Tech, Women and Work in our Post-Covid Future Life Solved
-
- Society & Culture
The pandemic had a huge impact on working lives, lifestyles and employment for many of us here in the UK and further afield. In this episode of Life Solved University of Portsmouth researchers and business experts share their insights into what this means for our relationship with work in the future.
Many in education adapted to online learning during the pandemic. Dan McCabe explains how he collaborated with his department to create an online community where Graphic Design students could socialise, network with industry and enjoy inspiring talks during lockdown. He explains what “The Bruhaus” has added to the learning experience.
Dr Victoria Hooton and Dr Emily Yarrow discuss how the pandemic has contributed to a regression in opportunities for women. They also discuss how society and identity plays into the choices women are facing regarding work versus domestic or caring roles right now. And does the surge in remote working and tech have a darker side? They call for increased funding for mental health and domestic abuse support services.
Anne Stevens, Chair of the Advisory Board to Portsmouth Business School, explores a few of the trends emerging in business and the workplace and asks which are here to stay.
We look at how work culture is changing in terms of our routines, choices and expectations and ask what the opportunities are for businesses and employers who want to attract the best talent going forwards.
