What does it mean to be human at work in 2020?

Starring Jeremy Dean, Cheryl Tansey and Hans Schulte

As People Professionals, it is one of our core imperatives to ensure we are bringing out the potential in our people at work, for both the results of our organisations and our peoples experience. We are starting to see greater momentum in the (always important) narrative around 'bringing your whole self to work', 'be more human at work', 'humanise the workplace', 'take care of people'. Recent news stories featuring and becoming quite viral around flexible working, and shorter working hours are just one clear example of the momentum taking place.

The real question for us as People Leaders is, what does this tangibly mean? What are leaders doing in this space? Is it all another box of fluffies for our strategic and commercially focussed counterparts to roll their eyes at, or are there some measurable impacts to our business goals to drive initiatives and mindsets in this space? Is a big change needed here, or is it already happening?

If you have similar questions, you are in luck. Come along to our first meetup of 2020 to hear from three amazing people, challenging status quo and leading the way in making workplaces more human. We’ve asked them to simply come along and share their own narrative and stories about what it means to be human at work in 2020 and beyond.

Jeremy Dean ¬– Founder of leadership company, riders&elephants

Jeremy is the creator of The Emotional Culture Deck, an insanely simple tool that reimagines how you design your company culture. He’ll be sharing his story on why emotion matters in the workplace and what he’s learnt from three years of helping teams talk about emotions in the workplace.
