Embracing Transformation: A Journey from War-Torn Yugoslavia to Shaping the Future of Work (MDE571)

Leadership, Brand Strategy & Transformation - Minter Dialogue

Minter Dialogue with Zoltan Vass

In the latest episode of our podcast, I had the pleasure of hosting Zoltan Vass, a transformation director with a focus on technology, processes, and people. Zoltan's journey from Yugoslavia to the UK is not just a tale of geographical relocation but a profound narrative of resilience, adaptability, and the relentless pursuit of creating collaborative environments.

A significant portion of our discussion revolved around the future of work, particularly in the context of remote and flexible working environments. Zoltan emphasised the importance of trust, ownership, and creating a safe environment where employees feel valued and supported. He advocates for a 100% flexible work model, where employees can choose their work environment, be it the office, home, or a coffee shop, based on what suits them best.

We discuss how leaders and organisations might navigate the evolving landscape of work, including concepts such as wellness, sleep, the four-day work week, and how companies can implement shift patterns to ensure continuous coverage while allowing employees to enjoy longer weekends, thus boosting morale and efficiency.
