Did you know that, on average, we spend five hours a day checking email? It’s only gotten following COVID-19. In fact, it was found in March 2020 that there was a 100% increase in email volume to employees and a 1,000% increase in weekend volume. If you ask me, that means that there hasn’t been […]
If there’s a quote that seems to encompass the year 2021 — it’s this one from Deepak Chopra, “All great changes are preceded by chaos.” Think about that for a minute. For many of us, the beginning of 2020 was just another year. By March and April, the world as we knew it changed — […]
Even before COVID-19, remote work was having a minute.
