Happy New Year, Closing the Gap readers.
This time last year many of us were hopeful that 2021 would see the end of the coronavirus pandemic, a return to a new normal and countless other advancements in the workplace and society.
Of course, many of those things didn't materialize. As we approach January, Covid cases are reaching highs once again, parents are wondering whether winter breaks will get extended to virtual learning as a result, and many of the workers who were preparing for a January return to office have been told to hold tight just a little while longer.
Although much of 2021, like its predecessor, was both unprecedented and unpredictable, in many ways it was like any other year. We saw progress and setbacks, we took stock of how far we've come and still, how far we have to go.
2022 will bring new challenges and milestones, and maybe, finally, that return to a new kind of normal. Whatever's in store, Closing the Gap will be here to share how women in the workplace are navigating it all.
What are you hopeful for as we enter the new year? What would you like to see more of from Closing the Gap in 2022? Share your thoughts with us at askmakeit@cnbc.com
