Going fully remote, and agile, is a big ask of any organisation. It inevitably brings risk as much as opportunity. What do charities need to do to make this a success?
Back in 2020 RNID (or Action on Hearing Loss as it was then known) announced its plans to sell its office and go fully remote. Not long after that, it decided to rebrand. That’s a lot of change, but RNID has seized the opportunity to do things differently and embrace disruption.
Michael Wilkinson, Associate Director for Digital and Innovation at RNID, tells us how their team has thrived through remote working, establishing new ways of working, removing core working hours, and taking an agile approach to leadership and strategy.
Zoe and Paul discuss what’s happening at Twitter after staff walkouts and share their advice on how to plan for whatever the future holds for the platform.
