New ways of working (and what that means for us as humans)

How we work and where we work has changed remarkably since (and because of) the COVID-19 pandemic, notably the shift to remote and online working. Isabel will talk about what’s driving remote working – things like generational differences in working preferences among others. She also looks at the flip side of remote and hybrid working, such as concerns about connectivity, creativity and cohesion and considers what new ways of working could look like.
