The novel coronavirus—known as COVID-19—has changed the way many organizations are doing business. For example, it has caused a major disruption in global supply chains, and everyone from automakers to grocery stores are running out of parts and products. It’s also caused many companies to encourage their employees to work remotely to adhere to social distancing recommendations. How has your organization been affected by COVID-19? What is it doing to ensure business continues?
