    Stay Conversations - Beyond Benefits With Holly Leckenby-Rye, Head of People at Eldercare Startup Lottie

    In this episode of Stay Conversations, Céline is joined by Holly Leckenby Rye, People Lead at Lottie, to explore why eldercare deserves a bigger place in the workplace conversation and what employers can do to support people through life's most challenging moments. They discuss the growing pressures facing the sandwich generation, how employers can make eldercare support more accessible, and why benefits alone aren't enough. From psychological safety and supportive managers to practical resources that help employees navigate care, we explore what it really means to create a workplace where people feel able to ask for help. Because employees don't leave their lives at the door when they come to work, supporting people through life's big moments isn't just the right thing to do: it can make a real difference to how they experience work.

    Stay Conversations - The Snowflake Myth: Gen Z and how to retain them with author Alex Atherton

    Are we getting Gen Z wrong? In this episode of Stay Conversations, Céline is joined by Alex Atherton, author of The Snowflake Myth, to challenge some of the stereotypes surrounding Gen Z and explore what their expectations of work can teach us about the workplace as a whole. The conversation discusses resilience, feedback, flexibility, leadership and the reality of having four generations working side by side and ask whether some of the tensions we see between generations are really about generations at all. Because perhaps Gen Z isn't the problem we need to solve. Perhaps they're telling us something about how work needs to evolve. So, what makes people of every generation choose to stay?

    Stay Conversations - The Workplace Happiness Equation with Chief Workplace Specialist, Sophie Bryan

    Stay Conversations - Intentional Workplace Design in the Age of AI with Sunday Times Best-Selling Author Lizzie Penny

    What if the problem isn't where we work, but how we've designed work? In this episode of Stay Conversations, Celine is joined by Lizzie Penny, co-author of the Sunday Times bestseller Workstyle, to explore how the way we work is changing and why organisations need to rethink work by design, not by default. They explore who should take responsibility for creating better ways of working: individuals, managers or organisations, why getting this right is becoming a commercial imperative, not simply an employee experience conversation. Because people don't necessarily leave organisations. Sometimes, they leave ways of working that no longer serve them. So what does it take to design work that people actually want to stay in?
