#044 - The Future of Work: A Global Perspective Through the Lens of Wellbeing (with Chris Cummings)

The change we’ve experienced in the past few years has had a global impact on people, business, and society. The flexibility around how, when, and where we work has fundamentally changed, as have the conversations and expectations about the role that employees and organizations play in the dance called business. We are painfully aware of the impact that mental health, social connection, and leadership have on the wellbeing and performance of people and the companies that employ them. Today’s guest is Chris Cummings and he has a unique global perspective on workplace culture, people, and leadership mindset. As CEO of Wellbeing at Work, he runs an annual series of popular events in diverse countries around the world and has a front row seat to the corporate zeitgeist as well as important regional, cultural, and organizational trends. In our conversation, we will dive into important topics like remote and hybrid work models, employee experience, wellness, benefits, learning and development, and the impact of leadership on outcomes for people and businesses.
