The Shift to Virtual During and After COVID-19: A Young Professionals Dialogue

They say to be careful what you wish for. During the coronavirus pandemic, many millennials are finally seeing work meet their expectations. The transition to remote work has forced stronger professional relationships, an adaptive culture, increased flexibility, more innovation, and enhanced technology and professional development. Yet we pause and ask ourselves, “Is this really what we wanted? Will this be the new normal? Can we even compare this to reality?”

Are you a young professional pondering these same ideas and curious at what the future holds? Hear from a panel of your peers coping with COVID-19 and how they are forging ahead. This virtual meet-up will facilitate open discussion and provide a comfortable space to be vulnerable and honest about what the pandemic is teaching all of us.
