The document discusses key components of an effective remote onboarding program that builds company culture. It identifies four cornerstones: building connections through strong relationships, highlighting choices and personalization for new employees, measuring success over time, and focusing on company values rather than trying to directly replicate company culture. It provides examples from Ergotron's remote onboarding program that focus on these elements, such as virtual building tours, executive guest speakers, and emphasizing ergonomic choices that reflect the company's values of flexibility and well-being.
3 ways leaders can help ease workplace stress and avoid employee burnout.pdfJIGAR UNDAVIA
Leaders can help ease workplace stress and avoid burnout by showing gratitude, checking in frequently with employees, and building resilience. A survey found high levels of burnout, stress, and loneliness among employees working from home during the pandemic. Improving psychological safety requires leaders to acknowledge the toll on employees and shift to a more human-centered approach through regular appreciation, weekly check-ins, and long-term efforts to strengthen resilience against future crises. Building psychological safety now can help organizations recover from the pandemic and create a culture where employees feel safe to contribute their best work.

Workplace diversity provides competitive advantages for businesses including increased innovation, stronger team performance, and happier customers. To build a truly diverse workforce, companies must address unconscious biases, celebrate small improvements, and view diversity as a long-term goal rather than a short-term initiative. Tools like implicit bias tests and automated reference checks can help minimize biases during hiring. Leaders must model inclusive behaviors and engage employees in discussions about diversity to overcome resistance to change.

What is internal communications, and why should any company spend money on it? Learning how to improve employee communications allows for more work to be done in less time and with less frustration.
Effective workplace collaboration requires certain skills from employees and an organizational culture that supports collaboration. The document discusses key collaboration skills such as clear communication, compromise, respect, and problem-solving. It also identifies challenges to collaboration like poor communication, lack of resources, and unclear objectives. Additionally, the document provides an example of how collaboration could work effectively on developing a new marketing strategy, highlighting benefits like engagement and cost-effectiveness.
High employee turnover can be costly for businesses, lowering productivity and morale. The document discusses three main solutions to reduce turnover: 1) Improve employee engagement through involvement, recognition, and communication; 2) Invest in training and development to provide growth opportunities and prevent boredom; 3) Strengthen the onboarding process to help new employees integrate, understand responsibilities, and develop relationships that increase commitment. Implementing these low-cost solutions can boost retention, productivity, and the bottom line.
This document discusses what organizations need to provide to cultivate engaged employees. It argues that beyond just paying employees and providing basic job requirements, organizations must foster potential, autonomy, competence and relatedness. Employees want to feel that they have autonomy over their work, that they are recognized for their competence, and that they belong to a supportive team. The work environment, including supportive managers, flexible processes, and empowering principles, is critical for engagement. When organizations provide this type of environment, it can lead to innovation, productivity, retention and fulfillment among employees.
There are lots of ways to handle firing someone, but very few of us know which way is the best way. It’s an emotional situation, which not only affects the person being fired but also your business and your entire team. This is why terminating someone makes it extremely difficult to lead with your intellect instead of your emotions.
Fortunately for you, we have personal insights and conducted in-depth research on workplace termination. We’re going to share what we learned and how to fire an employee in the best and most compassionate way possible – in a way that will not make them want to retaliate against you.
The document discusses the changing landscape of learning and discusses how a new generation of learners have different expectations. It argues that learning needs to be more flexible, adaptable, and on-demand to meet these changing expectations. It outlines a shift from traditional centralized and classroom-based learning to knowledge and learning that is distributed, social, and accessible anytime, anywhere on demand.

Strategic HR: Fostering Employee Engagement via Enterprise 2.0 Technologies &...Allyis
Ethan Yarbrough discusses how organizations can foster employee engagement through enterprise technologies and strategic HR practices. He defines engagement as employees feeling involved and enthusiastic about their work. Highly engaged workforces outperform others by 20-28% and increase profits and operating margins. However, most employees are only "up for grabs" and not strongly committed. Barriers to engagement include information overload, lack of respect, distance between employees, and lack of trust in leadership. Yarbrough argues that technology tools can help by giving employees ways to share expertise, make themselves heard, find and connect with others, and be more successful. Strategic HR should focus on improving the employee experience and making the organization a better place to work through these engagement

Positive Impact of Remote Work on Companiesroeland8
In recent years, remote work has become an increasingly attractive way of doing business. This shift towards remote work, initially brought about by necessity during the pandemic, has revealed many advantages that extend far beyond convenience. However, despite these advantages, many companies have also chosen to return to on-site-only or hybrid work.
No doubt that remote work can come with challenges. But it also comes with benefits beyond managerial preferences. This is why it's worth looking at it more thoroughly and understanding the holistic potential including increased profitability, productivity, diversity, and sustainability which we will look into here.
At the same time, we believe it may be a case-by-case decision. We want to provide you with a solid foundation to make the decision for your business to have a partial or full adoption of remote work practices, and to benefit from its upsides.
As advocates of remote work, we want to share our first-hand experiences and insights from other remote-first companies. By doing so, we hope to address any lingering doubts and misconceptions surrounding remote work, while also emphasizing its incredible potential for businesses across sectors.

Business Case Scenario – Assessment 2
Managing Culture and Change 21926, SPRING 2021
Ozfone is an Australian telecommunications and technology company, which markets voice,
mobile, internet access, pay television and other services. The company has more than 5,000
employees and has been selling services to businesses, households and individuals for over 45
years.
With COVID-19 vaccinations now underway, countries are beginning to map out their roadmap
out of lockdown. For companies, it creates important challenges and opportunities as to how
they choose to return to work. That presents an interesting new dynamic for both the employer
and the employee. In 2020, Ozfone was forced to transition its employees from being physically
present in their offices to working remotely. However, at the beginning of 2021, the company
implemented the hybrid working model – allowing employees to work both remotely and in the
office. This was supported by the CEO of the company who is aware that even if a vaccine or
effective treatment will open the possibility of a safe return to the traditional workplace, remote
work will take a permanent place in the employment mix. Hybrid working models, done right,
(1) allow organisations to better achieve innovation and attract talent, (2) lead to higher job
satisfaction and autonomy of employees, and (3) define a future of work that is more flexible,
people-oriented and sustainable.
However, the way how the company approached the hybrid working model has been causing
some serious problems. One of them is that the managers hold an unconscious bias that because
remote workers are not seen in the office they work less as those seen in the office. There is

also the belief that showing up to work, having good attendance and putting in long hours is
more important than the results. Managers feel that they cannot trust that their working-from-
home employees are actually doing the work and as a result, the employees are feeling
micromanaged. The management by results (supporting employee autonomy on when, where
and how they do their work) in the company has been clearly not embraced by the managers.
Moreover, the conditions in the office space are not designed for a hybrid form of collaboration
due to insufficient technological support. Not all meeting rooms are connected to the video
conferencing software which causes remote workers to miss out on important information
because it was communicated in person. The other problem is that the way how meetings are
run has not changed from the pre-Covid version. For example, although most meetings are now
attended by both remote and in-person team members, activities such as brainstorming are done
on a traditional flipchart with paper post-it notes. This leaves remote workers feeling like they
are not part of the team. Apart from that, the physical separation of staff in the ...

Ozfone's hybrid work model has caused problems by fostering unconscious biases among managers and an insufficient technological infrastructure. As a result, employees feel micromanaged, disconnected from colleagues, and lacking support. The HR team wants to improve employee engagement and make Ozfone more attractive to talent by developing a more effective hybrid work approach. However, senior leaders are wary of changes due to past failed initiatives and change fatigue within the long-tenured workforce.

Globalization, generational shifts, new attitudes towards work and the consumerization of IT are driving business leaders to reconsider the best ways to recruit, train and manage their precious talent. These changes in the way people work are an opportunity to put employees at the center of the business strategy, create a destination for employee collaboration and mobilize talent to deliver bottom-line results. To create a work environment where employees are encouraged and given the resources to learn, share, be engaged in their work and perform at their very best.
This document discusses virtual organizations and related concepts. It begins by defining a virtual organization as a network of corporations enabled by information and communication technologies to be flexible and meet market dynamics. Key points include:
- Virtual organizations remove horizontal and vertical boundaries and are boundaryless.
- Technologies like computer telephony integration and mobile data allow individuals to work from dispersed locations while staying connected to their virtual organization.
- Both advantages like increased productivity and disadvantages like difficulty controlling employees remotely are discussed.
Companies are taking a holistic approach to improving employee experience. Forward-thinking organizations know that all facets of the workplace play a role in keeping employees empowered, productive, and happy—from their physical environment, to the technological tools available, to the culture of the organization.

Blockbuster declined as it refused to adapt to online DVD rental services like Netflix. And Yahoo missed opportunities to acquire Google and Facebook which contributed to its decline.
This document provides an overview of organizational transformation and reengineering. It defines reengineering as the fundamental rethinking and radical redesign of business processes to achieve dramatic improvements. Four key aspects are identified: dramatic improvements, radical changes starting from a clean slate, focusing on processes rather than individual tasks, and redesigning how work is done. Common challenges to reengineering include resistance to change from employees and managers.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

4 Must-Have
Components of a
Remote Onboarding
Program That Builds
Company Culture
2. SHARED EXPERIENCES CREATE POWERFUL BONDS.
That’s the essential truth behind the power of employee
onboarding, which has been shown to influence important human
resources metrics, such as employee engagement and retention.1
Despite the fact that effective onboarding can dramatically affect
whether or not new employees feel connected to their workplace,2
researchers from Gallup found that only 1 in 10 employees
strongly agree that their companies are great at onboarding.3
In a post-pandemic hiring landscape where many companies
are transitioning to permanently remote or hybrid workplaces,
onboarding has become an even more critical touch point for
establishing and inviting new employees to participate in the
company culture. Increasingly, it’s taking place remotely.4
“In a remote workplace, we can’t default to traditional sources of
company culture like the energy in the room or small talk over
coffee and cookies,” said Crystal Luukkonen, senior training and
organizational development manager at Ergotron. “Right at the
start, from setting up a new employee with the technology they
need to log in for their first day of work, we’ve had to reinvent our
onboarding process and challenge ourselves to find creative ways
to expose people to the culture of our organization.” Only 1 in 10 employees
strongly agree that their companies
are great at onboarding.

“When people think about onboarding, on a day-to-day
basis they’re thinking about HR, employee handbooks
or compliance or new-employee orientation. But
onboarding is so much more than that … it’s actually
more like a journey than an event.”
DANNY LEE
Global Leadership Coach and Senior Learning Consultant,
Gallup
3. With the location of work no longer standard, organizations must create systems and
processes that allow connection and culture to flourish between people anywhere — and the
best opportunity is during the onboarding experience. Here are four cornerstones of a
successful remote onboarding program:
FOUR CORNERSTONES OF REMOTE ONBOARDING THAT BUILDS CULTURE
Connection for strong relationships
Choice and personalization Measurable success
Company values, not company culture
3
4. One of the biggest mistakes companies can make when transitioning
to remote onboarding is to assume that the traditional approach will
translate perfectly into a digital format. While much of the educational
content, such as compliance information, may transition just fine, a lot of
the interactions that previously built company culture will be lost.
To make up for this gap, organizations must build a program that takes
intangible elements of company culture and makes them tangible in the
new format. That process comes not from trying to re-create the culture
in a remote format but by revisiting company values and identifying
ways to bring them to life online.
“We all know how an office works, even if it’s just from watching a
thousand sitcoms where employees connect at the watercooler,” said
Valentina Thörner, a remote leadership consultant and head of product
and director of remote at Klaus, a conversation-review and quality-
assurance platform for support teams. “But there’s no one-size-fits-all
playbook for remote work. Many companies tried to move that in-office
culture to a digital format and ended up on Zoom for eight hours a day.
People quickly burned out, wondering why it’s not the same as it was in
the office.”
SUCCESSFUL REMOTE ONBOARDING …
Is built around company
values, not company culture
4
5. Thörner explained that organizations can’t just copy in-person
connections to virtual settings and expect it to work seamlessly.
Remote onboarding that effectively builds company culture starts with
a renewed focus on company values, which can then be translated
into the remote culture. Organizations need to take that opportunity
to step back and think about what is actually required for employees
to be productive at work, then extrapolate that to the overall remote
work situation.
“You don’t need to defend your company culture when you are
remote,” Thörner said. “You need to defend your company values,
which are the foundation of culture.”
5
“The shift to fully remote work took a lot of companies by
surprise and many were not ready to move their
in-person processes online. The biggest change has been
in how companies are approaching onboarding; rather
than simply adjusting to the medium, many companies
have revamped these processes altogether.”
ALEKSANDRA SULIMKO
Human Resources Director, The Soul Publishing5
6. Connection is not a nice-to-have. It’s critical to nurturing belonging
and helping employees feel as if they’re part of something bigger than
themselves. Research from Harvard Business Review found that high
rates of belonging are linked to bottom-line benefits: a 56% increase in
job performance, a 50% drop in the risk of turnover and a 75% reduction
in sick days, loosely translated to an annual savings of $52 million for a
10,000-person company.6
Connection is a common theme throughout any onboarding
experience, but it’s especially important during remote onboarding
because there’s no baseline interaction to fall back on. When an
employee begins their first remote workday, they’re alone in their
workspace with a laptop. Connection and relationship must be
planned and facilitated or they may not happen.
Overcoming obstacles was the first step for Luukkonen.
For example, Luukkonen and her team would normally try to
keep new employees away from technology during their first two
days to encourage focus on the experience of this new milestone,
to network throughout the organization and to begin to establish
a solid sense of community. But that’s not practical for the first
day of a remote role. For these employees, they need a computer,
equipment, and security and login information so they can even
participate in their first day of work.
SUCCESSFUL REMOTE ONBOARDING …
Builds connection for strong relationships
6
7. LUUKKONEN AND HER TEAM BRAINSTORMED OTHER
WAYS TO BUILD COMMUNITY, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
Virtual building tours: Provide video and photo tours of the
building for employees who have not yet set foot inside the
physical workplace.
Warm handoff between recruiter and onboarding team:
The new-employee welcome process should include a clear
transition from recruiter to onboarding team, demonstrating a
culture of sharing and support.
Executive guest speakers on the first day: Connect new
hires with executive leaders, including director level and above
and the CEO, who can introduce and share their connections
to cultural values and show their interest in all employees, no
matter their role or level of seniority.
Cohorts to create community: Organize new hires into
cohorts to emphasize the shared experience of going through
onboarding at the same time.
Customer testimonials to show company culture in action:
Ask customers to share their experiences with the company so
employees can see how culture plays out in the end product.
“In years past, a new hire’s first week was just that: the first week at
work,” Luukkonen said. “We recently evolved our onboarding to support
a first week that makes a much bigger impression and sets the tone for
how work will take place. This also takes the pressure off of the new
hire’s immediate team to share general information about company
policies and culture because that information has already been shared
during the onboarding process. We were fortunate to already have the
wheels in motion for this type of experience when we were faced with
the need for remote onboarding.”
“To promote connection in a hybrid workforce, look for
ways to level the playing field between those who are
in the office and those who are not. For us, that took the
form of a digital-first approach to meetings. Even if some
people are in the office, everyone logs in separately to
attend meetings so that we’re all in the same situation.”
VALENTINA THÖRNE
Remote Leadership Consultant and
Head of Product and Director of Remote, Klaus

8. In the transition to remote onboarding, some companies try to
develop a one-size-fits-all structure that works for everyone.
However, this is rarely effective and undermines one of the biggest
advantages of remote work: Employees can set up their workday to
maximize their productivity.
Making remote onboarding employee-centric is an investment
in your employees. It shows you care and makes employees
feel empowered about their career with your organization. Small
touches, such as the ability to personalize your workspace and
furniture, can have a big effect on how welcome and connected an
employee feels to the company at large.
“For us, the ergonomics of work is very important and naturally
makes its way into our onboarding process. It’s important to find
ways to provide choice and personalization for new employees as
they begin to engage with your company culture,” Luukkonen said.
“We want to create spaces where employees can be their most
productive and effective selves.”
SUCCESSFUL REMOTE ONBOARDING …
Highlights choices and
personalization for new employees
“A vital part of the Ergotron brand — sitting less and
moving more — is something that new employees can
see and pick up on even in virtual settings. Standing
desks and monitor arms give our team the ability to work
in a way that’s most comfortable and productive for them.
We value well-being, flexibility and choice, and we want our
newest employees to understand that, too.”
CRYSTAL LUUKKONEN
Senior Training and Organizational Development Manager,
Ergotron

9. It helps to capture baseline metrics and measure progress over time
when navigating any change, and it’s especially important when shifting
from traditional onboarding to remote onboarding. The intersection of
remote onboarding, company culture, and employee engagement and
retention is uniquely complex.
Here are a few sources of culture-related metrics companies can
collect to get a clear picture of progress:
Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS)
Time to effectiveness as measured by hiring managers
Performance evaluations
New-hire interviews about onboarding
First- and second-year retention rates
The more data an organization can collect about its company’s health,
the better, and the more clearly the company can see positive changes.
For example, by keeping track of simple metrics, such as eNPS,
Luukkonen could identify a marked improvement in company culture
over the period of time her company adjusted to the pandemic and
shifted into remote operations.
It’s also worth getting creative with the metrics you use to define
success. Writing for Inc.com, Maria Haggerty, CEO of Dotcom
Distribution, said that companies might need to start paying more
attention to figures that might have previously been more peripheral.
“Instead of blindly measuring against pre-COVID-19 [key performance
indicators], where the monetary results of tactics may have previously
taken center stage, focus on the metrics that factor into steady growth
and recovery,”7
she wrote.
Creative metrics for company culture might include measures like
attendance at team-building events, employee referrals, internal
transfers or even customer feedback.
SUCCESSFUL REMOTE ONBOARDING …
Makes success measurable

10. The where, how and why might change, but onboarding will
continue to play a crucial role in maintaining organizational health,
building company culture, and engaging and retaining employees.
Organizations that rely on these four cornerstones will have an
advantage in creating a healthy, flexible and unique company culture,
no matter where employees work.
