In 2014, one architectural firm embraced hybrid work, unlimited vacation, and radical flexibility. At this session, three members of the firm at different career stages will discuss how this approach has fostered a culture of belonging, enhanced workplace atmosphere, and supported equity in recruitment and retention. You'll have the opportunity to use collaborative technology to engage with the panelists, who will also share insights on how flexibility promotes career growth and successful project delivery.
