Even the most well-thought-out business continuity plans can go wrong. Many companies shared this reckoning after the pandemic threatened to crumble their business for good.
Now, business leaders are completely reevaluating their operational models in the future, including how and where employees will work.
Nurturing a business that is future-proof will require two key factors: technology usage and employee experience.
When identifying the right technology to adopt in the workplace, leaders should think about what can create the most seamless work experience.
Workspaces are not a one-size-fits-all approach. That means offering a variety of spaces, from open areas to private nooks, will be necessary to ensure everyone and every work style is accommodated.
If employees are still working from home, this could be accomplished by providing them with a stipend to be used towards home office supply or upgrading their connectivity.
Additionally, while the shift to remote working was very sudden, it would still be wise to curate training programs geared towards distributed workforces.
Doing so can help employees better understand the best methods of working from home, as well as express issues they have with the arrangement to their employers.
Although technology has helped companies maintain their workforce throughout the last several months, it has also hindered the wellbeing of some.
That is why it is essential for leaders to encourage their employees to set strict boundaries when working from home and dedicate time towards their personal responsibilities.
