Feeling lost in the hybrid work maze? Struggling to keep up with the rapid pace at which AI is developing? Still shaken from the dramatic changes that the COVID-19 pandemic wrought?
You are not alone. The modern workplace is a blend of the digital and the physical, with employers and employees seeking a way to balance the two. As millennials and Gen Z, with their drive for ‘experience’, dominate these spaces, a change of mindset is needed, and fast.
Work Made Easy envisages a more relatable work environment, one that works across employee–employer, age and physical–digital divides. As Parthajeet Sarma, John Hoffmire and Raj Krishnamurthy think through the ways in which the gap between the ease of virtual platforms and the human touch of physical offices can be bridged, they unlock potent secrets.
Written as much for organisational leaders and workplace-enhancement consultants as it is for employees, this book is loaded with practical advice. There are tips on, among other things, how to seamlessly navigate the hybrid world, how to embrace AI as a helpful ally, and how to make the workplace experience your own. Undergirding all of this practical advice is the authors’ five-point action plan: research, recognise, ideate, pilot and implement. A thriving, adaptable workplace, high employee satisfaction and higher efficiency—Work Made Easy lays out actionable steps towards these goals of true workplace transformation.
I have two folders in my hard-disk; one is labelled HASSLED and the other labelled RELAXED. Under RELAXED I have my writings, mostly blog posts and book manuscripts. Rest are family pics.
Under HASSLED is stored work related files. My bread and butter in this folder comes from my management consultancy work around Workplace Transformation. I am a Workplace Experience Designer, an Entrepreneur and a Chevening scholar (Oxford University)
