She believes our workplaces are going through a revolution which will allow every organisation to re-think how they are operating.
In a recent blog, ‘Our New Reality: Predictions after Covid-19′ KPMG made some predictions about how work will change going forward. They predict that remote working will increase, the 9-5 workday model will be challenged and leaders and managers will need to adapt to this change. Remote work at some level is here to stay and it is radically reshaping almost every industry.

* Fiona, what are some of the productivity challenges of remote work and what are some of the opportunities to be more productive?
* How can we keep connected with a more remote workforce?
* Email and online communication has gone up more during this time. What can you recommend to keep on top of it?
* Many organisations are using programs like MS Teams, Slack or Google Hangouts. How will this change the way we work?
