Forward with Brighton’s flexibility

There were great keynote speeches from David Blackburn, Chief People Officer at the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, and Dr Charlotte Rae, Psychology Lecturer at Sussex University and specialist in the four-day week. Dr Rae set the scene for how flexible working needs to be more inclusive, focused on trust, employee wellbeing, communication and a constant dialogue between employers and employees.

As ever, it is a solution to the challenges in a tight labour market and should be used as a tool for great management and as a pillar of business culture.

Modelled by SMT and managed by middle management who, at present, seem to be most in need of support.

There were so many great topics which we will explore in the blog and white paper which resulted in a fabulous day of sharing and action. Thank you to all our peer mentors, sponsors and partners.
