The Covid-19 pandemic triggered an unprecedented shift to remote work, made possible by a vast array of technologies. While the frequency of remote work has decreased post-pandemic, many workers and organizations are now embracing remote and hybrid work options. Technologies that proved beneficial during the pandemic continue to be used, and the explosion of AI across industries has left many wondering about the future of work and society.
Meaningful Work in a Post-Covid Age: The Impact of New Technologies presents examples of how technology can enhance efficiency and effectiveness in education, industry, and healthcare when used to support organizational stakeholders. However, it also cautions that we must consider the long-term impact of technology on human well-being. The widespread use of new technologies has resulted in lasting shifts in organizational and worker mindsets about what is considered normal, appropriate, and desirable in how and where work is performed. These changes have also impacted how meaningful work is experienced.
The book addresses the underlying concern about whether the pervasive use of technology will result in net benefits or losses to society. Technology that focuses primarily on efficiency at the expense of relational and creative needs can detract from the meaningfulness of life and work, leading to worker unrest and alienation, and potentially impacting the physical and mental health of the global population.
Meaningful Work in a Post-Covid Age presents models and tools to help leaders, decision-makers, and workers navigate their organizations and careers to find meaningful work amidst the accelerating growth of new technologies.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
