Whilst there is a need for more flexible working practices in our industry most of what we do requires teamwork and close interaction with colleagues. There is in my view (and that of those interviewed for this article) no substitute for face to face contact with colleagues for a productive and fulfilling work experience. Let’s hope that in 2022 we can return to office working as the norm for the sake of both our business and mental health.
