With lakhs of people affected, the impact of the coronavirus has been deadly. In the process, this black swan event has completely altered our way of thinking and has forced organizations to bring about a change in the way they function. The world is now being forced to operate one of the largest Work from Home’ (WFH) experiments. For the next few months, every organization will be digital and will be forced to rethink their WFH policies and processes and the necessary technology infrastructure.
