CORONAVIRUS AND THE FUTURE OF WORK by Aaron M. Renn 04/23/2020 The long-term effects of the coronavirus outbreak on our society and business landscape are yet to be determined. But one thing we know is that a big swath of American businesses is conducting a large-scale experiment with remote work (aka work from home). Many of them have also made large investments in infrastructure to support it; one company bought 20,000 laptops for their employees, for example. The coronavirus shutdown will create new capabilities for remote work within firms large and small, and produce a treasure trove of findings about what works well and what doesn’t. read more »* Login

That is there is virtually universal agreement that we need to practice social distancing of 6 feet or two meters to minimize the spread. read more »* Login
