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. 🩷
