The workforce has undergone major shifts during COVID-19. The crisis has not only accelerated the pace of these shifts but also forced us to rethink the way we work, where we work, how we organize and communicate. Since March, all of us have had to adjust to new working conditions and protocols, whether at an office, at home, or on the front lines of a factory or retail store. On top of that, many have navigated caring for family members and evolving school dynamics as the lines further blurred between work and home. The way we live changed in an instant, and the way we work is evolving very quickly. What does work look like today and tomorrow, and what trends are coming…maybe sooner than we think. As we move through the COVID-19 crisis, how are these forces shaping the consumer/ retail industry? Deloitte will host a panel on the need to operate along the work, workplace, and workforce.

Even before we faced a worldwide pandemic, supply chain challenges and large-scale social unrest, the business environment had become increasingly volatile and complex. There is every reason to believe this will remain true as we continue to move forward through the pandemic and toward the next normal. Organizations that weathered the crises of the last year often found success by employing a different type of leadership than that upon which they had depended in the past. To be flexible and adaptable, especially when large chunks of the workforce is working remotely, successful organizations have learned to be less hierarchical, more transparent, and relentlessly mission focused. This type of leadership is what retired four-star general Stanley McChrystal refers to as “teams of teams.” In this conversation with General McChrystal we will explore what it takes to build an organization that can innovate for a successful future while also being ready for the next challenge.

We are at a crossroads in Washington and in states on a number of fronts with a new President, new leadership in the U.S. Senate and an almost evenly divided Congress and nation representing a host of diverse policy perspectives. How can our industry be impactful partners in the change needed and allow businesses like ours to continue to thrive and keep the country fed? Former U.S. Representative (14th District, New York) Joe Crowley’s unique perspective as former Democratic Caucus Chairman, New Democrats Chairman, and Ways & Means Committee leader will help as all glimpse what may be ahead in this new policy environment.

In a historic shift, the share of food-away-from home yielded to more spending for food at-home, with consumer research suggesting this behavior will continue well after the pandemic. It has been an opportunity for our industry to regain ground previously lost and to re-introduce ourselves to our customers. We’ve been deemed essential, serving Americans, and representing the helping hands to offer meal solutions and further connections within communities. We’ve ramped up our capabilities for online shopping to meet consumer demand for safe and efficient purchasing, all while maintaining CDC guidelines to keep customers and the workforce as safe as possible. What does this all mean for the industry in 2021 and what can we do to capitalize on the renewed opportunities with our customers?
