How may Covid-19 shape the future at work and best business practices going forward? Our panelist will discuss how “Sustainability, digital acceleration and talent attraction” is going to impact your work.
The past months have both raised the understanding of the degree of global interconnectedness and shown that existential challenges may require coordinated collective efforts. Awareness of sustainability and customers’ expectations may therefore further increase as we emerge from the pandemic. Questions we will ask are, such as: How can businesses materially contribute to sustainability and turn these efforts into a competitive advantage? How may digital acceleration affect the way we work and, ultimately, the agglomeration of businesses? How may these trends intersect with strategies to attract and motivate talents, promote gender equality, and construct high-performing teams?
