If the pandemic years saw the office become a 'blank space', the hybrid era gradually witnessed that space fill up again through return-to-office mandates.
In this week's episode of The Mindtools L&D Podcast, Rob Baker joins us to continue our 'Eras Tour'. We discuss:
- how the pandemic created an opportunity for 'job crafting', and what's changed since we've come out of lockdown
- whether job crafting has lost relevance since the pandemic, or just gotten harder to realize
- what new research tells us about the impact of job crafting on performance and wellbeing.
