Over the last few years, the way we work has changed dramatically. We have transitioned from working in an office to working from home at scale to hybrid working. While this transition was challenging at first, we now expect to work from any device, on any network, in any location at any time. So the big question now is, how can we make work better? How can we improve the future of work? In this episode of Tech Talk Daily Podcast, I am joined by Doug Dennerline, CEO and Chairman, and Jamie Aitken, VP of HR Transformation at Betterworks.  as our special guests. Betterworks is a company that aims to help HR and business leaders make work better by providing innovative HR tech solutions. Doug and Jamie shed light on some of the most pressing HR tech trends shaping the future of work. They discuss employee-first work culture, new HR tech trends, pay transparency, quiet quitting and firing, and the role of tech in improving DEI. They also provide valuable insights and advice to business leaders on staying ahead of the curve and leveraging the latest HR tech trends to make work better. One of the key themes that emerges in our conversation is the importance of putting employees first. Doug and Jamie explain that an employee-first work culture is critical for building a motivated and engaged workforce. In today's hybrid working world, creating a culture that fosters collaboration, communication, and connection is more important than ever. HR tech solutions can play a vital role in facilitating this process. Another topic we explore in depth is the role of tech in improving DEI. As Doug and Jamie explain, HR tech solutions can help businesses identify and address bias in the hiring process, track diversity metrics, and provide training to help employees understand and embrace diversity. Toward the end of the podcast, we discuss the newly released book "Make Work Better" and who it is aimed at. The book is a collaboration between Doug and Jamie, providing insights into the trends shaping the future of work.  They give us a sneak peek into what readers can expect from the book and share their favorite book or song that has inspired them. Overall, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in making work better and staying up-to-date with the latest HR tech trends. So tune in, sit back, and enjoy the ride as we explore how tech is shaping the future of work!
