In today's HR in Review episode, we explore why and how Gen Z is changing the norms in the workplace. We also explore the key things organisations should learn about this new approach to work.
Guest: Isabel Berwick, host of the Financial Times Working It podcast
Isabel Berwick is the host of the FT's Working It podcast about the workplace and writes the weekly Working It newsletter. She is the editorial lead for the FT Women in Business Forum, moderates and hosts FT and external events about the workplace and beyond. Her book on the new way of working in a post-pandemic world, The Future-Proof Career, is out now.
Questions for Isabel include:
- Could you outline key differences between the younger generation (Millennials and Gen Z) and older generations (Baby Boomers and Gen X) in terms of workplace expectations and behaviours?
- Do you think organisations will be able to shift to provide training and support for this new emphasis on wellbeing and mental health?
- Why do you think the younger generation places such a high emphasis on this balance and flexibility compared to previous generations?
- In what ways do you think the younger generation has pushed for greater DEI in the workplace, and could you perhaps give us any examples of how organisations have responded?
- What do you think managers can do to retain these younger workers?

In today's HR in Review episode, we discuss managing political disagreements in the workplace. With only a few weeks left to go until the election, political conversations in the office are becoming more prevalent and tensions could rise. So, who's responsibility is it to manage the differing interests and how should organisations be thinking about free speech in this context?
Guest: Toby Hough, People and Culture Director, HiBob
Toby Hough is driven by unlocking the business impact of strong organisational culture and people strategy. Toby joined HiBob in 2021 with almost 5 years of experience having previously worked as Director of People & Culture at hiber and Head of People and Culture at Medallia. Having previously served as a member of management teams representing the people function, Toby has a solid understanding of the people challenges faced by growing organisations.
Questions for Toby include:
- What role should companies play in managing or facilitating political/social conversations among employees in the workplace?
- What policies or guidelines should organisations implement to keep workplace political discourse respectful and avoid damaging conflicts?
- What's the best way for companies to facilitate an environment of mutual understanding around differing political perspectives?
- With generational divides evident in attitudes towards sociopolitical discussions at work, how can companies bridge those gaps and create an environment where employees from different age groups feel comfortable voicing their opinions respectfully?
- What steps should managers take when political discussions lead to conflicts between employees?
- Who’s responsibility is it to foster this environment which allows for healthy political discussions? HR, leaders, employees themselves?
