Comprehensive, step-by-step guide provides tips, tools and templates for communicators to help employees prepare for a smooth transition to the next phase of work
Return-to-work strategies should be carefully thought out and informed by data rather than subjective opinions. That’s the key lesson from PoliteMail Software’s new Ultimate Return-to-Work Guide, a comprehensive program offered by this leading company in internal communications measurement.
“The Ultimate Return-to-Work Guide helps communicators add value and lead the process with confidence, and to measure the results of their plans.”
Senior leadership and management decisions made today about returning to work will shape employee engagement tomorrow. Some employees remain concerned about health and safety, while others are eager to get back to business-as-usual. Regardless of where they stand on the issue, employees are looking to senior leadership, and decisions are being planned now. A recent study by McKinsey reveals that two-thirds of U.S. workers say their employers either have not communicated a post-pandemic office strategy or that the shared policy was “vague.” The Ultimate Return-to-Work Guide offers actionable steps to create clear, effective policies and programs while considering both organizational performance and employee preferences.
