Working Culture

Are new patterns and ways of working becoming embedded?

With the Great Resignation of older workers leaving the workforce, the sharp rise in long-term sick, and the explosion in working from home, the culture of the workplace has been radically reformed. Will new habits and working patterns become embedded, or will new technologies including AI upend things again?

Amol Rajan discusses with a panel of experts:

Luke Johnson - entrepreneur, investor and writer, former Chairman of Pizza Express, Channel 4, and current Chairman of Start-up Britain.

Paul Johnson - director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies

Heejung Chung - labour market & welfare state researcher and Professor of Sociology and Social Policy, at the University of Kent

Sereena Abbassi - Equity and Inclusion practitioner, former Worldwide Head of Culture and Inclusion at M&C Saatchi
