In this episode of The OCTOPod, Tim Russell, Chief Technologist at CDW, is joined by Sophia Swain, CTO at Leaders Romans Group, to explore the real-world realities of hybrid working, employee enablement, and what it truly takes to create a productive, inclusive digital workplace.



Forget the buzzwords—this episode cuts through the noise to reveal:




•


Why choice and flexibility are essential in the modern workplace




•


How hybrid working is evolving beyond fixed rules and rigid policies




•


Why technology still isn’t fully meeting the needs of today’s diverse workforce




•


How AI, collaboration platforms, and smarter tooling are (slowly) closing the equity gap in meetings




•


Why employee experience and enablement must be part of your retention and recruitment strategy




•


And how the “first 10 minutes of someone’s day” can set the tone for productivity—or frustration






🎯 Key Takeaway:

Hybrid working isn’t just about location. It’s about experience, empowerment, and giving people the tools—and trust—they need to thrive.
