The future of work is changing as we speak
Right now, we are living in a novel time rife with the COVID-19 pandemic. Most of the world is under a shelter-in-place directive with mandates about social distancing. Many can’t predict how long this will last or whether we can ever return to the way we used to live. But, the reality is this health crisis will change the way we work forever.
As companies rushed to transition most of their team members to work from home, people are relying even more on video conferencing, online chatting, emails, and social media platforms to stay in touch. Even when COVID-19 is under control, many people won’t return to the office and will instead choose to work from home indefinitely. As such, it helps to have a solution that provides the reliability, agility, and security employees need in times like these.
