Denying such is like denying the benefits that fire or heat bring to cooking. Relatedly, teleworking is effective and can generate a lot of savings as it reduces the need for face-to-face meetings, (duty) travels, and general operations costs in the office (since electricity, water, equipment and others are already borne by staff who WFH).”

In addition, Perhaps the notion of one physical regional office where all staff are located is becoming obsolete. There might be opportunities to attract a new and talented pool of people who continue to work from their home countries, but perhaps physically travel to Manila 3x a year for nudge hub meetings where they discuss strategy, key activities, etc]]> 2020-11-19 09:12:10 UTC https://padlet.com/elyssaljw/gshc50ctifvp0lq6/wish/940469212 elyssaljw https://padlet.com/elyssaljw/gshc50ctifvp0lq6/wish/940469704 This virtual working environment forced us to think more how we can support the member states remotely;
