Flexibility is one of the most talked-about workplace trends right now — from 4-day work weeks, to working from anywhere, to hybrid being the new normal. But for small and medium-sized businesses, these trends can feel out of reach or simply too complicated to implement. 

In this episode, Karen Kirton breaks down the myths versus realities of workplace flexibility, backed by research and real-world examples. Whether you’ve been thinking about trialling a 4-day work week, allowing team members to work remotely (even overseas), or refining your hybrid model, this episode will give you practical steps to make it work — without disrupting your operations or culture. 

What you’ll learn in this episode: 

• Why the 4-day work week isn’t a magic fix (and how to trial it successfully) 
• The hidden risks of “work from anywhere” policies — and how to manage them 
• Why hybrid work only works when it’s intentionally designed 
• Three questions to ask before introducing flexible work options 
• Practical ways to reduce risk and increase engagement with flexible models 

Flexibility can work for your business — when it’s done on your terms. Tune in for a clear, practical guide to making flexibility work for your team and your bottom line.
