In the past five years, the workplace has transformed, with remote and hybrid models becoming common and creating new challenges for fostering community among employees.

Building a thriving community is about more than virtual coffee breaks; it requires creating spaces where genuine connections flourish, aided by technology. This episode of GHC explores how tech bridges distances, enhances communication, and fosters collaboration, all while keeping human connections at the forefront.
