In this episode, I'm joined by Andrew Tomich , Director at A&Co Recruitment Partners , to explore how divorce impacts the workplace from leadership and productivity to culture and wellbeing. Andrew shares what happened when a senior colleague went through a complex separation and how empathy, flexibility, and communication became the foundation for getting through it together. We talk about the ripple effect personal crises have inside organisations, why traditional leave policies fall short, and how initiatives like "Life Leave" are changing the way businesses support their teams. It's a conversation about leadership that sees the person behind the role and why humanising the workplace isn't just good for people, it's good for business.
