Wake Up Call: How to rethink the ‘office’ to promote team wellbeing and productivity
BCI Webinar
Tom Vaughton has recently launched the first ‘outdoor woodland office’ for the Varn team. The last few years has made Tom consider carefully about how to rethink the traditional office work environment to support the Varn team’s physical and mental health, as well as encouraging enjoyment and excellence at work. Tom’s talk shares details of how he has created an exciting and inspirational new workspace based in a woodland setting. He shares his learnings and best practice about encouraging and getting the most from your team, as well as helping in terms of supporting with team recruitment.
This talk will be ideal for business owners, founders, managers and anyone in a role who can influence their workplace culture and team.

These sessions take place every other Friday morning from 8.30-9am, for the BCI community to share their pearls of wisdom with one another. The half hour webinars will involve a 15 minute presentation followed by a 10 minute facilitated Q&A, with introductions from the BCI team.
Our community is full of such amazing talent so we’re giving members the stage to talk about things that excite them so they can inspire their peers. The sessions will be a mix of expert tips and tricks and case studies – the perfect opportunity to learn something new before the week is out.
Our usual online format is an interactive ‘meeting’ but for this series we’re running webinars so that it’s easy to listen in while prepping for the day ahead or while having your breakfast! Cameras and mics will be off but you can ask your questions through the chat box or submit them beforehand.
