ABSTRACT

Up until very recently, the shift away from traditional office design towards more dynamic workplaces and work habits that promote wellbeing has felt relevant only to certain types of organizations, workers, demographics or personalities. The coronavirus pandemic has changed that overnight. As a consequence of self-isolation rules, many employees and organizations have been thrust into working in a completely different way. Remote working has become the norm and office buildings left empty. Organizations and their employees are having to demonstrate agility, resilience, patience and understanding to make sure that work gets done among all the disruption.
