00:00 - 00:02 | We're bringing workers back into the office |
00:02 - 00:04 | Very soon. |
00:05 - 00:06 | I'm a bit depressed |
00:07 - 00:08 | Why? |
00:08 - 00:11 | What's the problem? |
00:12 - 00:13 | Well, the COVID-19 pandemic |
00:13 - 00:16 | Has really helped me rethink |
00:16 - 00:18 | Work-life balance? |
00:18 - 00:21 | Yes, work-life balance. It's proven to me |
00:21 - 00:25 | that many of the corporate assumptions |
00:25 - 00:27 | around face-to-face interaction, |
00:28 - 00:29 | teamwork, collaboration, and productivity |
00:30 - 00:33 | are false. Introverts in particular are far more productive |
00:34 - 00:37 | when working remotely and free from distraction. |
00:37 - 00:38 | You can keep working from home. What? |
00:39 - 00:41 | You can continue working remotely. |
00:41 - 00:44 | Seriously? I don't have to go back? |
00:44 - 00:46 | Remote working is here to stay in the post-COVID economy. |
