Many of us are discovering new possibilities in lockdown and also wondering what the future might look like.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019re questioning the ways that we have been used to working all these years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Whether work simply stopped or was conducted exclusively from home, there was a sudden and unavoidable disruption. And disruption always comes with an opportunity for reflection and a fresh look.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s a digital transformation going on, and for many individuals and organisations there will be no going back to the old ways.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s make two confident predictions:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. First, we\u2019re going to be more virtual than before. We\u2019ll settle on a new mix between home-working, and our old office and conference habits. When we add in the \u2018third space\u2019 of local cafes with wifi, it will be a more congenial blend.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Second, we\u2019ll be more global. We are engaging with new communities, often irrespective of geographical boundaries (though time zones are a constant new consideration).<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. And third, we can wonder…\u00a0Is a radically new set of social arrangements emerging or will we revert closely to life as before? What\u2019s important to retain from our lockdown experiences? And what good questions can we ask each other to help us flourish with what comes next?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
