According to a recent article on Forbes.com, “Remote and hybrid work models are here to stay, and companies that adapt, innovate, and create a culture of trust and flexibility will thrive in the long run.” While that is certainly true, the list leaves out one crucial success factor: the need to implement processes and strategies that foster employee engagement. When employees are engaged, they are emotionally invested in and connected to their work. Obvious signs of engagement include a sense of pride in the work, a high level of enthusiasm, and a willingness to “go the extra mile” on behalf of the team or organization. This results in greater retention, increased job satisfaction, lower absenteeism, and better customer service.
In a remote or hybrid work arrangement, many of the traditional means of boosting employee engagement are no longer feasible. Compounding the challenge is the fact that no definitive playbook exists for engaging remote workers — every organization and team will have its own approach. The good news is that by implementing a few simple but powerful strategies, engagement can be significantly amplified among your remote/hybrid employees.
In this enlightening and fast-paced webinar, we’ll explore some of those strategies, including:
Employee engagement is more than just an HR fad—it’s something that can truly make the difference between average results and exceptional results for your team or organization. This was always true, but in a virtual or hybrid workplace, implementing strategies for employee engagement to flourish is paramount.
For managers of remote/hybrid companies; leaders looking to improve company culture; training and HR professionals; independent consultants; or any managers delivering training, this webinar will show you how!
Managing a remote workforce requires more than just smartphones, Wi-Fi, and webcams. It requires having the right employees in the right jobs with the right skills and resources. And it also requires managers with the know-how to communicate effectively, maintain a sense of community, cultivate teamwork, and develop relationships built on trust.
Managing Offsite Employees positions managers of a remote workforce for success with a half-day program packed with self-assessment exercises, real-life scenarios, practice activities, and more.
