Recently, a tiny, invisible virus sent the world into their homes. It showed us that the life and work as we know them can change dramatically at any time. Suddenly, organizations around the world, even ones that were traditional and conformed to established standards, had to make the shift to remote working and online collaboration. These changes had been coming for a long time, with or without the virus. In many ways, working in the digital-only world was already becoming the new normal. A pandemic among other world events accelerated these changes, without giving much notice or choice to employees and employers.
With millions of dollars at stake, organizations today appreciate the need to take head of this pace of change. It is about time we craft our strategic response to change, with learning at its front and clear.
