Full-time remote work for employees was out of the question for most companies a few short months ago, but after weathering a pandemic that changed how we work almost overnight, business owners say there are several lessons to take away from this time-the good, the bad and the unknown.
Increased reliance on technology was one of the most visible changes companies were forced to make as states enacted shelter-in-place orders. Employees' homes converted to makeshift offices almost overnight.
But the quick transition wasn't all bad.
The same convenience of technology, however, doesn't necessarily replace in-person employer/employee interaction.
"Ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic will undoubtedly be felt by businesses for years," said Express CEO Bill Stoller.
"While it's easy to take a high-level look at the damage the virus has done to companies, not everything has been negative," he said. "We have learned to be more grateful for good health, appreciate each other more and lean on one another for support. We will come out of this on the other side better thanks to the resiliency and determination of the human spirit."
