Solo Episode: Flexible work

Solo Episode: Flexible work
Inspired by the wonderful Aoife O'Brien and her solo episodes on her podcast "Happier at Work" I have created this solo episode! In this special episode I talk about about flexible work and in particular why we still have a very long way to go regarding part-time work as well as remote & part-time work in North America and beyond. In the episode I also invite you, my listeners to contemplate some of your views about part-time work. I referred to several articles in the podcast: Happier at Work: Zurich UK: Salesforce: Air B’nB: Part-time jobs: New shift allowing for moms/ caregivers: If you enjoyed this episode, I also highly recomment the recent podcast episode with Johanna Fink who specialises in part-time careers: For an overview episode of part-time work in the form of job sharing, I put this episode together in celebration of the 100th episode: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/special-celebratory-overview-episode-part-1/id1505170119?i=1000554540484 While I may not have focused particularly about the importance of part-time work for *everyone* in this solo episode, I am a big believer that we can only get to more flexible work if we have especially male role models taking on care work and working flexibly. This summary episode talks about my 20+ episodes with dads and dad advocates.

Carlotta Dal Pozzo: Advocate for reduced working week
This week I am very appreciative to have as my guest Carlotta Dal Pozzo. Carlotta is an Italian woman based in Berlin, with a passion for everything related to occupational psychology and companies' culture. Taking her first steps into innovative ways of working, she's an advocate of a reduced working week. As more and more companies are struggling with the great resignation, I feel it is particularly important to learn from different generations about their expectations regarding the future of work. In this episode I speak with Carlotta about her recently finished bachelor thesis in psychological science about debunking the myth of the 9-to-5 working hours. I found it very interesting to have with Carlotta another guest who has written a university thesis about various aspects of flexible work. To me it follows the trend of many surveys that offering various modes of flexible work is increasingly expected as a given to attract and retain talent. Carlotta told me about her research regarding various European case studies and theoretical models. She also shared her personal observations regarding work in Germany and Italy.

31 Days of Transferable Skills Initiative: Talk with Björn Michael
Welcome to the special bonus episodes of the 31 Days of Transferable Skills Initiative! During the month of December 2021 I raised awareness about transferable soft/ business skills that can be learned by volunteering, unpaid care work, caregiving, traveling extensively, and more. The daily LinkedIn posts/ activities included personal experiences from my time as a stay-at-home mom, surveys, research, Q&A interviews, info and quotes from previous podcast guests as well as LinkedIn Lives. Here is the link to the summary post containing all previous 30 posts. I will be publishing the 5 LinkedIn Live interviews as bonus podcast episodes throughout the month of January before the start of season 3 in February. Today's episode is my day 29 talk with my guest Björn Michael. Björn is a life coach and facilitator, who believes that fulfillment and contentment make people peaceful and generous. As facilitator he loves to create safe spaces for sharing vulnerability. As a mentor, Björn enables people to feel comfortable and serves them to achieve sustainable life transformations. Originally from Germany, he currently travels in a motorhome with his wife and daughter through Europe. They are on a Co-Learning & Co-Living journey to explore different ways of sustainable lifestyles and community models. Since 2021 he got involved in the Post Growth Institute (PGI). Fascinated by the idea of creating a "future that's better, not bigger", he currently learns a lot about the post growth economy. Björn is a passionate advocate for empathic communication and leads various workshops on this topic. We are talking about transferable skills learned from Björn's time as a stay-at-home dad as well as the motorhome journey he is currently on.
