THE FLOORPLAN
————
A podcast about the future of work with Dr Libby Sander and Matt Webber.
The Floorplan is a thorough and sometimes funny exploration of our attempts to navigate the modern workplace and the future of work. Steven Spielberg says he wakes up so excited that he can’t eat breakfast. But for most of us, work is far less fulfilling. The way we design jobs and where we expect people to perform can be dull at best and dehumanising at worst.
Less than a third of workers worldwide are engaged, sociopathic leadership is one of the hottest topics trending in management research, and 61% of workers report that work-related stress makes them physically sick.
Far from overjoyed, and after enduring lengthy commutes, work for many employees seems to fall on either end of an unhappy spectrum – bored to death or stressed to death.
Borrowing from case studies, expert guests, and ground-breaking research, The Floorplan hosts Dr Libby Sander and broadcaster Matt Webber uncover what the future of work holds and what individuals and organisations can do to make work and the workplace for everyone.
