The Great Reset: How the pandemic has changed work/learning

Details

About the topic:
Until early 2020, the future of work was mostly Theory, but in a few short months it became Practice. After a year of seismic change, and now that some economies around the globe are starting to envision a post-pandemic world, what has changed, and what may remain? How can those who lead in organizations navigate the shift toward new models of work and learning? And how can we all ensure that we build a human-centric future of work?
