​Half the sky is partnering with Ericsson on this panel to share with you practical tips on how to negotiate for flexibility either in your current or future roles. 

The current Covid-19 pandemic has led to the building of a business case around remote working and the need for broader, flexible working options. As companies start to adopt remote and hybrid working models, the demand for flexibility is a key factor in talent movements across the world.
