Episode 68: Impact of Virtual Work Settings on Performance and Productivity
In this podcast, I am diving into the empirical evidence behind the impact of a virtual setting on employee performance and productivity.
Post-pandemic, many companies are struggling with whether and how to bring employees back into office settings. There are what turn out to be unfounded preconceptions and myths about how employees perform at home or virtually versus in the office.
In this podcast, we cover:
- What the most relevant evidence-based studies and surveys have found in terms of employee performance and productivity (i.e. what is happening)
- What are the causes underlying the improvement of employee performance and productivity in virtual/home settings (i.e. why it happened)
- Why the findings aren't surprising if you understand the "Thriving at Work" model
- I walk through that model and explain what experience and evidence show us are the factors that maximize employee performance and productivity, and whether and how they are apparent in virtual settings versus office settings
- What this means for you if you are an employer
- What this all means for you if you are an employee
You will walk away from this podcast understanding what impacts employee performance and productivity, and the factors that support it in a work setting. This is important for both employees and employers to understand!
