This week a cohort of 16 leaders and managers wraps up the current run of my ⁠Healthy Hybrid Habits course⁠. As this is the second time I have run this course in this format, I’d like to take this opportunity to reflect on and celebrate what’s been achieved.

In this episode I reflect on the wider context of the course, the social and political context, Digital Productivity Double Speak and AI "Solutions" to Hybrid Working.

Join me for a conversation with special guest Lucy Crompton-Reid for a deep dive into leading a successful distributed organisation. Lucy shares inspiring examples of putting wellbeing at the heart of hybrid working policies and we discuss how working with the open knowledge community has inspired how the organisation operates.
As Chief Executive at Wikimedia UK Lucy led her organisation to successfully adopt hybrid working during the uncertainty of the pandemic and in this episode we explore how practice and policy has evolved since. 

This interview is going to feature in ⁠my upcoming book⁠. Get in touch with me if you'd like to join us for an episode and contribute to the book.
