Organisations across the globe are highly optimistic about the situation and are geared up for any situation, be it considering Covid-19 as the new normal and preparing for it, or planning for a post-pandemic workplace. Key surveys showed that the pandemic has presented many category-neutral challenges for organisations as well. But it has also steered a clear opportunity for organisations to rethink what type of workplace they want to return to. We are already seeing less pushback from C-level executives when it comes to implementing new initiatives so now is the best time for organisations to be looking at what long-lasting changes they want to make.
