It’s been a long year for everyone — including everyone impatient for Wonder Woman 1984 to come out. It was set to be out last Christmas, but got moved to being a summer 2020 release. Well, that didn’t happen (’cause, you know, pandemic), and it’s been moved several more times since before finally hitting HBO Max on Christmas.

Los Angeles actor Spencer Trinwith was excited about having a small part in the film, but has had to wait as the clock kept on ticking and the movie ultimately got a direct-to-streaming release (while also playing in theaters, where they’re open, at the same time).

“I’m sure that there’s a lot of things that I don’t know, in those boardroom meetings,” Trinwith said. “It was unfortunate that this pandemic hit when it did, but I think it’s the right thing to hold off until there’s proper [movie theater] protocols, and they feel financially like they can make those accommodations too.”

Among the challenges organizations and professionals faced in 2020, none were more momentous than those having to do with the way we work. Professionals around the world quickly learned how to shift to video-conferencing platforms, juggle parenting with work meetings (often in the same room), and accept that business travel was nonessential—all while maintaining a high level productivity.

So what’s in store for 2021? And how will it impact your career?

Below, based on my 25 years as a staffing industry executive as well as research gathered over the last few months from the 325 global offices that comprise the MRINetwork, I’ve identified what will likely be the top workplace trends in 2021 (purposely excluding “remote work” because I don’t think anyone needs a reminder that remote work will continue into the New Year).

Following the discharge of his earlier singles this 12 months, “Take You To the Stars” and “Come Child Shut,” Panda$tackz swaps his classic bluesy romantic swagger for a gritty new Chicano rap, “Pancho Pantera.” The video is a playful homage to Pancho Pantera, an animated character from the Fifties used to advertise the nutritionally-supplemented model Choco Milk in Mexico and places a lighthearted satirical spin on the opulence that’s frequent in music movies for the style with out casting judgment. As for the track itself, the driving beat and assured lyrics might make even the staunchest wallflower wish to dance…no less than a little bit.
