Navigating the SHIFT: Embracing Fluidity for the Now and Next of Work EP 189
In this episode, Rachael talks with Cali Yost. Cali is a pioneer in work flexibility and the CEO of Flex+Strategy Group. They delve into the evolving landscape of work post-pandemic, focusing on the concept of Fluidity. This episode unpacks the shift towards remote and hybrid work models. It also explores the challenges and opportunities of organizational policies on flexibility. The episode emphasizes the critical need for adaptability and the need to redefine work and life fit for all of us.
🎧 Key Topics:
The Evolution of Workplaces: We explore the transition to remote and hybrid models. What does this mean for organizational culture and employee satisfaction?
Adaptability in Action: We discuss strategies for navigating change in the workplace, maintaining productivity and wellbeing.
Work-Life Integration: We talk about how the pandemic has reshaped our approach to balancing professional and personal lives. We also take a look at the role of flexibility in fostering a healthier work environment.
The challenges of flexibility continue. We zero in on the disconnect between employee desires for autonomy and leader pushback. Cali shares insights from her group's latest report, "The Now and Next of Work." She highlights the gap between employer and employee perceptions of flexible work and suggests ways to bridge the divide. (HINT: It's about navigating discomfort and finding common ground and a common language.)

They share effective strategies for embracing the fluid dynamics of today's work environment. Whether you're a leader looking to adapt your organizational policies, or an employee advocating for greater work-life integration, this episode offers valuable insights.
