As 2021 draws to a close, it's been a good time to reflect on the past year and the whirlwind it's been. Business has been non-stop since my first client started in Jan 2021...which is so much more than I ever could have hoped for in my first 12 months of working for myself.

So a huge thank you to all of the wonderful people I've worked with and who I've had the pleasure of calling my clients, and to the talented suppliers who have supported in delivering some exciting projects.

There already seems to be lots in the pipeline for 2022, so here's to a much needed rest over the festive season, ready to launch into the New Year with renewed vigor!

Wishing everyone a wonderful festive season, whatever you may be doing. πŸŽ„πŸ₯‚πŸŒŸ

πŸ‘‰ 76% of employees want flexibility WHERE they work.
πŸ‘‰ 93% want flexibility WHEN they work.

As someone who works for themselves, I'm now a permanent home worker. And i do sometimes miss having an office to go into, to connect with co-workers, throw ideas around and have some banter.

But would I want to return to an office full-time? Hell no.

How would I feel if my employer enforced a full-time return to the office? I'd potentially be looking elsewhere. πŸ€”

It's different for everyone of course, but this article just highlights the challenge facing many employers in how they manage this, and how they get it right!

Ultimately, talk to your workforce and adapt to the new ways people want to work, or face getting left behind.

The Future Forum Pulse, a global study from the Future Forum, shows there is a wide gap about returning to the office between executives and non-executives. Failure to address the gap could create crisis situations for companies and organizations.

Job search engine Adzuna recently found that almost 4️⃣ in πŸ”Ÿ UK vacancies – over 366,000 roles – are advertised without salary information.

Candidates want to know what you'll pay them before they apply for a role.

It's a no brainer. Put a salary on your job adverts. You'll always get more relevant people apply for your roles. πŸ’°

From leading with empathy to giving mothers the space to adjust to life working from home, brands must support marketers returning from maternity leave during the pandemic, or risk losing talent forever.

Your website is your shop front to the world, so it's important it delivers the right first impression for your potential new customer.

Take a look at the most important elements you'll want to include in your company's website in 2021 and beyond. Hint, hint: Some of these may surprise you.

Covid-19 jabs for staff 'should be our call' say 58% of UK managers.

An interesting article on the Guardian, as more than half of UK business managers believe it is their job to encourage employees to get a Covid-19 vaccination to make sure workplaces are safe for the return of employees.

A moral minefield and slightly contentious issue for sure, as we all look to the future and returning to work in our offices (even if it is only for a few days a week!).

Moral minefield as CMI poll finds opinion split on whether to restrict workplace for employees refusing vaccination
