Season 6 - Wrap Up

When I kicked off this season it was with the intent to reconnect to the roots of our namesake COMUNiTI, and it has not disappointed!   This season was to encourage us to take a broader look at what we should be focusing on to encourage people back to our workplaces.  After first answering the pre-vailing question "Why?" we need to then consider that creating a workplace worth going to, requires more than a fantastic fitout!    Across this season I have shared a framework for building Community within your workplace, the role of place, and in turn its own detailed framework.   I have deepened my own understanding of what it means to design for community.  And what I have learned from my guests is that when we lean into creating places that support people in this way, we are far more likely to build communities than we are to just building businesses.    This episode is a recap of the thoughts I've been left to ponder from each guest and how I can play with these ideas in my own work and life.   Whilst we are living in a highly complex and challenging time, it is also one of the most exciting!  Togeher, we are reshaping the world of work.  Reimagining what work looks like. What our workplaces will look like. And the role that both need to play in enhancing our experience of work and building communities. I'm going to be taking a few months break from the podcast now, but I'll be back later this year with a fresh new season!
