She gave all her employees flexible work. Here’s how she kept it fair

November 2, 2026 · 33 min

Show notes

Sabrina Ho runs a small team of about 15 people where everyone can work flexibly. Employees are allowed to adjust their hours or step away for personal matters, if someone is able to cover their work. But when missed deadlines became a pattern, that flexibility was put to the test. On the Work It podcast, the founder of career and talent-solutions platform Half the Sky explains how she sets boundaries and addresses resentment when colleagues pick up the slack.
