“The only thing that’s changed is everything.” That was Apple’s catchphrase when it introduced the iPhone 6S — a phone I had for a very long time — to the world in 2015. But that quote also applies to COVID-19. It changed everything about our lives, how we shop, how we eat, how we communicate … and how we work. Like that phone, it — and its ramifications — will be around for a long time.

Everything about our world and work culture changed in March 2020. While the Jamie Dimons, or other CEOs who don’t like Zoom meetings, may pray otherwise, there are too many technologically enlightened individuals in the workforce to ignore the benefits of remote work and assume that everything will go back to normal. Nor should it.
