WFH to RTO: Let’s consider the Behavioural Aspects and Bottom-Line Impacts!

Since mid 2023, there’s been a steady increase in the amount of press and media coverage regarding the movement back to a five-day office work culture.

Yet, despite organisation leaders acknowledging this, and many technical directors of sports team’s claiming they have their recruitment processes “nailed”, choosing new team members is still left wanting.

This approach enhances effectiveness and efficiency, improves human well-being, user satisfaction, accessibility and sustainability; and counteracts possible adverse effects of use on human health, safety and performance.

Developing 'EARL': A contemporary approach to building high performing organisations

The time between Christmas and New Year provides many of us with a period to rest, to reflect on the past year and to reset for the future.
