Have you ever wondered why different people work better at different times of the day? Maybe you love to do your most challenging work first thing in the morning or perhaps you’re at your best in the middle of the night. We all experience peaks and troughs over the course of a working day, but knowing how to manage them can make us more productive – and happier.

This episode is a special introduction to Working It, an award-winning podcast from the Financial Times, hosted by Isabel Berwick.

Working It offers expert analysis and key takeaways to help leaders and managers make sense of the big news stories and trends shaping the world of work.
