The social enterprise in Canada – a podcast from Deloitte

How can organizations remain distinctly human in a technology-driven world? Over time, technology, society, politics and individual needs have evolved. As a result, work has shifted, too. Employees want to work for companies that make a difference and to use tech to do more meaningful work. To succeed, businesses must embrace the idea of the social enterprise, where purpose and profit go hand in hand. In this podcast, Deloitte’s Human Capital practice will dive into the concepts of purpose, potential and perspectives – key ideas outlined in the 2020 Deloitte Global Human Capital Report.

    A New Perspective

    How can we generate bold plans for the work of the future amidst so much uncertainty? The workforce has changed. No longer are all employees full time and in the office, for instance. Automation’s advancing, and yet not much work has been done to truly integrate human and machine into the work itself. Who knows what might come next? How can you plan ahead when it’s not clear what things might look like five or 10 years from now? The key isn’t to predict what might happen, but rather plan with fresh perspectives. This episode will look at how companies can think boldly about the future. Speakers: David Brown, Global Workforce Transformation Leader at Deloitte Kathy Woods, partner and National Workforce Transformation Leader at Deloitte

    Reaching your potential

    How can organizations build learning into the flow of work so they can build an adaptable, resilient and future ready workforce? People are working harder than ever before. They’re ambitious, they’re entrepreneurial and they’re using tech in new ways. Yet productivity isn’t increasing. Why not? Because employees aren’t realizing their full potential. Going forward, companies must give staff meaningful work, offer ongoing educational opportunities and use tech to help them do their jobs better. Companies must also build resilience – where people can continuously evolve – into their workforce. Speakers: Gordon Sandford, National Leader for Digital Transformation and Lifelong Learning at Deloitte Zabeen Hirji, Executive Advisor Future of Work at Deloitte

    Work with a purpose

    Should organizations be accountable for worker well-being? Companies must become social enterprises, where purpose – and not just profit – drives business. People want to work for an operation that makes life better, shows empathy for staff and more. Those that don’t embrace the social enterprise risk not being around for long. A key aspect of purpose is worker well-being. When people feel like they’re making a difference they feel better mentally and physically, which leads to increased productivity. We explore the idea of purpose and how companies can improve their employees’ well-being. Featuring: Aaron Groulx and Sabrina Sdao.
