Transformative is an interview/discussion podcast for office-based technology enthusiasts in Yorkshire who are interested in hearing a 'human' and 'technology' representative debate modern ways of working.
Digital transformation is a large topic of conversation that houses many a rabbit holes of technobabble to dive down. Often, we get too bogged down with the technical specifics and we forget about the most important aspect… you.
Transformative is a boxxcast that talks about how digital transformation can really improve your daily life, one conversation at a time. Our entertaining panel of techsperts and thought leaders bring good conversation and interesting ideas over the series, breaking down digital transformation into more enjoyable chunks.
So, join us round the table and discover how you can make your technology feel a little more human.
This first series of transformative focuses on what is required to build a physical and digital workspace for a modern workforce. In a post covid world how do you get the most out of digital and physical infrastructure that both benefits both the business and the worker? How do you design a platform to operate your business from that is productive as well as ethically, environmentally and operationally sustainable? We deep dive into the big questions of how technology is transforming the workforce and the future of the workplace as we know it.

In todays episode is going to be interesting. In it's essence we are talking about the practical and the digital workspace. Do you need both? Can you have a purely digital office? Where do you even start with designing one?
Since lockdown, we've realised that we can work on any surface space with little more than a laptop. Because of this, our physical workplace has become secondary to our digital one, which gives us the perfect opportunity for individuals to create their ultimate individual workspace.
Weather your designing a IRL office or a purely digital workplace you still need to solve the same practical problem, how do we keep it productive?
Joining us around the table to discuss this is Jamie Hinton, CEO Razor and Jo Horbury, Head of Design, Building interiors group who incidentally have just finished building our new, York central work hub.
