      Focused attention is essential not only for creativity, problem-solving and productivity, but also health, happiness and overall well-being. As knowledge workers left their office spaces and shifted to working from home, we have learned a great deal about the importance of focus and what is lost when it is missing. In this discussion, we speak with Dr Megan Jones Bell, chief strategy and science officer at Headspace, about what the covid-19 pandemic has meant for the way we think about protecting and building focus, both now and in the future.
