Life after lockdown, a TechRepublic Cover Feature

All of us are impacted (directly or indirectly) by the working conditions imposed on us by the COVID19 global pandemic. Some of us though it would be a short-term “fix”, others saw an extreme change in workspace coming, perhaps not as soon, but they saw it coming.
