AGLOBE & MAIL BEST BUSINESS BOOK OF 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic forced an unprecedented experiment that reshaped white-collar work and turned remote work into a kind of "new normal." Now comes the hard part.

Many employees want to continue that normal and keep working remotely, and most at least want the ability to work occasionally from home. But for employers, the benefits of employees working from home or hybrid approaches are not so obvious. What should both groups do?

In a prescient new book, The Future of the Office: Work from Home, Remote Work, and the Hard Choices We All Face, Wharton professor Peter Cappelli lays out the facts in an effort to provide both employees and employers with a vision of their futures. Cappelli unveils the surprising tradeoffs both may have to accept to get what they want.

Cappelli illustrates the challenges we face by in drawing lessons from the pandemic and deciding what to do moving forward. Do we allow some workers to be permanently remote? Do we let others choose when to work from home? Do we get rid of their offices? What else has to change, depending on the approach we choose?

His research reveals there is no consensus among business leaders. Even the most high-profile and forward-thinking companies are taking divergent approaches:Facebook, Twitter, and other tech companies say many employees can work remotely on a permanent basis. Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, and others say it is important for everyone to come back to the office.Ford is redoing its office space so that most employees can work from home at least part of the time, and GM is planning to let local managers work out arrangements on an ad-hoc basis. As Cappelli examines, earlier research on other types of remote work, including telecommuting offers some guidance as to what to expect when some people will be in the office and others work at home, and also what happened when employers tried to take back offices. Neither worked as expected.

In a call to action for both employers and employees, Cappelli explores how we should think about the choices going forward as well as who wins and who loses. As he implores, we have to choose soon.

Beyond graphic designers and folks that game or watch 4K movies - there really is no reason to order laptops with resolutions higher than FHD*? Money would be better spent on making sure the screens have at least 400-500 nits?

I agree. FHD is more than enough for laptops. If someone needs more screen real estate, get 27" monitor.

4K introduces to many issues wirh scaling, especialy on Linux.

4K makes sense for designers/video editors, but not for regular Excell tasks.

All our laptops are 15.6" with 1920x1080. They all come with a minimum spec of 256SSD and 8 GB of ram. Depending on who they are they might get 16GB of ram. None of my users have ever asked for anything higher than that even if they do basic cad work it is sufficient.

WIndows is still jacked up when it comes to displays and graphics cards. On the Mac, Retina displays are the norm and are wonderful- I see the difference every day when I have to use crappy PC screens at work.

For standard business work there really is no need to go above 1080p. Considering that some laptops still scale by at least 25% for 1080p for 15", that resolution can still be overkill, especially for those who are older.

I have a unique case. We have a old proprietary software (written in the late 90s) that does not scale and requires at least ****x900 resolution to display all functions. Most of the laptops only go up to 1366x768. All of our work from home staff get sent home with at least one x1050 or x1080 monitor, if not a full workstation setup with a dock, because of that requirement.

Thank you for your message. I am currently in the office with email access. Due to the volume of distractions, I will not get any work done. Please expect a reply between 8 p.m. and 11 p.m. when I am home from the office trying to squeeze an entire workday into a few uninterrupted evening hours.

Because my employer overextended on corporate real estate, I am working a hybrid schedule. I am in the office today, technically able to respond to email, but unlikely to do so. The pressure to support the urban ecosystem is overwhelming, and if I do not spend seventeen dollars a day at Sweetgreen, the economy will collapse, and the concept of downtown will go the way of the dinosaurs.

The Office of Work-Based Learning and Apprenticeships (OWBLA) develops and implements a framework of Work-Based Learning with the goal of developing a skilled and ready workforce statewide. This office assists employers in expanding capacities around Work-Based Learning through targeted resources and tools. OWBLA also coordinates a network of partners that support and impact work-based learning programs and manages more than $6 million in Department of Labor funding.

If you make your notebook available for other people to edit, your friends can work on the notebook at the same time as you. This works well for notebooks where you are collecting information from a group of people, such as a brainstorming session or a group project. The notebook functions like a wiki where everyone contributes. You can see who did what, and you can revert a page back to a previous version if necessary.

If you or other people have OneNote 2010 or later, you can work in the OneNote desktop, web, and mobile applications while other people are working on the same notebook. You can share the notebook in OneDrive, just like Excel, Word, and PowerPoint documents, but you can also share the notebook in OneNote 2010 or later.
