Will the Office Survive the Pandemic?

À propos de cet épisode

<p><a href="https://www.newyorker.com/contributors/cal-newport"><span>Cal Newport</span></a><span>, the author of “A World without Email” and other books, has been writing about how the shutdown has affected businesses and the culture of work. Remote operation, he says, has raised fundamental questions about the purpose of work, its role in our lives, and how productivity is measured. While most companies are asking employees to return to the office as the pandemic eases, Newport predicts that economic forces will eventually drive an exodus toward permanent remote work. Tech companies that launched as fully remote operations, he thinks, have a head start on the economic advantages of ditching the office for good. </span></p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
