Meaningful Work


Listen Later

WFRC PhD candidate Fabien (HR professional turned academic) is in conversation with Professor Michael Tomlinson (Southampton Education School) as they tackle questions related to the concept of Meaningful Work:

  • What even is meaningful work—and how do individuals and society benefit?
  • What happens when work feels hollow or disconnected?
  • And crucially, how can we bring meaning back into the workplace?

From exploring the philosophical foundations to the modern ideas of “bullshit jobs,” and "quiet quitting,", this thoughtful episode blends research, real-world insight, and hopeful musings for the future.
