Omni-Working

'A Powerful and Liberating Leadership Mindset'

"There is no one quite like Gwen when it comes to understanding and demystifying the myriad of permutations and opportunities that the new ways of working presents.

It can seem too complex and become overly emotional as we navigate the perceived conflicting demands of work and people. But, as Gwen clearly demonstrates, it is not achoice of one or the other. If we get stuck in the conundrum of “where” people work then there is no solution. Gwen has created the 7 principles of Omni-Working that move us into a focus on “how” we work together in the most effective way for the team and the business. It is a brilliant, win-win concept.

The expression Gwen uses that really inspires me is that we must focus on coming together “with intention and purpose, not prescription” - that is a powerful and liberating leadership mindset for us all to hold as we wrestle with this modern work dynamic. It is the outcome of a truly compassionate approach - understanding with positive action, and a practical guide to living the life of a compassionate leader.

The Omni-Working framework provides a brilliant checklist for leaders to use when considering and, critically, co-designing the ideal working environment for their particular business and situation that “secures the best for all”

Don’t just read it, use it! Hurrah"
