Startup Breakdown Episode 32: Face Down on a Marble Tabletop

In this episode we are joined by friend and guest Dale Muffett and we talked a lot about flexible working and how important it is for giving access to the workforce to those that need more flexibility. This was such a wonderful conversation to have with Dale, about changes that have been made at Spinal Research to implement 4 day week and flexible working.

We are joined by Guest Dale Muffett. Dale is an elite wheelchair marathon racer and Head of Operations at Spinal Research.
