Bruce Mayhew Consulting will help you navigate change as you embrace working from home for your team. Our job is to help you create a strong culture where employees are healthy, happy and productive.
Working From Home Is On The Rise.
While some aspects of traditional leadership like creating a vision and executing on strategy continue to be critical, todays leader needs many other skills in order to lead effectively. Two of the most important skills of today’s leader are motivating and inspiring their team. Another critical skill is to establish a corporate culture that will attract and retain top talent… and to do that more and more organizations are embracing work from home options.
What considerations help you support your decision to embrace a work from home strategy?
Employees want flexibility - Millennials and Gen X want workplace options - choices like work from home. And most don’t want to work remotely all the time, but they do want the option
Workplace flexibility attracts the best employees to your company
Employee retention increases when work from home options exist
Companies save money on business costs like real-estate when employees work remotely
Your company is facing change and you want to make sure you succeed.
Working From Home Consulting Take-Away
BMC help you develop a ‘Work From Home Strategy’ by partnering with you to explore the following steps:
What are the benefits of working from home / working remotely?
For the company / department
For employees / the team
Explore how can you prepare now to be open to change - expect change?
Together we create a project statement. What is your vision?
We identify all the way we will involve your employees (their feedback and ideas are critical)
Using employee input we build a project hypothesis… a business strategy:
Includes impact on leadership support, corporate culture, leadership and employee training, internal & external communication and technology
How to help employees create an environment that produces high quality and creative work
Establish proposed protocols to purposefully make phone calls and face-time / video conferencing a priority
How performance measurement will need to adjust (perhaps creating a Results Only Work Environment - ROWE)
Leaders looking to adopt a work from home culture must balance the four important parts of a business, namely technology, productivity, communication and employee satisfaction. Create an inter-office team to explore technology that will best serve your business and culture will be critical and the quickest way to get consensus and adoption.
