Ep 11 - The 4-Day Work Week & The Digital Workplace Dilemma
The EQuipped Team would love to hear from you! Text us...
In this episode of EQuipped, Aaron, Harry AND Cliff dive into the changing dynamics of the modern workplace, from Artificial Intelligence to the future of Remote Working. We debate whether the flexibility of working from home (with its easier life admin) is worth the risk of blurred work-life boundaries and growing mental health pressures. We get into:
• The 4-Day Work Week – Can we really achieve 100% productivity in 80% of the time? (Spoiler: the research says yes.)
• Adaptability & Emotional Intelligence (EI) – Why EI is becoming a non-negotiable for effective digital leadership and better team collaboration.
• The Communication Chasm – How text-based communication and endless Zoom calls can fuel misinterpretations and hide how people really feel.
We also share a first-hand story of how a trust-based, outcome-focused approach to work helped one organisation double its profit.
Join us as we ask: is the “path of least resistance” actually good for your well-being, and should we really be aiming for a 4-day work week?
