The Return to the Office: A Global Perspective

Episode 81: The Return to the Office – A Global Perspective
The Status Go Partner Innovation Series strives to highlight InterVision’s industry-leading partners; their organizations, their teams and their overall technological ingenuity as we discuss various topics ranging from leadership to transformation to products and services.
In this episode, we welcome Brad Minnis, Vice President of Environment, Health, Safety and Security for Juniper Networks. Brad sits down with Jeff Ton to give us a global perspective as it relates to the COVID-19 crisis and more specifically, how they are handling the re-opening of their offices around the world. As Brad states, “Planning is everything for an event like this.” Hear the ways Juniper stuck to their overall plan, ways they were forced to deviate from that plan as they gathered new information and how technology is playing a big role in the process — most notably with contact tracing.
