Designing The Future Of Work Is All About Trade-Offs

When making big changes – whether at work or in life – it’s easy to resort to binary thinking – things must be one way or another. But these decisions needn’t exist at extremes. There’s always a spectrum across which lies the best and most appropriate solution. Take hybrid work, for example.

Different tendencies under pressure.

‘If you’re looking to initiate a collaborative relationship, it would be a mistake to merely hope that good opportunities will kick up or to assume that you’ll be seen as someone with whom others will want to collaborate’

Deb Mashek, author of Collabor(h)ate, is featured in a ReWorked article on Collaboration and Productivity.

How to Become a Trusted Collaborator

All relationships begin somewhere. At some point in time. Somehow. We transition from being strangers to friends. From being neighbors to running buddies. From being single to coupled. Relationship transitions are all around us, including in our professional lives. One relationship transition that’s particularly important in the workplace is the move from being a mere acquaintance to a trusted collaborator.

‘We can all be creative if we follow our curiosity and focus on things we genuinely care about’

Ollie Henderson, author of  Work/Life Flywheel is featured in HRD Connect speaking about how HR leaders can harness the power of the digital age to compliment their own leadership creativity.

Digital HR: Harnessing creative leadership in the digital age – HRD
