Navigating any change is hard. Navigating a sea change calls for even greater reserves of skill, savvy and resolve. And yet that’s exactly what HR leaders of organizations large and small are being asked to do – navigate unprecedented change to the workplace culture imposed by an ever-changing pandemic. You’re experiencing in real time what statistics from a recent LiquidSpace survey bear out:
These are significant findings, to say nothing of uncharted waters, but somebody has to lead the way. And whatever your official title – Diversity VP, Senior Director Inclusion & Diversity, Chief Equity & Inclusion Officer – let’s face it, you’ve effectively become your company’s new Chief People Officer. Your job is putting the needs of your people first. Your challenge is to deliver workplace happiness.
At LiquidSpace, we’re here to help. Our job is to arm you with the capabilities – make that the superpowers – needed to deliver employee happiness by making true workplace choice a core part of your workplace strategy.
There’s a reason more than 80 percent of US companies have turned to a hybrid work model, according to a recent survey by one national brokerage firm. For organizations of all sizes, it’s helping to alleviate pain points that either surfaced or were magnified by the pandemic during these past two years.
Let’s review the challenges you’ve been tasked to solve.
1) Attracting and retaining talent
A hybrid work strategy enables companies to recruit talent from across the globe.
2) Supporting an inclusive workplace
The right hybrid culture creates a work environment employees from all walks of life will want to be part of.
3) Supporting company culture amongst a distributed workforce
Community is a key piece in the hybrid work puzzle. Organizational growth in the new era of hybrid work depends on fostering a sense of belonging.
4) Addressing diversity
No diversity in your workforce? No chance of success. A lack of diversity in background and experience stifles innovation and promotes group think.
5) Promoting employee wellbeing and avoiding burnout
Hybrid work empowers people to work from where it works, for them. With the American Psychological Association reporting that burnout rates are at an all-tie high across professions (Source: 2021 Work and Well-Being Survey), getting employees in a good place, mentally and physically has never been more important.
6) Maintain oversight of workforce
Employee happiness is paramount. But it can’t come at the expense of fiscal oversight. How can you set up your employees for success without ceding control in spend, permissions and more is essential.
