Extinction: old work habits and hierarchies?

Send us a text

Covid 19 has changed the way we work. But has it changed how we value work?

Host Imogen Foulkes asks if our old workplace habits and hierarchies are about to become extinct. She speaks to Chidi King, head of gender diversity and inclusion at the International Labour Organisation.  

"Re-examining what we deem as a true value of a job has to be one of the outcomes of this pandemic," says King.

Cedric Dupont, Professor of International Relations at the Graduate Institute in Geneva, believes "teleworking is challenging the very mode of hierarchy" we are used to, while analyst Daniel Warner wonders who will want "to go back to the office and who would prefer to stay home?"
