Lots of us spend (too) many hours sitting behind a computer for our jobs. And then spend our free time scrolling on our smartphones. Dropping concentration levels. Rising obesity rates. Mental health issues. It’s clear that we’d all benefit from less time on our devices and more time being active.   Technology isn’t all bad though. There are some fantastic examples of technology being put to good use. It can help us cheer on our favourite sports stars. Inspire us to get off the couch. Monitor our heartbeat. Start working out in our own living room. Book a local tennis court in a few clicks.   So what if technology isn’t the problem - but part of the solution? Could it help more of us get into sport - and inspire a better society along the way?   For this episode, we invited Scottish tennis coach Judy Murray (aka Andy and Jamie’s mum) and Mark Lillie, our global technology strategy and transformation partner, to dive into this week’s big question. Tune in to find out… How technology is attracting different communities to new sports Why unexpected role models are the key to keeping young people engaged in sport Why a digital version of Judy Murray popped out of a tube of tennis balls What TV show our hosts and guests would like to live in (our infamous icebreaker strikes again…)   Enjoyed the episode?

Talking about disability at work isn’t something new. But how has the conversation changed over the years? And is it changing fast enough? There are 14.1 million disabled people in the UK. That’s one in five. And it’s something that can affect us all - whether personally, or through friends, family, and colleagues. The world of work is changing rapidly. From the spaces we work in, to our hiring and recruitment processes – the workplace needs to be inclusive by design. Especially with more than 4.4 million disabled people in work in the UK. And with one in three still feeling that there is prejudice against them. So, what’s the impact of hybrid working on people with disabilities? Will this make our workplaces more inclusive? And if you’re not in an office job, will anything really change at all? Tune in to find out...

Many of us are trying to change something. No matter who we are or where we live, we want to make our corner of the world a little bit better for those around us. Around the world, people continue to inspire us by standing up for what they believe in. Climate school strikes. LGBTQ+ rights. #MeToo. And Black Lives Matter, to name a few.  These movements are all vital if we’re to create a more equal society on a thriving planet. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy. In fact, changing something is really hard. What we see as an overnight success is usually years in the making. So, you want to make the world a better place. How do you identify what it is exactly you want to change? How do you share the journey as you gather momentum? And importantly, how do you keep going when things get tough?

Hybrid working. It sounds like the shiny solution to what the future of work is going to look like. But we wouldn’t blame you if you felt part excited, part wondering how it’s all going to work.​ The past 18 months or so have been challenging. But hey, we’ve learnt some valuable lessons about what we really want from work. Next stop: taking those positives to create workplaces, whether they’re virtual or physical, that work for all of us. ​ As with any change, it’s exciting to build something new. But it’s going to take some trial and error to get things right. So where do we go from here in a way that’s sustainable, inclusive and, most importantly, kind to ourselves and others?​ Tune in to find out… How many days George used to spend on a train every year What Jackie’s current work routine looks like About the impact of what Jolawn calls the ‘silent pandemic’ Why wellbeing is about much more than just sitting cross-legged   Enjoyed the episode?
