How Cubicles, Telecommuting, Personal Computers, and Email Shifted the Way We Work

How Cubicles, Telecommuting, Personal Computers, and Email Changed the Way We Work 5 Aug 2020 --- Can a brief history of the modern office help us understand changes happening today? Offices, and the ways we use them, are continually evolving. We identified four key moments in the history of modern offices, then asked HBR readers to share their memories of those disruptive transitions and tell us how the changes affected the ways they work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- At Harvard Business Review, we believe in management. If the world’s organizations and institutions were run more effectively, if our leaders made better decisions, if people worked more productively, we believe that all of us — employees, bosses, customers, our families, and the people our businesses affect — would be better off. So we try to arm our readers with ideas that help them become smarter, more creative, and more courageous in their work. We enlist the foremost experts in a wide range of topics, including career planning, strategy, leadership, work-life balance, negotiations, innovation, and managing teams. Harvard Business Review empowers professionals around the world to lead themselves and their organizations more effectively and to make a positive impact.
