- Reframing the language of work.
- Why we need to approach hybrid flexibly.
- Tackling the issues of poor management and leadership.

This is what Lynda Gratton, author of Redesigning Work and Professor of Management Practice at London Business School, says about it:
“We all know that the old three-stage life course of full-time education, full-time work and full-time retirement is not fit for purpose. But we also know that to make the changes to a more flexible and adaptive multi-stage life, we need to be bold and courageous. In this inspiring book, Henderson shows the foundations for this courage and shares the stories of those who have created momentum and energy in their working life.”
