Call for Chapters: Innovation Capabilities and Entrepreneurial Opportunities of Smart Working

Since the Covid-19 outbreak, work and learning/teaching activities moved online, predominantly. Despite the indiscussed efficiency of smart working (SW) and distance learning (DL), some issue arisen, mostly regarding the effectiveness of these methods. As instance, some researches are underscoring that smart working may lead to an increased probability of burn-out. Other researchers were concerned with the low circulation and sharing of informal knowledge. Anyway, there are still few studies that investigate the negative and positive effects of SW and DL. Though, this theme will assume a paramount relevance in future, especially for its dramatic real impact on the business and social life.

This book aims to investigate this phenomenon broadly, in order to provide a fresh and ground-breaking knowledge that can be applied by decision makers to make informed decisions.
