How will we work in the future? In the resonance lab of combine Consulting, we explore these questions and invite exciting guests to share their perspectives. In this episode, two well-known voices from the world of work meet: Prof. Jan Teunen and Michael Trautmann. Together with combine managing director Matthias Pietzcker, they discuss how work is changing, what role technology plays, and why offices need to be more than just places of efficiency.
It quickly becomes clear in the conversation: The way Frithjof Bergmann once coined the term „New Work,“ it is no longer understood everywhere today. Home office and remote work have taken precedence in the discussion about meaningful work. Is this really effective on the path to the future of work?
Michael Trautmann, co-founder of the podcast „On the Way to New Work,“ talks about the rapid technological developments – from artificial intelligence and robotics to new forms of organization – and their impact on the world of work.
Prof. Jan Teunen brings the perspective of value-oriented leadership and its idea of „offices as greenhouses for potential development.“.
The discussion revolves around central questions:
The conclusion of the episode is optimistic: there will always be work – the challenge lies in shaping it in such a way that it empowers people, provides meaning, and opens up spaces where the future can grow.
