W e’re back with Honest Talks: The Future of Work – a discussion which explores the big issues impacting our experiences of work and the way we interact with others.
A space for open conversation, Honest Talks offers you the chance to explore ideas with others, without fear of condemnation.
Our intention is to facilitate free flowing conversation in an intimate environment – with our panellists and compère leading a discussion rather than dominating the debate.
Honest Talks: The Future of Work will discuss our changing working culture, which has seen the rise in remote team working, four-day working weeks and the multi-job ‘slash career’. With the standard 9 to 5 seemingly a thing of the past, we’ll explore the pros and cons of these alternative models.
Whether you’re a business owner, employee or a freelancer, we’ll be asking you whether flexible working has challenged you and your organisation. Has technology been the enabler you hoped it would be or has it been damaging to collaboration and working culture? And, how do we strike the right balance?
We have gathered a panel with mixed viewpoints in the hope of stimulating a lively discussion. We invite attendees to join us on September 12th from 6.30 until 8pm.
