Scott Thompson Show

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson: Today, we look at the return to in-person work spaces, how necessary they may or may not be nowadays, and what might come of the push back against the work-from-home model? All this amid the long haul COVID effects of ‘brain fog’ affecting the performance of workers post-infection. Scott speaks with Professor James Beck on the psychological aspect and Dr. Michael Halinski for the HR angle. A new study from McMaster University’s Offord Centre for Child Studies says addressing anxiety as early as kindergarten could reduce its harmful impacts, and that signs of anxiety at that young of an age should not be ignored. Scott speaks with Dr. Magdalena Janus. Leading Canadian universities say they intend to continue research and development with Huawei Technologies Co. – which reaps intellectual property from the partnerships – after Ottawa’s decision to ban the Chinese telecommunications giant from 5G wireless networks over national-security concerns.
