Business Unbound: A Vision and New Strategies for the New World of Work

Yesterday looks nothing like today. For some companies, the COVID-19 crisis has brought business to a grinding halt—but for others, it’s kicked things into hyperdrive. The trends that were emerging before the crisis have accelerated: Digital transformation initiatives have a heightened urgency as businesses are now required to pivot on a dime. The trend toward remote work has manifested in full. The need to reskill and upskill the workforce is now an immediate concern rather than a provision for the future. Change is not optional. How to change is now the critical question.

Unbound Business: Eine Vision und neue Strategien für die zukünftige Welt der Arbeit

Was gestern noch wichtig war, hat heute schon keine Bedeutung mehr. Für einige Unternehmen hat die COVID-19-Krise das Geschäft zum Erliegen gebracht – für andere aber hat sie die Dinge in eine Art Hyperantrieb versetzt. Die Trends, die sich vor der Krise abzeichneten, haben sich beschleunigt: Initiativen zur digitalen Transformation haben daher eine erhöhte Dringlichkeit, weil die Unternehmen nun gezwungen sind, sich auf ihre Stärken zu besinnen. Der Trend zum Home-Office hat sich in vollem Umfang manifestiert. Der Bedarf an neuen Qualifikationen in der Belegschaft ist jetzt eher ein unmittelbares Anliegen als eine Vorsorge für die Zukunft. Veränderungen sind nicht länger mehr nur optional. Vor allem wie man sich ändert, ist nun die entscheidende Frage.

From the CEO's Desk: Together, We Can Make A Difference

As COVID-19 continues to spread globally, it is profoundly changing the way we live and work. Our hearts go out to those already impacted by the virus, and we want to do everything we can to protect and support our global community through this unprecedented period of uncertainty. Since millions of people around the world turn to Cornerstone for continued learning, we wanted to use our tools to help the community during this crisis.

Business senza vincoli: una visione e nuove strategie per il nuovo mondo del lavoro

Ieri non assomiglia per niente a oggi. Per alcune aziende, la crisi COVID-19 ha bloccato improvvisamente il business, ma per altre ha messo le cose in grande movimento. Le tendenze che stavano emergendo prima della crisi hanno subìto un’accelerazione: le iniziative di trasformazione digitale sono diventate molto più urgenti poiché ora le aziende sono tenute a cambiare velocemente. La tendenza verso il lavoro da remoto si è manifestata in pieno. La necessità di formare di nuovo la forza lavoro ampliando il know-how con nuove competenze è ora un’esigenza immediata piuttosto che un pensiero legato al futuro. Il cambiamento non è facoltativo. La domanda chiave adesso è come cambiare.

Cómo cambiar es ahora la cuestión crítica.
