This event looks at hybrid working from the perspective of managers and workers.

Hybrid working has become a defining feature of the modern workplace, creating both opportunities and challenges for organisations, managers and employees. This engaging session will explore what makes hybrid working successful, examining the experiences of both leaders and workers and the practical factors that influence its effectiveness.

Drawing on the latest research and real-world examples, Donald will share insights from his recent book, "The Evolution of Hybrid and Remote Working: Transforming Office-Based Jobs". The book explores how workplace practices continue to evolve and highlights the key factors that contribute to effective hybrid working arrangements.

Whether you are leading teams, shaping workplace policy or navigating hybrid working yourself, this session will provide valuable, evidence-based insights to help you better understand and respond to the realities of today's evolving world of work.
