Next Episode: Shifting Culture with Everday Actions

Over centuries work has evolved from a labour some, back breaking manual task to what today some of us refer to as a "cushy office job"!

And we have the invention of machines and technology, a few key players and a pandemic to thank, as the catalysts for this change.

However, some things have very much stayed the same, even though the world we are living and working in today, is very different to the world in which these things were created for.

In today's episode I'm winding back the clock just over 100 years as we start to look at;

The impact of machines and technology on how we work How and why, we work 8hrs and 5 days a week How technology drove our need for workplaces and their design The research on what our workplaces really need to do now and into the future.

This is one of my favourite conversations and I'm so excited to be sharing it with you here today!
