But will they want to? Will employees try to hold on to working from home? There is a lot to say in favour of working at home: avoiding traffic jams, productivity and a better work-life balance. And are these advantages more important than face-to-face conversations? We've made an enormous transition: working from home, online meetings, digital signatures and approvals at a distance, in a couple of weeks it all became possible. To (partially) keep these processes, senior management teams will need to rethink thrust. What are the consequences of this new normal and how will it affect the way we do our work? Guests:
