47: Shane Twomey on the Hybrid Workforce

Shane Twomey and Aoife O’Brien speak about the distributed hybrid workforce, focusing on how to manage people in this new world of remote (working from home, wfh) and office working. We cover why it’s important to manage staff on outcomes, not inputs, and how to make that change. Shane speaks about “being deliberate” in your actions, and the three key dynamics within an organisation - social dynamics, power and influence, and creative dynamics. What are you doing to make sure your people are thriving?
