        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After being forced to backtrack on plans to travel to Africa this year, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s work-from-anywhere philosophy is being vindicated by the coronavirus.</p><p>The social network’s CEO on Tuesday emailed his staff to say that employees whose jobs permit it will be allowed to work remotely forever — even after the coronavirus pandemic is over.</p><p>Dorsey added that Twitter would be unlikely to reopen its offices before September, <strong>according to BuzzFeed News</strong>, and said that business travel would be canceled until that time as well.Twitter’s in-person events are similarly canceled through 2020, and the company will “reassess its plan for 2021 later this year.”</p><p>“We’ve been very thoughtful in how we’ve approached this from the time we were one of the first companies to move to a work from home model,” Twitter told BuzzFeed News in a statement. Twitter spokesperson told BuzzFeed News.</p><p>Dorsey in February <strong>revealed his ambitions</strong> for Twitter to have a more global workforce that will allow anyone to work from anywhere after he came under fire for saying in December that he <strong>planned to move to Africa</strong> for as much as six months this year. The stock tanked and then reports emerged that activist hedge fund Elliott Management had bought a stake and was questioning whether Dorsey was the right man for the job.</p><p><strong>Dorsey backtracked</strong> from his travel-abroad at the start of March — a week before coming to a truce with Elliott. At the time, he cited the spread of the coronavirus as the reason he was bowing out.</p><p>“I had been working on my plans where I’d work decentralized, as my team and I do when we travel, but in light of COVID-19 and everything else going on I need to reevaluate,” Dorsey said on Twitter’s Investor Relations account.</p><p>Shares of Twitter were up 0.6 percent Tuesday afternoon, at $29.87.</p>]]></content:encoded>
