It’s safe to say 2020 has been a year of firsts. We've endured a pandemic, persevered through quarantine, and pivoted our personal and professional lives to digital as we navigate this unprecedented time. It’s clear that we aren’t returning to “normal” any time soon so the big question is, what does the workplace after tomorrow look like? According to Stephanie Mehta, Editor-in-Chief of Fast Company, as businesses start to reopen, the greatest innovators in design, technology, and workplace leadership are thinking about the “next normal”—a world where flexibility and resilience are the coins of the realm. Stephanie says adhering to this “next normal” mentality will also set leaders up to deal with future pandemics and business interruptions. So, how do we prepare now for what’s next? In this episode of WorkParty, Jaclyn sits down with Stephanie to discuss how the physical footprint of offices and work campuses will change and evolve, the impact of 2020's grand remote work experiment, and how we can best manage hybrid teams of remote and in-person workers.
