Ep 11: Emotions in the Workplace, Global Remote Work, and Work-Life Balance - Too Good To Be True?

In this episode of MI, we take a look at some of the current trends, that some call idealistic, driving the future of work. A part of being a modern idealist is the balance between our ambition to create an impact in society whilst improving our own quality of life. Sometimes, that refers to financial security, but this time, it's about improving our quality of life.

We challenge ourselves to use the LinkedIn Daily Rundown, one of our regular sources of news, to pick our top three up for discussion.

1. Emotions in the workplace - should we be showing up to work as our full selves? What kind of emotional diversity should we expect from our workplaces?

2. Working remote from anywhere - Airbnb is pioneering a 'work from anywhere' policy with employees so they never have to have rigid office structures again. We discuss what it could mean to be truly global citizens who are free to move about the world in this digitally-connected knowledge economy.

3. Work-life balance - we explore the top and bottom three countries, why they work or don't work, and what it could take for other markets to follow suit.
