Do organisations know what their people do?

Do organisations truly understand how their people work? A big question that needed some unpacking and was explored at a recent Workplace Evolutionaries event, led by Tim Allen and Mark Eltringham. Raw audio from the event so includes brief chat about dogs. It explored aspects of how to encourage organisations to explore their understanding in more detail; how questions around productivity (personal and organisational) can hinder that exploration and set you on a different (and difficult) path that might have more to do with presenteeism and control; how trust is still a dominating factor in the decision-making process; are we mistaking hybrid working for rota working and how is it different to flexible working; where best for creativity and innovation; are we entering a time where organisations need to accept more uncertainty in the short-term as it is a complex area of functionality; it’s about the meetings between the meetings and the individual, informal organisational structure to achieve delivery rather than the official hierarchy. And then a wider conversation including a discussion on the idea of the 4-day week and other ideas centred on the new era of work.
