Last week was not normal, neither is this one. But we delivered last week. I am absolutely stunned and heartened by our organization's ability to adapt. And I am not just talking about my team. I mean the whole org. You go from coming into an office 2 weeks ago to 100% work from home....and delivery is largely not affected.
Translation: The infrastructure to provide delivery of services is intact.

Same here, for hospitals IT... Thanks to remote delivery tools (yeah Bigfix), we managed to let a lot of folks work at home with Zoom installs, VPN expansion, whitelisting stuff for network acces control, updating security software, patching, deploying a new citrix client (scary at the time), we can do 99% remotely and I'm impressed at how people are pulling together to make stuff happen so the doctors can do their thing !!! Teleclinics are now 50% of business, vs 2% before. Cool. Doing our part !
Part of me wish I was on leave like some of my friends though, it's a Cr@pload of work all while keeping the kids busy ;-)
