I know, a lot of people can't work from home. But a lot of people - like me, for example - can. And we're beginning to see the benefit of leaving those who can work from home where they are. Even if we did go back, the offices would be very different - literally sterile, socially distant, hard to use. But many of us (including me) prefer it. Not surprisingly, " A Gallup poll last month showed that most people who are working from home want to keep doing so after the crisis abates." So - let's assume this is what happens. No matter what, it's arguable (as suggested here) that corporate education will never go back to the classroom. Even if we're in the office, we don't want to stuff ourselves into a roomful of people coughing and sneezing their personal collection of viruses for the rest of us.
