The Big Themes:
· It’s a great time to connect with your customers and employees. Try new ideas, try innovation, try creativity, and don’t waste these opportunities.
· Jamming 300 people into the same footprint is a myth. There’s not a shred of evidence that the open office makes people more productive.
· Bill McDermott, CEO of ServiceNow said there will be times some people choose to work remotely – with childcare, parents, etc. – and sometimes you need to use the office as a “productivity tool.”
· Thomas.net is now in the fourth wave of a monthly survey, and a surprising number of manufacturers are reshoring back to North America.
· This is going to reshape global manufacturing for decades to come – and not just the areas we think about.
The Big Quote:
“What we're seeing is more robust hiring than we would have anticipated. Close to 40% of the companies are actually hiring right now.”
