Since the onset of COVID-19, virtually every employee in America and across the globe have experienced a dramatic change in their work lives, while at the same time facing new challenges in their personal lives, from health concerns to economic uncertainty to isolation from family and friends. Many professional and office employees suddenly began performing their jobs remotely and many are likely to continue to do so post-pandemic. On top of this, several incidents brought a heightened awareness of racial injustice and a renewed employer focus on committing to address diversity, equity, and inclusion.
As they look to return to the workplace, many organizations are now reconsidering their talent strategies. Through interviews with seven organizations that thrived during 2020, as well as new survey data, six lessons were discovered that will help organizations recreate work in ways that maintain productivity while enhancing their employees' experience and contributing to a healthy organizational culture. Join co-authors Robin Erickson, PhD and Barbara Lombardo, PhD, as they share insights from their new research report, Reshaping Employee Experience and Organizational Culture: Lessons from the Tumultuous Events of 2020 and 2021.
