Episode Synopsis

The COVID pandemic reshaped how we work, shifting many from office desks to home setups. As organizations consider office-forward, remote-first, or hybrid strategies, employees have their own preferences. In their new book, The New Workplace: Employee Alignment in Remote-First, Office-Forward, and Hybrid Work Organizations, Drake professors Dr. Radostina (Ina) Purvanova, Professor of Organizational Leadership, and Dr. Alanah Mitchell, Aliber Distinguished Professor of Information Systems share research showing that the key to success is alignment. There’s no single “right” model or new normal; instead, choice and flexibility drive results. Join us as Ina and Alanah discuss how YOU can find alignment across differing workplace strategies and employee preferences.
