As remote working becomes the norm rather than the exception for many office workers around the globe, The Nowhere Office proposes a radical new way of thinking about work both now and in the future. Offering a strategic and practical guide to negotiating this pivotal moment in the history of work, The Nowhere Office addresses the problems which beset work - the endemic stagnant productivity and crisis of stress which predate the pandemic - and the new challenges of remote working, repurposing offices for more creative interaction, managing WFH teams and satisfying the demand for more purposeful work with greater work/life balance. Drawing on history, cutting-edge research and extensive interviews Julia Hobsbawm argues persuasively that now is the time to develop something better, more meaningful, and, crucially, more workable.

Acclaimed author and social entrepreneur, Julia Hobsbawm, shows you a simpler way. The Simplicity Principle challenges the assumption that all things that are complex have to stay that way. It helps keep things as lean, simple and focused as possible. Smartphone users experience concentration interruptions every 12 minutes of the day, there are over 250 billion emails sent every 24 hours and by 2021 the internet will have created more than 3.3 zettabytes of data. Yet complexity doesn't have to dominate, complicate or clutter our lives. Based on a hexagonal model, this book shows you that it's easy to streamline and simplify both your professional and personal lives with lessons based on the natural world. For anyone who feels that life can be too much, The Simplicity Principle will help you break free of the endless choices and complexities that we face in the world today. It's time to gain control of your focus and productivity, and most importantly, KEEP IT SIMPLE.

A rapid response to the seismic changes affecting working life, Working Assumptions covers the past, present and future of work and has already been described as “a must-read for anybody concerned about the future of work” (Carl Benedikt Frey, Associate Professor of AI & Work, Oxford University).Written by award-winning writer and popular podcaster Julia Hobsbawm, whose landmark 2022 book The Nowhere Office, predicted the rise in hybrid working long before anyone else, Working Assumptions is a clear-eyed view of what Julia identifies as ‘The Amazing Age’ – a new era replete with challenge and opportunity for all working people experiencing a pace of technological and cultural change not seen in over a century.“Written with deep insights and a sharp wit, Julia Hobsbawm’s Working Assumptions is an indispensable guide to the future of work, in no small part because it roots every new trend in somewhere that we’ve been before. Working Assumptions is required reading for anyone who’s leading the way forward in the world of work – or worried about where they’re being led.” Brian Elliott, co-founder of Future Forum, bestselling author of How the Future WorksWith a preface by Professor Lynda Gratton of London Business School, Working Assumptions explores the speed and scale of the impact of Covid-19 and the eruption of Chat GPT on the world of work in six key areas: jobs, skills, the workplace, culture, wellbeing and generational attitudes. Its highly innovative and readable format contains illustration by both human artists and ChatGPT, and combines crunchy data with stories from popular culture about work, ranging from from Barbie to Beyonce’s ‘Break My Soul’; from Succession to – of course – The Office.Working Assumptions addresses the influence of America on the world of work for the past century and asks whether it will dominate as much in the future.
