Our work lives are now in a constant state of evolution — or struggle, depending on the company and employee’s perspective.
The COVID-19 pandemic forced many of us to work from home without warning, with businesses and workers alike hastily setting up temporary offices at home, in a spare room, garden shed, or the corner of the kitchen — but as time passed, we began to see the true impact of this enforced new way of life.
The pandemic was also a catalyst for digital transformation, remote technologies, and changes in how we are expected to live and work. Some people today have moved out of major cities and are working from home permanently; others are resisting calls to return to the office, hybrid work options are being offered as a compromise, and full-time in the office is falling out of favor.
However, WFH does require employees to either purchase or be furnished with the right tools. Some jobs, especially in tech, IT, and services may demand multiple monitors; screen-sharing accessories can be useful when presentations are being shared; and when space is at a premium, the right equipment can help workers make the most of what they have.

Screen sharing is part-and-parcel of working remotely. You may need to view, collaborate, or share content over video platforms, and a small screen can be a detriment.
A handle gadget when you’re WFH is an adapter to turn your TV or projector into a large monitor. While it can take a little time to set up, once you’re ready, you can cast content from your iOS or Android device, tablet, or PC wirelessly with a resolution of up to 4K (30Hz).
IOGEAR’s sale will end on September 30.
