3. Boris says we all want to go back to the office. Is he right?
Mar 05, 2021 Season 1 Episode 3

Hello and welcome back to The Human Revolutionaries Show.

With weeks left before companies start their new normal - whether that is pure WFH, all back to the office or something in between, The British Prime Minister has come out saying we're all desperate to 'get back to work' (as if this has been a prolonged holiday by the way!).

Meanwhile David Solomon of Goldman Sachs says Work From Home won't work for them.

So, are we deluding ourselves and will work return to something much like it looked pre-pandemic within a few months or is a new way of working here to stay?

We are sure you've been having these conversations in your organisation so where you have landed? Have you got a sense of what is going to work best, what people want and what the office is good for? Or will you be trying different approached and learning as you go?

Is all this talk of WFH and hybrid working an 'aberration' as Soloman described it?

We would love to know what questions you've been asking yourself about the future of the workplace. Please connect with us on LinkedIn.

And please remember to give the show a star rating and leave a revieew so more people can find us and join in the conversation.
