  10. Timewise Councils: whats changed? • “People talk about working in a Timewise way ..It’s become part of the landscape of conversations, and is seen as positive brand. Timewise has had an impact on culture of acceptability around flex.” North Dorset district council’s tri-council partnership • “Timewise is part of our transformation process ..The perception is changing from one of accommodating flexibility to seeing that it is good for business. “Leicestershire County Council • “Being Timewise allows us to recruit a more diverse workforce and help raise the standard of living for the families of those we employ…it will mean we will always be thinking “Is this Timewise?” when approaching the work that we do.’” Lambeth Council • “Where Timewise has been useful is helping the council to link different strands together, and to almost act as a checklist to confirm if they are on the right track and doing all the right things.” Stoke City Council
