In April 2024, Andy Lake spoke with Ian Ellison and Chris Moriarty of the renowned Workplace Geeks podcast, with further commentary from Dan Wakelin. Now in its third series, the podcast hosts some of the best conversations you can find on the modern workplace. Highly recommended!
This conversation focuses on Andy’s most recent book, Beyond Hybrid Working: A Smarter & Transformational Approach to Flexible Working. The book draws together more than three decades of workplace experience, thinking, research and practical implementation. It also explores Andy’s background and route to becoming one of the leading voices on flexible and smarter working, and his role in changing working practices in UK central government.
“A joy to listen to” – Dr Dan Wakelin
In the conversation, Andy sets out why most implementations of hybrid working don’t deliver either real change or effective flexibility.
But of course the conversation doesn’t stop there. Chris and Ian encourage Andy to whip his soapbox out from under his desk and share his views on recent central Government return-to-the-office directives, under the then Conservative government. He pulls no punches!
