Join us for the leadership professional development event of 2023!
Gallup published a study of more than 8,000 remote-capable workers to learn what they prefer, what they see as the future, and what they plan to do if their company changes directions.
Fifty-six percent said their job can be done remotely today, and only 20% said they believe entirely on-site will remain a valid strategy, down from 60% in 2019. Only 6% said they want to work entirely on-site. That means 94% of employees surveyed want a more flexible strategy.
As business leaders in recent years, we have evolved how we manage our in-house and agency teams in a virtual environment. We’ve had to learn new techniques to communicate with our teams, give more grace, and redefine how we balance our personal and professional lives.
Recent data suggests that employees who trust their managers, teammates, and leaders are more likely to absorb organizational change. One way to establish trust is to be more transparent about previously undocumented work expectations.
Designing a set of norms to set boundaries around work expectations and generate buy-in from your teams will show leadership, demonstrate that you care about their well-being, and ultimately see a reduction in employee turnover, which will positively impact your firm, consultancy, or company.
Mark Mohammadpour, APR, Fellow PRSA, who led remote and hybrid global account teams at Edelman and Weber Shandwick, will deliver relatable, practical, and immediately actionable steps for leaders and emerging leaders to prioritize well-being and run well-engaged hybrid and virtual teams.
