Summary
The COVID-19 pandemic represents an unprecedented national experiment in remote management. Now, eight months in, we’re having to entirely redefine productivity-- not just measure it. With team members reduced to boxes on a zoom screen or cautiously beginning to go back to a changed office environment, forward thinking leaders are seeking ways to build institutional resilience by over indexing on purpose - with some finding surprising advantages to the distributed workforces. Enlightened corporate leaders are taking a wider view of corporate performance and employee satisfaction, while prioritizing the wellbeing of their workforce.
