This week marks one year from our original HR Happy Hour show on the pandemic, Episode 415 "Addressing Coronavirus in the Workplace” and what a year it has been.  We discuss our initial questions and predictions from 2020 and take a look at how our lives have changed during the pandemic, in both work and in personal wellbeing.  We also take a look ahead with thoughts for the future that need to be top of mind for HR and business leaders moving forward, as we begin to feel optimistic about the return to work, events, social gatherings and more.
