Summary

As people start to rethink the role of the office, there are new questions about when and why people come together. On the Squiggly Careers podcast this week, Helen talks to psychologist Dr. Tomas Chamorro Premuzic about how the adoption of hybrid working practices can help people to be their best at work. They discuss how to make teams work effectively and how to respond to risks of proximity bias and micromanagement. Whilst there is no '5 steps to success' solution, there are lots of thought-provoking insights from the conversation to reflect on and discuss further in teams to help move forward in this next phase of work.

0:00.0	Hi, you're listening to the Swiggly Careers podcast, a weekly show where we talk about the ups and downs of careers and help you to have that little bit more control over your future at work.
0:12.5	I'm Helen Tupper and today, instead of Sarah, my normal co-host, I'm going to be talking to psychologist and author Dr Thomas Chimorrow, Pramusik,
0:21.6	about the topic of hybrid work. So a bit of a hot topic at the moment. I've followed
0:26.7	Thomas's work for a really long time. It's always been so relevant to what we do at Amazing
0:31.8	If. And I really like his challenging approach, which I think comes across in the titles of
0:37.2	his multiple TED talks
0:38.5	with things like The Power of Negative Thinking, that's the title of one of them. The other one,
0:43.3	why we should be more sexist. And my recent favourite, why so many incompetent men become leaders.
0:49.4	He has a really interesting, challenging approach that I'm always ready to hear more about.
0:54.5	And despite that, in this conversation, he is, in his own words, a bit more practical than
1:00.0	cynical. And we touch on how teams can co-create a new set of rules for work, how the role
1:06.3	of managers needs to evolve, and also how to overcome a new version and a new risk really of progression
1:13.4	by presenteism, the idea that the people that come to the office are the people that are going to
1:18.6	succeed at work, which is obviously not what we want to be the future. So there's lots to think on
1:23.8	in this discussion. I personally could talk to and listen to Thomas for hours,
1:28.1	but we have condensed this conversation into about 30 minutes for you instead. As ever,
1:33.9	you can download the pod sheet to put the insights into action and join Pod Plus, which is our
1:38.7	live learning session that Sarah is going to be running this week as I am on holiday when this
1:43.0	episode comes out. And that's great if you want to explore and discuss the episode with a community of like-minded learners.
1:49.4	It's a super positive start to a Thursday.
1:52.2	All the links for the pod sheet and the pod notes and the pod plus all of it.
1:56.3	It's all in the show notes.
