Today I am with Brian Elliott, Executive Leader at Slack, to talk about the Future Forum: A Think Tank that enables leaders to reimagine work through data and dialogue to create a people centric and digital first future of work.

Lately, we hear a lot from companies "personal" experience around remote work, but we need more facts, data, research for companies to plan the long term perspective, and understand how this worldwide work experiment will define the way policies and work practices will be designed in the future.

The future forum is an initiative that provides key facts and learnings among 10 000+ knowledge workers worldwide.
