Webinar: 28 April 2021, 3-4pm

The Covid-19 pandemic has meant that offices cannot expect to have full occupancy. Employees are no longer expected to be physically present and many have grown accustomed to and value home working. Yet, the office environment has many advantages both for companies trying to sustain team building and those who appreciate working closely for comradeship and creativity. 

This webinar formally launches the second guide in our Flexible Working series. It will address issues around the new hybrid or dispersed way of working where we mix the office and home environments. It will look at the aspects that employers and employees alike need to consider in making the new normal a success under four themes: people, place, processes, and tools.  

Attendees at the webinar will receive a free copy of the guide.

Chair: Simon Collins, Chair, Resilience First

Speakers:

Kizzy Augustin, Partner, Russell-Cooke

Natalie Smith, Associate Principal, Workplace Strategy Director, Perkins&Will

Ian Jones, Former General Manager, Intel Corporation
