SVP of people and culture Laura Butler says, “We are going to have to create new ways of establishing that sense of community and doing that online. Not everyone has the tools or the skills to manage that effectively virtually.”
Knowledge workers around the world are still looking for a better solution to work challenges. Learn from Marketing VP Jada Balster four ways to embrace the future of work, like embracing nimbleness.
Laura Butler called it when she predicted a boom in remote work. In a 2019 Global Workplace Survey, 80% of respondents said they’d turn down a job that didn’t offer flexible work.
Remote work champion Adrian Chang answers questions about how to prepare for the future of work, how to know when you’ve arrived, and what leaders should know to thrive.
Futurists make predictions about how work is changing, like work-life balance turning into work-life integration. “Work is life and life is work, all organised by your purpose.”

Support virtual work with culture and tech.
Supporting a modern workforce starts with a culture of trust and accountability, and workplace tech that reflects how individuals want to work.
“Communicate, communicate, communicate. By email, video, slack. Be transparent—don’t try to spin things. Employees want authenticity and the truth.”
- Laura Butler, SVP of people and culture
The work universe just pivoted from physical work to digital work, seemingly overnight. The Eudaimonia Machine can help us master this unprecedented shift to virtual work.
SVP of people and culture Laura Butler explains why culture is the heart of preparedness that helps leaders avoid risk, capture opportunity, and exceed modern workforce expectations.
In a world where virtual work is a new norm, leading with transparency can help you create a culture of trust, collaboration, and innovation (and avoid a culture where everyone looks over their shoulder and refuses to try new things).
Work today is a digital experience. HR leaders need to ask themselves this: is my organisation harnessing technology in a way that empowers people to do their best work, or is our tech stack putting additional barriers in their way?
