How did Eclipse Communications respond to Covid-19 and how has it evolved over the course of 2020?
Remote and flexible working practices were already a part of our operating system by choice, long before Covid-19. However, Covid-19 turned that mode of operation into the ‘new normal’.
We have evolved to an even ‘newer normal’ which balances all the benefits of remote working (less commute time, opportunity to work outside normal office hours, more family time whilst working from home) with the fundamental need for some level of ‘face-to-face’ contact with team members in an office environment.
