Will corporates embrace remote working?

By Stephen Bennie

In the past decade there have been two major developments that make working from home more efficient, the roll out of ultra-fast broadband and the technology that allows for seamless online, virtual teamwork.

However, there remained an understandable scepticism by corporates regarding the potential drop off in productivity that could result from remote working. So, office workers largely continued to work in offices despite the potential to work seamlessly from home. 

There were a few things that we learned during lockdown, ranging from home baking to how only crazy people run big cat zoos.

We also learned whether companies could operate in lockdown. Our own experience was seamless both in how our company continued our day-to-day operations, and how our outsourced service providers can also operate as normal.
