Edited by Joyce Yoo

With remote work becoming mainstream during the pandemic, there's been much discussion and debate around how to keep employees productive and the type of work setting that is optimal for an organization's success. Big decisions must be made about how and where people work and the setup that makes sense in the long run. In a new episode of the McKinsey Talks Operations podcast, Naomi Hudson, Phil Kirschner, and Martin Rosendahl delve deep into the challenges and opportunities arising from new ways of working, and what we can expect as the new normal. Join the conversation on new hybrid working models, productivity, digital technologies, real estate footprints, attrition, leadership behavior and more—and see how the future of work will take shape.
