Flexibility in the Workplace is the New Norm with Mika Cross

In this episode of Empowered with Sarah Moffat, we are joined by the delightful Mika Cross, a transformational workplace expert and strategist. We discuss how that in the past we have been left out of very important conversations that impact our work experience. In the climate we now find ourselves in, Mika shares with us a unique perspective that we don't have to go back to the way things looked like pre-pandemic. It is important to use the unique opportunity we've been given to use our voices and advocate for workplace flexibility. We don't have to go back, but rather we can move forward and create the workplace we want!

Note: The book mentioned in the podcast is called "Resilience" by Eric Greitens. Great book!
