Best of 2020: Presenting Your 10 Favorite Blog Posts This Year!

It has become a tradition by now. Right on time for the end of the year, we present you for the fifth time a review of what has kept you, us and the project management industry busy in the past year. 2020 was a very special year that challenged all of us. Old, entrenched work structures had to be reconsidered within a very short period of time due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Working from home faced employees as well as companies with major challenges. This process can also be recognized in this year's top 10 article list. Home office and virtual collaboration are the most frequently read categories. Despite major changes this year, however, topics such as agile working or project management basics remain relevant. This trend also illustrates the situation: standing still can be dangerous; even within a crisis, things must keep moving forward. Let's now take a look at the top 10 blog posts on the InLoox blog in 2020. These were your favorite topics:
