| Top Ten Newsletter | Second Quarter 2021 | | Most popular with McKinsey.com readers | Dear Georgy,
This past quarter, our readers continued to explore our ongoing research and perspectives about the pandemic, but they were also increasingly curious about remote and hybrid working models—and what both the C-suite and employees are saying about them. Other top reads included articles about how to find purpose at work and why leading with laughter has never been more powerful (no joke).
