This book examines how Human Resource Management and leadership have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, what organizations can learn from this, and how these new experiences could be applied in the “New Normal”. The editors of this book have compiled the new knowledge that exists around remote leadership and organizational practices, relative to pre-COVID-19 studies, and the experiences learned during the pandemic. Key discussion themes focus on the role of distance in leadership, organizations and HR, the sustainability aspects involved, innovations and knowledge development achieved, the role of digitalization and new requirements and possibilities for management post-COVID-19. The editors conclude by investigating the strategic processes and factors influencing the “New Normal”. This book will be of great importance for academics, students and practitioners in the fields of Management, Leadership, Human Resource Management, Sustainability, Change Management and Crisis Management.

Digital transformation increasingly drives economic growth in the rich capitalist democracies, but orienting production around digital technologies is associated with rising inequality and spreading precarity. In Recoding Power, Rothstein outlines three tactics that workers can use to build power in the current episode of economic transition, where they otherwise lack access to traditional power-resources like unions and institutions for social protection. Drawing on four in-depth case studies of workers responding to mass layoffs at tech firms in the United States and Germany, Rothstein shows.
