The most common and impactful one in recent times which I witnessed is the shift to remote work and flexible work arrangements. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated this trend, leading many organizations to adopt remote work policies and flexible scheduling to accommodate their employees’ needs. This shift has had a significant impact on how businesses operate and manage their teams.
