The pandemic transformed how we think about work, but are we settling for half-measures? While many companies have embraced hybrid models, Prithwiraj "Raj" Choudhury, a leading authority on the future of work, argues we're missing the revolutionary potential of true Work From Anywhere (WFA).

He will also debunk persistent myths that keep organizations tethered to traditional office-centric thinking. Can mentoring only happen face-to-face? Do breakthrough innovations require chance hallway encounters? Is brainstorming always better in person? Through compelling research and real-world success stories from diverse industries and cultures, Choudhury will expose how many barriers to WFA are rooted in outdated mindsets rather than actual limitations.
