    Episode 11: Shoots: How the digital workplace became lonely and not fun

    Where on earth should we work? In this current post-COVID stage of work, there's confusion – and quite a lot of it – about just where work should happen, and how.   ‘Hybrid work’ is a catch-all term which sounds precise but actually says little and is, at best, usefully vague. So, how do the realities of ‘hybrid working’ serve us today? And is today’s workplace experience as exciting, enjoyable and productive as we’d like?  Four years on from the pandemic, DWG’s Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Paul Miller, examines this conundrum in the latest bite-sized episode of Rewilding Work with Paul Miller.  Paul offers reflections on where and how work could happen and the possible benefits. Is what’s in place today really a good balance, or could we do more to seek out the rewards of creativity, community, connection, purpose and fun?  It’s a challenge faced by many – and in just 10 minutes Paul shares five shoots of wisdom and actionable ideas to help. But fear not, the value of the beloved flexibility discovered during COVID is front and centre of his thinking.  So, for honest observations and helpful truths about today’s world of hybrid working, watch today.  (Show notes, links and transcript for this episode.)  Guest speakers:  (No guest speakers included as Paul presents this episode solo.)   Hosted on Acast.

    Episode 9: Avanade: How to be an AI-first CEO – with Pamela Maynard

    The AI-first CEO has arrived – an exciting and transformational change in modern leadership. But what is an AI-first CEO? And what does AI leadership look like in practice?     To answer this, Pamela Maynard, Chief Executive Officer of Avanade, joins DWG’s Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Paul Miller, for the latest episode of Rewilding Work with Paul Miller. Avanade, a joint venture between Microsoft and Accenture, is a leading digital innovator with more than 60,000 employees.    Using AI to disrupt norms across the organization is encouraged by Pamela. She is keen to harness AI both in terms of the services Avanade delivers to its clients, but also in how the company operates – and she wants to do this in a way that puts people first. The appointment of Avanade’s first Chief AI Officer confirms Pamela’s commitment to a future underpinned by AI.    Together, Paul and Pamela discuss AI guardrails and ethics, responsible practices, and real-life examples of how AI is changing working practices. The conversation took place just after the world’s first AI security summit held this autumn at Bletchley Park, further evidence of how industry and governments are firmly focused on navigating and preparing for an AI-led world.     Adding their thoughts are expert commentators Nancy Goebel, Chief Executive Officer of DWG, and Iveta Hajdakova, a cultural anthropologist and Associate Director at Stripe Partners.    Rewilding Work helps give focus to the view that, if we change the world of work, we can change the wider world.
