Solid article. Many similar themes to work we've done on the longer-term future in what we also call the Pandemic Era. More on that work, and a hot-off-the-presses piece on how to react to Omicron on @wef Agenda, in this thread xitter.cf/micostigan/status/1466…

The status quo for business is dead. As you may have heard at Dreamforce, we’re in a crisis of the pandemic, sustainability, workforce, inequality, and trust. Business leaders are asking: how can we navigate this uncertain future? 1/ sfdc.co/PandemicEraIntro
