In this episode, Shelley talks with Sinead Connolly, CEO and Co-Founder of Lotus People, about recruitment trends and the evolving workplace. Sinead shares insights on navigating a fast-paced work environment, where both leaders and teams must prioritise mental health, set boundaries and find balance amidst the hustle.

With multiple generations working side by side, companies face unique challenges in accommodating varying expectations, character traits and the widening age gap. Younger generations are more informed and have a strong sense of purpose, leading to shorter tenures within companies. Looking ahead, Sinead and Shelley explore how empathy, communication, collaboration and adaptability will remain critical skills as Gen Alpha enters the workforce, possibly alongside Baby Boomers. To attract and retain talent, organisations need forward-thinking strategies that infuse care and empathy into company culture, creating diverse pathways for people to thrive in new roles.
