New Ways of Working – London, UK: 2024 @Actiu (CDW 2024)

During the first day of Clerkenwell Design Week 2024, WOD had the pleasure of hosting a panel discussion at the London-based showroom of our long-time partners, Actiu.

Kay Sargent (HOK) presented 12 bad habits hindering the ways of working. The presentation looked at how we help organizations and their teams navigate new ways of working and avoid the 12 bad workplace behaviours that can sabotage success.

This was then followed by a panel discussion with our speakers that revolved around how hybrid working is more of an operational model than a workplace solution. And if companies don’t put in the hard work to make it effective, it could be the worst of both – where people commute in to sit on zoom calls all day; or people locking themselves in a room to do focused work all day. No space can resolve or address bad behaviours. Hence, we need to take a look at our existing behaviours that hold us back – what are we doing and how to help enable or disable the ‘new ways of work’ revolution.

Our panel featured; Jennifer L. Bryan FCIPD, (ABChange Consultancy), Nicola Osborn (Basha-Franklin), Serena Xtoumouzienne (Leesman) – hosted by WOD Founder, Harsha Kotak.
