Flexible and Hybrid Workplaces Virtual Masterclass

While more workers can return to the office as COVID-19 workplace safety rules are relaxed, many people still prefer to work remotely for at least part of the time. In the new normal settings, organisations have increased the need for workplace flexibility and move flexibility to the forefront of organisations’ agendas. First of all, advancements in technological tools have make it possible for employees to work anytime and anywhere. At the same time, diminished boundaries between work and personal time lead to overwork. Secondly, globalization and the resulting shift toward operating across geographic and time boundaries have increased work commitments for many employees. In order to increase productivity without increasing headcount, employees have also expanded their work hours and are taking less vacation in order to respond to increasing demands. Additionally, demographic shifts—such as aging population in the workplace and the dramatic increase in dual-career couples in the workplace—have changed the profile of the typical employee and his/her work/life needs. In the midst of all of these trends, the new generation of employees comes to work with different expectations about what work means to them, the role it plays in their lives, and how work is defined. Crown Leadership International Group’s Flexible & Hybrid Workplaces Virtual Masterclass will bring together industry leaders to discuss pressing issues surrounding workplace flexibility in the new normal.
