“Being empowered to design my day the way it works best for me means I feel trusted. I can work when I’m most productive, take breaks when I need them, and create time for the things I love. By being able to work from home, I save 2 hours of commuting – and as an early riser, I really like that it means I can get a workout and meditate before I’ve even started my day.
But flexible working only works if it’s two-way. It relies on integrity. So as a team, we have to show a great deal of respect for one another. When we agree or commit to deliver something, we make sure we deliver it; and we always make room for everyone’s own diverse commitments and needs.
The best thing about having an open working atmosphere is that I feel able speak up on matters that are important to me. It’s what inspired me to use some of my new free time to set up a Business Resource Group called RISE UK with colleagues, focusing on underrepresented race and ethnic minorities. It makes me extremely proud to be a part of a company that truly cares about people.”
