12:00 pm ET - Coping with Sudden Remoteness and the Permanent Impact of COVID-19 on the Future of Work (by Hrishikesh Pardeshi, Co-founder of Flexiple, Remote Tools & Remote Clan)

A month or so back, I was curious to understand objectively how Covid-19 has affected our work-life and what permanent impact the crisis will have on remote work.

So, we spoke to ~1000 people about -

1. Their experience working remotely suddenly
2. How prepared or supportive was their company?
3. Does their company have any long-term plans around remote?

In this session, I will focus upon -

1. Statistics & findings based on our survey
2. Lessons/ best practices to tackle the points mentioned in the survey
3. What the future of (remote) work looks like - tools, communities, companies
