Projects 2021 #1: "From Enforced WFH to Hybrid Work" @Hiltigroup. Many participants report being more productive. How can we explain this? Our goal is to understand the particularities of #WFH and the effects for individual and organisational designs for #hybridwork settings

Read this timely working paper in @BeckerFriedman by @Jose_MariaRD, Nicholas Bloom and Steven Davis on SSRN: buff.ly/3nsbax9.
