Utilising a unique personal, face-to-face delivery, his focus is on cultural change, utilising the pandemic and the growth of home working as the catalyst for a better understanding of the subject. Rather than looking at working practices in isolation, he looks at how what we do at work carries over into our private lives and vice versa.
