Remote work has taken the world by storm since the COVID-19 pandemic began in early 2020. Workers who had never before experienced fully remote jobs were expected to conform to this “new normal.” And while it might have been hard at first for some employees, the vast majority did adjust and actually came to embrace working from home full-time.

Since the global pandemic started in early 2020, millions of employees around the globe have been working from the comfort of their own homes. What once seemed to be foreign now feels completely normal – so much so, in fact, that a lot of people would now actually prefer to work from home as opposed to traveling back and forth to an office each day.

The COVID-19 pandemic greatly changed the way many Americans work. The exponential increase in remote work opportunities and the number of people that work from home was unlike anything most of us have seen in our lifetimes. And now, as the access to safe and effective vaccines increases and the U.S. begins to return to “normal,” it’s understandable that our work situations would once again start to evolve.

Anyone who has managed or led the activities of a team in a workplace knows all too well how challenging it can be to improve the work performance of that team. Thankfully, there are some standard methods to use if you’re in a typical office environment – methods such as regular team meetings, in-person team-building exercises, recognition of individual efforts in meeting settings, and establishing a positive work environment, for example.

Beginning in early 2020, when COVID-19 shutdowns began in earnest throughout the US, many companies started to allow their employees to work remotely. This was not necessarily a gesture of goodwill to loyal workers – instead, it was an absolute necessity in order to maintain businesses through what is arguably one of the most challenging times that this country has ever faced.

Over the past 12 months, thanks in large part to the COVID-19 pandemic, remote work has become increasingly common for employees throughout the US and the entire globe. Although most of us automatically assume that anyone “working remotely” must be working from home, that assumption couldn’t be further from the truth. The fact is that people work remotely from a variety of different locations.

Since early 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic took hold and began to have a devastating impact on the economies of the US and other countries throughout the world, work-from-home jobs became the norm. Telecommuting – once considered as a perk that some employers offered to their most valued workers – became a life line to companies attempting to keep their business afloat in the midst of quarantine and widespread stay-at-home directives.

Even if you weren’t directly involved in the remote work trend that exploded in the first year of the COVID 19 pandemic, chances are you heard plenty about it. And if you held an office job prior to 2020, and did not end up working at home for at least part of the year due to the coronavirus, you might just be in the minority.
