Innovative Work Models for the Future with Patrick Cowden
In a world obsessed with productivity, many leaders overlook the one factor that drives it all: connection.
A recent Deloitte study found that 74% of employees want more flexibility and meaning in how they work. Yet too many companies still design systems for control instead of trust.
In this episode of The Bliss Business Podcast, we sit down with Patrick Cowden, CRO and Architect of Warmspace, to explore what it takes to build human-centered work models for the future.
Patrick shares powerful insights on:
• Why trust, not technology, defines the future of work
• How emotionally intelligent leaders build stronger teams
• The systems that create real connection in hybrid and digital workplaces
• Why love and purpose are essential to performance
