In this unpredictable year, talking about the office, relationships with colleagues and productivity has had a different meaning than usual. Companies have been forced to rethink their workplace safety strategies and smart working has become a necessity for many workers. The issues that have shaped 2020 have acquired a more intimate value, entering in our home sphere and moving increasingly into the digital and virtual world. Let’s take a look at some of the most read stories on Landscapes.
