Today’s coffee companion is a colleague at Equal Experts.

We talked about:

  • missing meetings
  • turning up for meetings ridiculously early (like, by a month)
  • the delights of the West Coast of Ireland
  • the delights of Pembrokeshire
  • the disconnect in holiday expectations between kids and their parents
  • Famous Five fantasies
  • the strange way in which the tyranny of Outlook has made every minute we spend transparent, and yet at the same time completely obscured
  • The Second Coming of Scientific Management
  • how people talk about work/life balance, but rarely seem to talk about how it’s necessary to have a life at work
  • the nature of introversion
  • helping people to understand what surrounds the delivery of a good service
  • the long nose of hybrid working
  • hybrid, remote and considerations of global teams
