The first half of 2022 has seen many businesses adjust to a new way of working with many going ahead with the hybrid approach within their teams. In this issue of TALK we’ll be delving into the different trends we’ve seen developing in 2022.
It seems that flexibility is the new normal when it comes to workplaces. We’ve learned a lot from the past two years and what is clear is that the flexible approach is an approach worth keeping going forward. On page 4 you can read our take on this new normal.
Perhaps you are learning how to manage your team in a new way and are adjusting to the ever-changing world of HR. You can read our take on 2022 trends in HR on page 10. You can also find out why coaching in the workplace is so important on page 12.
Are you looking to give your brand a refresh? Or perhaps you are a new business owner wondering how to create a strong brand identity. Phil Huber from Digital Stirling shares his tips and discusses why brand identity is so important for businesses on page 16.
We hope you enjoy reading issue 17 of TALK and we look forward to seeing what the rest of 2022 has to bring.
