As the UK began to address the impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19), the resulting lockdown has had a huge impact on the way we work. The last months have seemed like a lifetime and we’ve had to change at a pace and scale we would not have previously anticipated or even considered workable. 

Our professional lives have had to be rapidly reassessed: some of us have been furloughed, others are finding that remote and flexible working is the norm rather than an outlier; only 30% of UK employees ever worked from home during 2019, according to the Office of National Statistics (ONS).

Our personal lives and caring responsibilities have become more complex in a short space of time.  As we work from home whether in a corner of the living room, a spare bedroom or a dedicated home office with or without interruptions from family or pets we wonder about our previous ideas over work-life balance.

Our emerging ‘new normal’ is different and we don’t yet understand what a next ‘new normal’ might look like: we know what we are going through is emergent change while we are still improving our understanding of COVID-19 epidemiology and its total impact.

A team of experienced project managers who will be familiar to many of you: Sarah Coleman, Vicki Griffiths, Ian Cribbes and Tim Lyons began to gather and collate stories, research, reflections and insight drawn from the P3M community under the heading Lessons from Lockdown.

In this webinar Ian Cribbes will provide a summary of their findings and pose the question “where do we go from here?”

Presenter: Ian Cribbes (LinkedIn profile) FAPM has worked with a wide variety of organisations within the UK and internationally, leading projects with values in excess of £35 million pounds.  Ian is a co-opted member of the People SIG committee and an active member of the Stakeholder Engagement Focus Group.  Ian now runs his own company assisting organisations with programme and project management issues and advising on stakeholder engagement processes.
