Millennials vs Boomers | Why these execs are struggling at home

2020 saw the way we work change dramatically, with working remotely and from home becoming the new normal. But with any drastic change such as this, challenges will follow.

Many organisations had to make changes to their business models over night when the coronavirus pandemic struck, which forced them to embrace remote work following the Prime Minister’s orders to work from home where possible.

But for some, remote work was still an alien concept. For example, data from the Annual Population Survey (APS) revealed that before the pandemic around 1.7 million people in the UK mainly worked from home. While this figure seems high, this accounted for around five per cent of the UK’s 32.6million workforce, reported Business Comparison.

Therefore, it may come as no surprise to hear that some business leaders are facing more challenges than ever before as a result of this quick shift. But new research has found that one generation of leaders is struggling more than others.
