This book examines how Human Resource Management, organisations, leadership and people have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, what organizations can learn from this, and how these new experiences could be applied in the 'New Normal'. This book brings together the new knowledge that exists around remote leadership and organizational practices, relative to pre COVID-19 studies, and the experiences learned during the pandemic. Key discussion themes focus on the role of distance in organisations, HRM and leadership, the sustainability aspects involved, innovations and knowledge development achieved, the role of digitalisation and new requirements and possibilities for management post COVID-19. This book is relevant for academics, students and practitioners in the fields of Management, Leadership, Human Resource Management, Sustainability, Innovation, Organisational Psychology, Digital Transformation, Change Management and Crisis Management.
