REPLAY: The Nowhere Office

 I'm on holiday at the moment, but I want to make sure you've got plenty of Recruiting Future content to listen to until I'm back. So for the next two weeks, I'm going to supplement the new interviews being published in July by republishing some of my favourite episodes with conversations you may have missed the first time around. With the debates about hybrid work continuing to rage and many companies forcibly ordering people to return to the office, this week's replay of my interview with author Julia Hobsbawm from last year takes the long-term perspective on the future work the debate badly needs.  In the interview, we discuss: • Reimagining and reframing how we work • The four phases of work since 1945 • How the pandemic has accelerated trends that were already there • The complexity of hybrid • The real challenges with developing the next phase of work • Undoing assumptions and old norms • The challenge for talent acquisition • Autonomy, flexibility, and networks • Thinking strategically to improve wellness and mental health. A full transcript will appear here shortly. Listen to this podcast on Apple Podcasts.
