Intro
What will the most successful teams look like in the future of work? How is consultancy changing? How can businesses improve their knowledge management and sharing?
Believe it or not, Marilyn Zakhour and I manage to fit all of these topics (and several more) into this episode.
Marilyn is a fascinating person – from her multi-hyphenate career to her ease of conversation.
Since 2020, when she left her role as Head of Dubai Opera, she has been working with top executives to help them step into the future of work and prioritise collaboration over co-location.
Our wide-ranging conversation about big ideas felt more like a casual chat with a friend – and there are plenty more seats at the table for you to join us.
