Working from home might work for some but I can’t see those being the people that will get promotion within an organisation or business. It will also cut off the interactions that are necessary to stimulate new ideas. Can we envisage a manager that doesn’t interact with people except by zoom?
I also worry about the impact of this long period at home on peoples mental state. My wife and I are in Brazil due to the difficulties of returning to the U.K. and we have only left our house 3 times since March 2020. I am starting to worry that it will need a considerable amount of effort on our parts now to actually throw ourselves into the trauma of returning to the U.K. It will mean a mountain of paperwork and probably a much more drawn out trip, via some amber listed country that we can stop in en route, all of which will act as a barrier to taking the plunge.
Well this has "I'm a manager and need to justify my career." written all over it...
