How to make your business more agile with remote workforce management

Agility will be the most important business asset as we transition out of quarantine life.

Learning to manage a remote workforce has not been easy. Especially during a Pandemic crisis.The challenges of remote management are huge.

How do you keep your employees accountable?

How do you keep motivation high?

What are the best forms of communication that keep accountability?

What is the best way to manage the tracking of knowledge and resources?

How do tasks get tracked effectively and efficiently?

What every business is experiencing right now is the cumbersome headache of disruption. The lack of continuity is associated with shifting operations and resources from one location to another or in this case multiple locations.

The problem is simple. While there are loads of tools to choose from to keep people connected and operational, picking the right tools that most effectively manage and provide feedback on the employees as well as making them more efficient, is not easy.

As we continue to learn the challenges of working remotely, one important opportunity to recognize is how business agility is giving some companies an advantage over others. The speed at which some businesses have transitioned to remote work and have put tools and resources in place to help their employees has dramatically affected their ability to keep business going and improve their ability to work with customers.

Once state governments allow business to open back up, there will be another transition for many businesses to return to centralized operations. This will increase disruption and further complicate operational workflow. Additionally, the time spent planning for these transitions is lost and can never be recovered. This further slows operations and reduces productivity.

This current situation has created demand for a centralized management tool that can provide an end to end solution for finding and sourcing talent, creating project teams and workflows, managing communications, information, data and tasks, time management, billing and invoicing, and project management accountability. Having this tool cloud-based makes it even easier for companies to plug-in and play from anywhere without fear of data loss, time-lapse, or security breach.

Whether there is a second wave of the coronavirus, or some other catastrophe in the coming months or years, there is no doubt that business disruption is likely to be happening more consistently. As we have learned during this current crisis, the impact on one area of business has more severe effects on many other areas of business and can very quickly paralyze us all.
