‘Global pandemic’ is not a term we throw around often, and a reality we certainly didn’t see coming for the 2020 year, or our lifetime, for that matter. Now, a few months on, with restrictions easing and the initial panic subsiding, we’re seeing a level of optimism returning to the business world. But, can it really get back to ‘business as usual’?

It’s almost impossible to put words to the scale of the disaster at hand; today, my first day back at work and not only is the air heavy with smoke but emotion.
