Product Description
by Philip Dewe (Author)
In this thought-provoking and timely book, Philip Dewe explores how New Zealand's response to the COVID-19 pandemic became more than just a reflection of a health crisis. It also served as a powerful moment of reflection on how we work and live.
Through a detailed examination of the country's rapid response, the evolving public sentiment, and the ripple effects of the pandemic, Dewe argues that this global event presents a unique opportunity to rethink the future of work.
Dewe delves into the psychological and social impacts of lockdowns, explores how our workspaces and lifestyles are forever altered, and challenges us to reconsider the balance between work and life and the lessons we can take forward to future crises. With deep insights into both the immediate actions taken by the government and the long-term consequences on career structures, leadership models, and societal values, this book invites readers to envision a post-pandemic world where flexibility, empathy, and connection redefine the workplace and our lives.
Whether you're looking to understand the lasting legacy of COVID-19 on New Zealand, or seeking inspiration for how to embrace change in your own life, Aotearoa New Zealand and the Pandemic offers a hopeful and informed perspective on what comes next.
