Covid-19 was the catalyst for a seismic shift in the way people work. The pandemic turbo-charged a revolution that was already underway, proving that technology can support productivity anywhere. At the same time, it highlighted the financial, environmental and human cost of traditional commuting — the waste of time and energy associated with sitting on trains or in traffic for many hours each week — and the positive impact of reducing this on individuals’ mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.

A proud advocate for the hybrid model, I help companies from around the world hone policies that allow them to make the most of it — reaping its many benefits by empowering employees to split their time between locations: the head office, local coworking centers and home.
