Episode description

Forward-thinking organizations have bandied about the idea of a four-day workweek for years, but a new study out of the United Kingdom has brought some insight into the implementation and implications of the possibility. With the constantly-changing workplace and the COVID-19 changes affecting work-life balance, the four-day workweek experiment demands further scrutiny. 

Kathleen Quinn Votaw is the CEO of TalenTrust, a strategic recruiting and human capital consulting firm. She’s also the author of two books, Dare to Care in the Workplace: A Guide to the New Way We Work, and Solve The People Puzzle: How High-Growth Companies Attract & Retain Top Talent. She spoke to the podcast about the U.K. four-day workweek study.
