About this Episode

In this HR in review episode, we ask what’s the difference between ‘remote friendly’ and ‘remote first’ work and why is this difference so important?

 

Guest: Sandra Thompson
Bill Banham‘s guest this time is Sandra Thompson, Founder of the Ei Evolution CX & EX Consultancy. She is also Lecturer of Professional Behaviours & Customer Management and People Management & Leadership (p/t) at Pearson College London.

 

Questions For Sandra Include:
  • What is emotional intelligence and why do you care so much about EI in the workplace?
  • Why do you focus on how we work rather than where we work?
  • Please could you describe the difference between ‘remote friendly’ and ‘remote first’ and why this difference is important?
  • Describe the skills you think everyone should practice (the 8 identified by Roberta and Nathan) and how these skills might help us avoid increasingly common work issues.
  • You recently spoke at DisruptHR London. Can you tell our listeners about your session, the event and why you got involved?
  • If you could pass on one crucial lesson you have learned in your career – in one minute or less – what would be your top tip for HR professionals?
  • What is the single biggest change you think will happen in HR over the next 5-10 years?
