I am a huge fan of Malcolm Gladwell (and not just because he is Canadian and also went to the University of Toronto). Last week he kicked off a new Munk Dialogues series focused on the world after COVID19. (The next Munk Dialogue will be with Fareed Zakaria on Wednesday, April 15 from 8 PM to 9PM Toronto time.)
In case you're not familiar with the Munk Debates, they are normally a biannual event held here in Toronto. Their mission is to help people rediscover the "art of public debate" and they do that by convening some of the world's brightest and most creative thinkers. Right now they are doing that online.
In this Q&A with Gladwell, they touch on a lot of the topics that we are all debating right now on Zoom calls with our colleagues and friends. When will we get back to "normal?" What will change forever? Is working from home the new normal? Will people still want to go for Mandarin buffet? I won't spoil it for all of you, but I did want to mention three points that I found myself agreeing with (I guess that is partially spoiling it).
