In this, the 50th Workplace Geeks episode (woot woot 🎺) Chris and Ian are joined by Gemma Dale and Hannah Wilson from Liverpool John Moores University to discuss their recent paper from the International Journal of Workplace Health Management called “What is healthy hybrid work? Exploring employee perceptions on well-being and hybrid work arrangements”, co-authored with IFMA’s new Director of Research, Professor Matt Tucker.

Gem is a university lecturer, flexible and hybrid working specialist, author, coach, HR director and board advisor. Hannah is a Reader in Workplace Psychology, DBA Programme Leader, and also Gem’s Director of Studies for her own doctorate – of which this paper brings some key findings together. We learn that context is king, especially when it comes to hybrid, the perennially emotive topic where one man’s meat is another man’s poison (as the proverb goes).

Simon Iatrou from Magenta Associates is on reflection section duties to expose workplace aphorisms, while dutifully being accompanied by some noisy Brighton seagulls. 🩷

The Workplace Event's Workplace Leaders Top 50 awards are in their second year, and the Geeks were honoured to be invited to speak to the winners. Each of these special episodes will feature small but perfectly formed chats with three winners🏅

In this third episode we're in conversation with Nicola Morris (ISS), Alistair Scott (IEM) and Steph Welch (Arup). The overarching theme of all three discussions is Workplace and FM as a career of choice (or most likely not) and all the inspiring, creative, equitable and disruptive ways to do something about it. Here's what we asked them:

• How did you get into the workplace sector?
• ⁠⁠What’s different about it now compared to then?
• What does the sector need to be better at, and why?
• ⁠⁠What advice would you give an up and coming workplace leader?
