  • Remote Working is NOT Effective.....or is it?

    Since the pandemic, there has been the ongoing debates, controversies, and heck, even conspiracy theories surrounding the topic of work environments. When we say work environments we are referring to remote, hybrid, or onsite.Fast forward to today, there is most certainly a huge push from corporate leadership teams to have their employees return back to the office in some capacity. Most are leaning towards a "hybrid" model which in of itself is a confusing term. Is it one day a week in the office? 3 days? What exactly does hybrid mean as it changes from company to company.There are those shouting from the hilltops that Remote working is just not effective, while the opposing view says that it's the most flexible, productive set up you can put busy professionals in.During this live episode of The Med-Tech Talent Lab we dive deep into this topic and share our own opinions based on the specific trends we are seeing in real-time happening within the Med-Tech industry.Check it out!
