While technologies prior to the pandemic were already transforming the way we work, the pandemic itself accelerated the way we work and relate to each other. 
 
Someone who has thought (and done) a lot about these issues is Wendy Pfeiffer, our guest for this episode of Modern Business Operations. Wendy is the CIO of Nutanix, which makes an OS that runs on any hardware in any public cloud. She’s responsible for all the technology of the business as well as employee productivity.
 
Host Sagi Eliyahu starts the conversation by asking Wendy how she sees her position, which she articulates as striving to marry technical competence with operational excellence. 
 
Sagi and Wendy also discuss:
The future of work as seen from a Millennial perspective How Nutanix shifted to a mostly-remote business over the last two years The opportunity to create a more diverse workforce as a result of moving to remote
