Featuring Brian Conroy, Executive Vice President and Director of North America at IDA Ireland, and Alex Clemente, Managing Director, Harvard Business Review Analytic Services (HBR-AS)
When the pandemic hit, companies had to quickly adapt their workplace strategies to keep running. Some strategies, such as the rapid shift to remote workforces, were meant to be quick-fix responses. But other responses revealed more effective ways of working.
To understand how global executives are thinking about the future of work, Harvard Business Review Analytic Services (HBR-AS) recently conducted a pulse survey among 232 executives from multiple industries and regions. Among the respondents, 92% said organizations will need to consider new workplace strategies to remain competitive, and the majority have made or are making alterations to their workplaces because of recent disruptions.
In this webinar, Alex Clemente of HBR-AS summarized the findings and insights from this survey. He discussed the pandemic’s lasting impact on global workplaces and how changes in the workplace will broaden the search for talent.
Clemente and IDA Ireland’s Brian Conroy discussed how organizations are fundamentally rethinking their workplaces and workforces. Conroy shared his perspective on the survey results and on agility, flexibility, resilience, and the role of technology.
