In this episode, I interview Isabel Berwick, presenter of the award-winning Financial Times' Working It podcast and co-writer of the Working It newsletter.

Isabel's new book The Future-Proof Career: Strategies for thriving at every stage is published this week. We had a brilliant conversation about careers, management and changes in how we work. The book is a great read, so make sure you order a copy!

"Covering topics as wide-ranging as the four-day working week, bridging the workplace generation gap, making sure your company walks its diversity talk, quiet quitting and the great resignation, achieving workplace equality and even micro-dosing for creativity, The Future-Proof Career spreads the word about understanding modern workplaces so we can all have happier, more productive lives."

TALKING POINTS:

• Understanding Ambition: The importance of aligning personal ambition with career advancement.
• The Managerial Journey: The evolving roles of managers and non-managers in career progression.
• Navigating Toxicity: Identifying signs of a toxic workplace and building a healthy organisational culture.
• Work/Life Balance?: The realities of balancing career aspirations with personal commitments.
• Late Career Blooms: Celebrating the potential for growth and reinvention.
