Paradigm Shift: The Future of Work and Workplaces

Our workplaces have been disrupted like never before. The Global Work-from-Home Experience Survey was launched in April to answer many questions on the minds of workers, corporate executives, office building owners, property managers, and workplace designers.

What can we learn from our sudden national field experiment in working and running businesses remotely? How will the aftermath of the pandemic crisis influence how and where people work and the resulting need for office space, appropriate design, amenities, and work practices?

Join Kate Lister, one of the authors of this ground-breaking survey, the Center for Real Estate Entrepreneurship, and Executive Development of the George Mason University School of Business, in a discussion of data-based insights and forecasts on the future of work and workplaces.
