Steps to Prepare for the Post-Covid Bounceback

This crisis has unleashed new ways of working and challenges leaders and managers to inspire people they haven’t seen in person for weeks. It has created a more human focus for many businesses as they support people through bereavement, illness, homeschooling, anxiety and maintaining mental well-being.

As we look beyond the short term, here are the three key opportunities that will help create great places to work and that will assist in delivering improved performance and greater productivity:
Key Opportunities to Create Great Places to Work
  • Organizational Design- How do we rewire our companies so that we allow people to work flexibly, retaining the work-life balance they desire and need, yet still feel that they belong and are part of the team? This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to structure work differently, to change the organization’s rules of engagement, break silos and create new operating models which provide both increased efficiency and a more inclusive culture.

  • Leadership- It has been transparent throughout the crisis that we’ve seen both the best and worst of leadership. Many leaders and managers have been shown to not have the capability to engage, motivate or inspire the people that work for them. In many HR functions we have recognized this for years but have turned a blind eye if problems weren’t created and tasks got completed. We need to assess, develop and sometimes remove the managers who aren’t able to empower and get the best from our people.

  • Technology- We have not invested enough in this area. At the start of the crisis we needed data on our people and the majority of business struggled even to get the basic information about their workforce. If 60% to 70% of an organization’s cost base is people, surely having data on this asset is important! We need good systems that can provide the data that allows us to optimize our performance. Let’s move on to provide a great employee experience, where employees are tech-enabled and have the tools to do the job.

HR has never been as important as it has been during the Coronavirus crisis.
Its strength is demonstrating that commercial success can best be achieved by motivating, developing and coaching people, and creating great places to work.

As the world moves slowly towards a return to work, the challenges will become greater for HR. Some key questions HR leaders should be asking include:

  • Who do you bring back to work first, and how?

  • How do we ensure our workplaces are safe?

  • What do we retain in terms of new ways of working that appeal to staff and potentially make us more productive?

The moment is upon us for HR leaders to grasp this opportunity to make a huge impact on their organizations culture and performance. Let’s not play it safe, let’s reinvent.
