In this episode of the UK Psych Health and Safety Podcast, Sheila is talking to the CEO of Jeunessima, Dr. Ines O’Donovan, about changing leadership over time.
Dr. O’Donovan emphasises how the remote workplace, and especially technologies such as the Metaverse, will bring teams closer together through creating virtual spaces that are optimised for collaboration.
They discuss the changing workplace and how new technologies can be used to bridge the gap between the older, traditional ways of working and the newer, technologically focused workspaces.
Rather than creating generalised spaces within organisations, we discuss the importance of encouraging employee engagement through more personalisation.
Instead of ignoring the conversations around women’s health, we discuss the $810 billion that is lost due to the lack of education and accommodations for women in the workplace.
