John Mackey on Covid's impact on corporate culture

A company is ultimately about relationships, about trust, and about partnership.  And the hardest thing in Covid has been the difficulty, other than virtually, to connect with people.  More people may work at home when this is over, but in reality, if you're going to maintain a culture, you have to have people connecting with each other, and there's no real substitute for doing that in person.
