The Great Reorganisation – can work-from-anywhere policies really work?


Listen Later

Since millions worked remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s become clear that not everyone needs to work face-to-face in an office environment to be successful.

Some companies – like global travel company Airbnb have gone as far as adopting a ‘work from anywhere policy’, piloting programs to attract digital nomads to their workforce. Is a work-from-anywhere approach a help or a hindrance when it comes to teamwork, talent and culture?

Hear from an industry leader who is part of a work-from-anywhere organisation, and academic experts who unpack how this looks across an ever-changing workforce to build a new culture of talent attraction and retention.
