Welcome to the Workplace Evolution podcast #7! During this episode Michael Costello (Workplace Evolution Director based in Lancaster) meets with Charlotte Lockhart - CEO of "4 Day Week Global" a community where all those interested in the 4 Day week can connect, share ideas and help create the movement.  This podcast is a great debate and exploration of an exciting concept…the 4 Day Week. It asks some very serious questions about where the workplace is heading. What would it mean to you if you could...

Balancing shareholder value and the needs of our employees? Pay for the value people add rather than their time in the office?  What if there was a way to start winning the battle against an ever growing mental health problem in this country?  Not to mention the equality challenges, pressures on family, the ageing population and even the environment

The podcast gives some insight in to the challenges of implementing a 4 Day Week as well as whether it is really for everyone. It also touches on some big political questions of our time - what society do we want in theUK? How would the great British tax payer feel about the 4 Day Week? Is it only for those that can afford it?
