#103 - Hints for a Successful Remote Work Transition

With what's going on in the world right now, many challenged with workplace disruptions.

Employers who had never considered a remote work situation for their employees are now giving it a second thought. Employees, who once thought to work from home would be a dream come true are facing their own challenges.

Uncertainty generates anxiety and tension. Transitioning to a remote work model takes a bit of time and patience to get the bugs worked out.

The Scrivener Solutions team had a roundtable discussion at our last team meeting. In this week's podcast, I share our conversation.

Our discussion included the challenges and advantages involved with remote work, both from the perspective of the employee and the employer. Each angle has very real concerns and responsibilities.

We share many of our experiences, like setting boundaries, alleviating distractions, technology issues, communication challenges, and family-time juggling.

We hope you find the episode helpful as you listen in as we pull back the Scrivener Solutions curtain.
