Thriving: The Breakthrough Movement

Oct 08, 2022 Season 1 Episode 19

My guest this week is Eddy Annys, who is Managing Director of Randstad Belgium and a former Olympic athlete. Listen to Eddy talk about:

His experience as a world class high jumper, and how peak performance by world class athletes is only possible by having an enabling system
Why ensuring that everyone has an opportunity for meaningful work remains a challenge – even in times and places of economic prosperity
How we need to challenge historical stereotypes of difference – such as gender and ethnicity – that stand in the way of diversity and inclusion
Why resilience has become a key competence as the world gets more fast-paced and complex – and how this links to the Good Work Goals
How cobots (collaborative human-robot interfaces) are a new, hopeful trend – and why job automation is not necessarily to be feared
