Video meetings have become a staple in the workplace. A recent study among senior IT industry managers shows that video meetings have a dual impact on remote leadership. Although Teams, Zoom and other tools for video meetings have become embedded in day-to-day organisational practices, their role in leadership has not been thoroughly examined from the perspective of technological opportunities and constraints – until now. Conducted at the University of Eastern Finland, the study found that video plays a dual role in leadership.
A newly released compendium, Feminism and COVID-19: How Women Fare in the Face of a Global Crisis, is revealing how women across the world were simultaneously critical for the success of the global COVID-19 response, and disproportionately impacted by the pandemic’s secondary effects, such as lost income, and increased unpaid care work and violence.
Book co-editors, Dr. Julia Smith of Simon Fraser University and Dr. Clare Wenham from the London School of Economics, gathered together a unique multidisciplinary and transnational team of authors and experts who examined nine case studies of the COVID-19 response and its global and local impacts on women from Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Hong Kong, Kenya, Nigeria and the United Kingdom.
