Returning to the workplace
A playbook for leaders and managers created by our Employee Experience practice
COVID-19 has fundamentally changed the social contract between employees and employers. Perhaps more than ever before, it will matter to our people (and customers) whether we demonstrate the desire and the ability to put the safety of employees and communities first. Providing psychological and physical safety should be the minimum standard for preparing employees to return, whether it’s to an office, a factory line or a retail outlet.
As we emerge in varying stages from COVID-19, leaders must reimagine the workplace. It’s an opportunity to change the way we engage our employees and teams and improve their experiences of our businesses and brands. Today leaders and managers are helping employees build organizational resilience in a pandemic. Tomorrow that resilience will be there when you tackle new business models, new skills development in the face of automation and new capabilities to thrive.
