Summary

Summary: This article looks at what is happening in the brain during the Covid-19 Pandemic while working remotely and how to use this new information to help improve remote teams.

Key Points:

• Bridging the Gap: Communicate with the organization on how the organizations looks like at that moment, and what they would like to do in the future.
