Start with Culture when Planning your Return to the Workplace

Much has been written about returning to the workplace including common sense approaches to the obvious challenges like physical distancing, however we have found that an organization’s culture as a critical component of any plan to return to the workplace.

Careful consideration of your culture and how it can be leveraged to create a safe and supportive workplace will support and inspire employees who desperately need it. Once we are back to work, employees who feel inspired and supported will better deliver on the organization’s mission and have stronger collaboration with their peers.

Your company’s culture will help you prioritize the work required to bring employees and customer’s back, communicate what is important, make critical decisions, as well as help employees understand what is expected and what to expect.
