Winning The Talent War With Remote Working
Remote work is the new normal. Ongoing operations and future competitive advantage will go to those companies that leverage technology to enable flexible and remote work models. This can not only attract hard-to-find talent, but increase employee engagement and boost their productivity. Companies can dip into untapped pools of talent such as workers in remote locales, retirees, gig workers, and stay-at-home parents.
In this talk, Tim Minahan explains how to strategically create a world-class business model to offer and enable remote work, make employees happier and more productive, and attract and retain the talent you need to move your business forward.
He’ll also share insights on evolving remote work practices for the future, based on the experience of the COVID-19 crisis, including engagement, communications, security, leadership, and work/life balance.
