Abstract
The study aims to investigate the challenges of problem-based learning in the post-Covid-19 pandemic. The study also highlighted the situation of employees in the Covid-19 pandemic regarding psychological and financial issues and also assessed the attainability of challenges of employees in the post-Covid-19 new normal era. The study is descriptive in nature and a quantitative approach was adopted in this study. A structured questionnaire was chosen to examine the challenges of problem-based learning in the post-Covid-19 workplace. The respondents of the research were taken by the convenience sampling method (non-probability sampling technique) and the population is executives, senior executives, and managers from different IT sectors, hospitality industry, and banking sector. The study highlighted that uncertainty in future plans, remarkable changes in the world economy, innovative plans, and strategies for communications, and aspirations for adopting new circumstances are the leading challenges of problem-based learning in post-Covid-19 workplaces. The study also reveals that terrific employee stress in the new normal era, vulnerable economic and social structure, and improper human capital development were the biggest issues in the employees’ situation during the Covid-19 pandemic regarding psychological and financial issues. The logistic regression revealed that challenges of problem-based learning in post-Covid-19 in the workplace are attainable. The study also recommends that new competencies are necessary to face new normal issues, and organizations should invest more in research and development to identify the required competencies to adjust problem-based learning.
