Zoom etiquette

    Have your video on unless you are experiencing connection
    issues. Find a quiet space without interruptions / background
    noise.

    Mute your microphone when you are not speaking to help keep
    background noise to a minimum.

    Be mindful of background noise when your microphone is not
    muted, avoid activities that could create additional noise, such as
    shuffling papers.

Now is the time to build your culture

Approx. 1/3rd of newly remote or
hybrid employees report their
organisation’s culture has
changed since starting to work
remotely — and most of them
say it’s a change for the better.

Employees who report that
culture has improved since
starting to work remotely are 2.4
times more likely to report high
employee engagement

                         “…it is a mistake (often a costly one) to focus a design on
                     changes in the structure. Structure is simply one of the elements
                     to consider because organisations should be viewed as complex
                        and adaptive organisms rather than mechanistic and linear

Networking Discussion
Consider your organisation and its shift to hybrid work.
In your breakout rooms, use the STAR model to discuss;

1.   How aligned is your organisation currently?

2.   What alignments might be overlooked or
     misperceived?

3.   What new capabilities will you need to deliver
     effective hybrid working?

4.   As a HR leader; what will you do about it?

But what are we designing for?

  Take the time to
  establish agreed
  Design Criteria
The Importance of Setting Design Criteria

1. Clarify what the new organisation design must do well
2. Identify problems that must be solved or opportunities that should be capitalised on in the new
   design
3. Develop the benchmark profile to guide the design and use in evaluating the design alternatives
4. Take the emotion out of organisation design and provide evidence based data with which to
   assess options
5. Provide focus for design or redesign that improves performance
6. Lay the foundation for trade off decisions - they articulate priorities that guide the design through
   conflicting needs
7. Keep members focused on the same outcomes of designing
8. Enables differences to be surfaced and discussed
9. Are used to evaluate different design solutions

The Empowerment Equation

Empowerment = Direction x Autonomy x Support

                            (Peter Koestenbuam, Leadership; The inner side of greatness 1991)
From our clients; 10 themes emerge

1. The nature of jobs and tasks
2. Employee preferences
3. Equality, Inclusion and Fairness
4. Collaboration & Innovation
5. Health & Safety
6. Buildings (office, hubs, homes)
7. Technology – tools and access
8. People Policies
9. Leadership & Management
10. Costs; obligations & responsibilities – employer and employee
Being seen; the route to progression?

             Humans are hierarchical by nature, and the

   “
             office always conveyed status and
             hierarchy…the risk now is that, in a fully hybrid
             and flexible world, status ends up positively
             correlated with the number of days in the office

Networking Discussion

In breakout rooms, discuss:
• What might your workforce personas
  look like?
• How would their needs differ?
• How could you ensure fairness and
  equity in talent / performance
  management?
Practical Steps
• Focus on Coaching Skills for Managers
• Understand needs for concentrating, collaborating, learning and socialising
• Map and understand critical roles, tasks and processes across functions
• Curate social interactions;
   • Open Space Technology
   • Re-design your office space with your home in mind
   • Create ‘Set Pieces’
• Create the forums and cadence for managers to discuss and review hybrid working with their
  teams on a regular basis
    • Team Charters – How we will work together
    • Mentoring & reverse mentoring
    • High-touch and extended peer-to-peer onboarding
• Visible Support from the Top – How we will role model hybrid work in action?
