Millions of people now work in fully or partly remote situations and it should be clear that we have arrived at a permanent shift in what ‘workplace’ means. But that suggests that workplace is simply the physical address at which you perform the duties of your job. The real definition is more complicated because our…
After centuries of working in an employer-sponsored workplace, many have started to settle into a new way of working. This includes a shift to at least partly remote work. Most of us experienced at least a temporary government-mandated stay at home order; some of us have chosen to continue it as we reach the three-year…
A few months ago, I had a client who was struggling to connect with her manager. This wasn’t a typical scenario of different work styles or communication challenges.

In a few weeks, it will be 2023. However, the conversation continues about whether or not to go back to work, by which I mean returning to actual physical workspaces.
