The remote workforce has grown significantly since the pandemic. We have seen millions of workers go home and continue to produce across the globe. We have taken leaps and bounds in utilizing our accessible technology to push forward with global business needs by quickly switching gears and moving towards a remote work environment for sales and service.
Remote work cultures do cause a challenge if not many challenges. One has to be prepared for a different kind of engagement with the workforce. One that requires a more personal reach out and extension. The social aspects of a remote workforce are also a sensitive matter.
The most important area to be addressed when any workforce is remote or new hires are brought on, is how to deal with isolation factors and feelings. The importance of real time leadership and management and support is critical to the success of employees in this work platform.
