In this short segment from Pro AV Today, host Ben Thomas and guest Joe Piccirilli from RoseWater Energy dive into the evolving landscape of work, emphasizing the pivotal role of reliable work systems in shaping the future of our professional lives.

The world of work is undergoing a transformation, moving towards a hybrid model that blends remote and in-office activities. Many individuals are seeking a balance that leans more towards the comfort of home. However, for this to become a reality, your home office setup, including your network and communication systems, must work at all times.

With tech failures at home, achieving that sought-after balance between home and office becomes a challenge and employers may demand more in-office presence. Joe Piccirilli highlights a compelling trend where people are investing more in power solutions, despite the prevailing notion of softening sales. This paradox underscores the increasing importance of dependable power systems in enabling the modern workforce to thrive.
