By the end of 2021, 85% of organizations will have begun their return to a physical workplace plan, according to CIO’s Pandemic Business Impact research. While many may be eager to jump back in, hybrid and remote work is certainly here to stay as 59% of IT decision-makers (ITDMs) agree that the WFH shift has created a more positive view of remote workplace policies & is impacting how they will plan for office space, tech staffing and overall staffing in the future.
