The study was conducted by interviewing nine managers working in Sweden from different industries. The interviews were semi-structured, and the data gathered from the interviews were done with thematic analysis. Multiple sustained lessons and challenges regarding work design in a post-pandemic setting were detailed in the documentation. This exhaustive documentation contains insights that may be beneficial for other managers seeking to sustain the lessons they have learned from the pandemic and enhance their work design after the restrictions are lifted.
