“ The biggest challenge is giving everyone time and focus. Truly engaging your workforce in the mission, vision and values of your organisation takes time.” JOE PALMER, COLT DCS


Business leaders need time to put a well-thought strategy in place, managers need time to connect that strategy to reality, and their teams need the time to deliver the actual work.


“Employees want to feel that


they have the ability to do their own their work, be creative and solve problems. Businesses need to come up with a robust list of the things the company or team isn’t going to do, or things that they will stop this year.


“Providing employees with the


clarity on what is important, then providing autonomy in allowing them to carry out their role is the best way to drive sustainable engagement. HR has a unique place at the table to help guide managers and leaders into providing an outstanding workplace for employees, which in fact, should be the main focus.”

will manage that new way of hybrid working into the future,” he says. Aoife O’Sullivan, Greenlight


Digital’s Head of People, says, “From winning business to hiring new employees, we’ve seen a huge improvement in efficiency and cost by harnessing technology to work remotely. Ensure your HR team is educated on the legality of hiring remote workers from different countries and see the restriction of physical travel as an opportunity to grow in the digital sphere, rather than remaining yoked to traditional ways of doing business.”
