Remote work and digital inclusion

The state and local government landscape evolved dramatically over the past five years, after organizations were forced to accelerate the adoption of remote and hybrid work models previously considered impractical for public sector. While many organizations have adapted to these changes, challenges persist to balance productivity, engagement, and inclusivity in a remote government work environment. Route Fifty hosted a roundtable discussion with nine state and local government leaders from diverse roles who shared their experiences navigating the aftermaths of adjusting to hybrid work environments, bridging the digital divide, and fostering equity in service delivery. This asset captures the top five takeaways from the conversation.
