01:41:11,173 --> 01:41:13,053 Speaker 2: I mean, has it got anything to do with your 2108 01:41:13,093 --> 01:41:17,013 Speaker 2: employment at all? I would say no.

If someone cheats, then 2154 01:43:37,812 --> 01:43:40,173 Speaker 3: there is some sort of breakdown of the relationship and 2155 01:43:40,253 --> 01:43:42,652 Speaker 3: someone is doing something very wrong.

This 2193 01:45:19,013 --> 01:45:22,053 Speaker 3: person says they should be tired and feathered and then 2194 01:45:22,133 --> 01:45:22,492 Speaker 3: tase it. 2195 01:45:23,293 --> 01:45:25,572 Speaker 2: I'm sure that would be preferable. But what's happened to them? 2196 01:45:26,013 --> 01:45:28,572 Speaker 3: I reckon if they could choose that, they could choose 2197 01:45:28,572 --> 01:45:34,093 Speaker 3: a tasering over the public shaming. Yeah, just even a 2198 01:45:34,133 --> 01:45:35,732 Speaker 3: couple of wounders all the way down here in New 2199 01:45:35,772 --> 01:45:38,572 Speaker 3: Zealand on one hundred and eighty, ten to eighty talking 2200 01:45:38,612 --> 01:45:40,173 Speaker 3: about it, Sharon, Welcome to the show. 2201 01:45:41,572 --> 01:45:41,692 Speaker 5: Hi. 2202 01:45:42,213 --> 01:45:47,333 Speaker 11: Two things in this particular case. You know, he's been 2203 01:45:47,372 --> 01:45:49,932 Speaker 11: intimate with or having an affair with somebody who reports 2204 01:45:50,013 --> 01:45:52,692 Speaker 11: to him, and that adds a whole different kind of 2205 01:45:52,812 --> 01:45:57,452 Speaker 11: layer of complexity to the workplace and his potential future 2206 01:45:57,492 --> 01:45:59,933 Speaker 11: decision making and all of those sorts of things. So 2207 01:46:00,933 --> 01:46:03,852 Speaker 11: I believe losing his job's probably been the right thing 2208 01:46:03,933 --> 01:46:06,173 Speaker 11: on that basis, because how could the board trust him 2209 01:46:06,253 --> 01:46:09,732 Speaker 11: to make balanced visions in the interests of the business 2210 01:46:09,893 --> 01:46:13,053 Speaker 11: rather than himself on that basis. But the other thing 2211 01:46:13,133 --> 01:46:15,812 Speaker 11: I wanted to say is, you know, I personally have 2212 01:46:15,933 --> 01:46:17,932 Speaker 11: never been into it with the work, colleague. I've seen 2213 01:46:18,013 --> 01:46:21,053 Speaker 11: thinking of people who have been, and it's usually the 2214 01:46:21,133 --> 01:46:25,372 Speaker 11: woman who loses, right, Ultimately, it's her career who's compromised. 2215 01:46:25,412 --> 01:46:26,253 Speaker 11: And it's really great. 2216 01:46:26,253 --> 01:46:30,732 Speaker 3: Really, I mean, well, I think it's generally the man 2217 01:46:30,812 --> 01:46:31,932 Speaker 3: that loses these days. 2218 01:46:32,732 --> 01:46:35,372 Speaker 17: I mean, I know, a bit longer than the two. 2219 01:46:35,572 --> 01:46:37,132 Speaker 11: Maybe I'm going back too fast. 2220 01:46:37,293 --> 01:46:40,732 Speaker 3: Yeah, But when you say that they're on that she 2221 01:46:40,933 --> 01:46:44,492 Speaker 3: reported to him, do you think that within an office relationship, 2222 01:46:44,572 --> 01:46:48,372 Speaker 3: let's just say that neither of them have partners, would 2223 01:46:48,412 --> 01:46:51,452 Speaker 3: it be okay then for you? Or do you think 2224 01:46:51,492 --> 01:46:53,772 Speaker 3: that the power and balance is such that he shouldn't 2225 01:46:53,812 --> 01:46:55,772 Speaker 3: be seeing her, whether she he's got a wife or not. 2226 01:46:56,933 --> 01:47:01,452 Speaker 11: Absolutely so, does that mean she's a power and balance? 2227 01:47:01,532 --> 01:47:04,972 Speaker 3: So should CEOs only be able to date CEOs at work? 2228 01:47:07,933 --> 01:47:10,612 Speaker 11: You know, it's not just about the two of them, 2229 01:47:10,692 --> 01:47:13,293 Speaker 11: it's about everybody else who works in the company, So 2230 01:47:13,772 --> 01:47:18,253 Speaker 11: it's for you know, So how other people view any 2231 01:47:18,372 --> 01:47:23,012 Speaker 11: special relationship that may compromise their roles or their careers 2232 01:47:23,133 --> 01:47:24,612 Speaker 11: or decisions that impacted them. 2233 01:47:24,812 --> 01:47:26,972 Speaker 2: What do you think about her being from HR? 2234 01:47:27,572 --> 01:47:30,812 Speaker 3: Surely she has been in a situation before which she 2235 01:47:30,893 --> 01:47:33,772 Speaker 3: said she's had to deal with this, so there's a 2236 01:47:33,812 --> 01:47:36,772 Speaker 3: certain amount of hypocrisy she You would think, of all 2237 01:47:36,812 --> 01:47:40,052 Speaker 3: people would be schooled up on the risks of going 2238 01:47:40,093 --> 01:47:42,652 Speaker 3: to a cold place, play concert and cuddling up with 2239 01:47:42,692 --> 01:47:43,812 Speaker 3: the CEO that's married. 2240 01:47:44,933 --> 01:47:47,013 Speaker 11: I'll be tactful and say that it would appear to 2241 01:47:47,093 --> 01:47:48,612 Speaker 11: me that her judgment was flawed. 2242 01:47:49,372 --> 01:47:51,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, thank you for your call. 2243 01:47:51,253 --> 01:47:51,532 Speaker 3: Sharing. 2244 01:47:51,612 --> 01:47:54,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, good call.

If he had, if he was genuinely courageous, 2261 01:48:40,412 --> 01:48:44,093 Speaker 5: he would have stood his ground, carried on cuddling her, smiling, 2262 01:48:44,612 --> 01:48:47,173 Speaker 5: and Chris Martin would have moved on.

Surely she's a powerful woman 2278 01:49:32,213 --> 01:49:34,492 Speaker 3: with her own life and her own ability to make 2279 01:49:34,572 --> 01:49:37,133 Speaker 3: decisions precisely, But the. 2280 01:49:37,253 --> 01:49:41,133 Speaker 5: Power and balance between them is such that he does 2281 01:49:41,372 --> 01:49:46,053 Speaker 5: have the power to end her employment and in that. 2282 01:49:46,173 --> 01:49:49,892 Speaker 3: Situation, but if you're an HR, you have the power 2283 01:49:49,973 --> 01:49:52,333 Speaker 3: to end people's employment as well, I mean, if you're 2284 01:49:52,333 --> 01:49:52,772 Speaker 3: an HR. 2285 01:49:53,333 --> 01:49:57,452 Speaker 5: But if she reports to him, she is in a 2286 01:49:57,532 --> 01:50:02,173 Speaker 5: position where if she ended the relationship suddenly she might 2287 01:50:02,253 --> 01:50:03,452 Speaker 5: find herself out of work. 2288 01:50:03,652 --> 01:50:08,293 Speaker 3: If it was a female CEO with a male HR employer, 2289 01:50:08,452 --> 01:50:11,293 Speaker 3: you'd still just just the same. 2290 01:50:12,372 --> 01:50:14,732 Speaker 5: Just as sad. It's a power thing. 2291 01:50:15,093 --> 01:50:17,133 Speaker 3: So who can who can? Who can who can have 2292 01:50:17,532 --> 01:50:19,772 Speaker 3: Let's just say, I mean, I was going to ask 2293 01:50:19,812 --> 01:50:22,133 Speaker 3: the question Linda, who can have an affair with who? 2294 01:50:22,333 --> 01:50:26,652 Speaker 3: And work? So maybe let's let's let's take away the 2295 01:50:26,692 --> 01:50:28,812 Speaker 3: affair part of it. So who do you think can 2296 01:50:28,933 --> 01:50:32,852 Speaker 3: have a relationship with who in a workplace? 2297 01:50:32,973 --> 01:50:34,213 Speaker 5: Do they have to be they have to be on 2298 01:50:34,293 --> 01:50:37,772 Speaker 5: the same level, not necessarily if they're in a situation 2299 01:50:38,013 --> 01:50:41,692 Speaker 5: like that. If you have a senior executive who is 2300 01:50:41,893 --> 01:50:44,892 Speaker 5: free to have a relationship and meet someone at work. 2301 01:50:45,412 --> 01:50:48,572 Speaker 5: The sensible thing was if it were serious, one of 2302 01:50:48,612 --> 01:50:49,812 Speaker 5: them would change jobs. 2303 01:50:50,372 --> 01:50:53,772 Speaker 2: Mm hmm. So you're so the a fair side of 2304 01:50:53,812 --> 01:50:55,652 Speaker 2: things doesn't even come into it for you, Linda. You're 2305 01:50:55,732 --> 01:50:57,973 Speaker 2: just saying on a power and balance, even if these 2306 01:50:58,013 --> 01:51:03,772 Speaker 2: two individuals were single, you'd still see an issue with it. Absolutely, Okay, 2307 01:51:04,412 --> 01:51:05,213 Speaker 2: that's interesting. 2308 01:51:06,053 --> 01:51:08,213 Speaker 3: I just think that women are more powerful than that. 2309 01:51:09,013 --> 01:51:11,452 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, that's that's my thinking is. And I'm 2310 01:51:11,452 --> 01:51:13,652 Speaker 2: glad you asked that question. But someone in a senior 2311 01:51:13,692 --> 01:51:16,133 Speaker 2: executive role, it doesn't really matter what their gender is. 2312 01:51:16,293 --> 01:51:19,293 Speaker 2: She is the head of HR, she's intelligent in her 2313 01:51:19,333 --> 01:51:22,572 Speaker 2: own right, and it's seemed by all accounts consensual. And 2314 01:51:22,612 --> 01:51:25,972 Speaker 2: if she wasn't happy with it, then, as someone who's 2315 01:51:26,013 --> 01:51:28,012 Speaker 2: you know, got a bit of nounced, don't get involved. 2316 01:51:28,412 --> 01:51:31,812 Speaker 2: And you know historically that was how you jumped classes, 2317 01:51:32,612 --> 01:51:36,253 Speaker 2: so you know you married up.
