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.
Agenda Expectations of Hybrid Work How Organisation Design can help Break out 1 Coffee Break Designing for what? Break out 2 Q&A
How has the pandemic impacted work? Total Work After Hours Productivity 30% 18% 20%
What do employees want? 49% Hybrid 26% 25% Fully Fully in the remote office
…and that’s being conservative Over 95% of workers support some form of remote working https://www.rte.ie/news/business/2021/0517/1222236-work-from-home-survey
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 https://www.gartner.com/smarterwithgartner/no-hybrid-workforce-models-wont-dilute-your-culture/
The Talent Time-bomb % of workers considering leaving their employer this year Microsoft Work Trend Mercer; US Annual Voluntary Index Turnover rate Pre-Pandemic 30k people, 31 Countries 40% 15%
…and the clock is ticking Over 1/3rd of workers are willing to quit if they are forced to come back to full-time office work https://www.rte.ie/news/business/2021/0517/1222236-work-from-home-survey
Don’t underestimate the Informal Organisation 70 20 10
So watch out for old habits There is a disconnect between workers and business leaders on post-COVID “ priorities in the near term, with business leaders overlooking workers’ needs for security Adecco; Future of Work post-COVID report
A shift in strategy and mindset that needs designing
Hybrid Work The Role of Organisation Design
Words of Warning… Myth: Reality “No real relationship between structure and effectiveness was Org Design is the found………to improve effectiveness reorganising is probably not same thing as the first option to consider. Andersen & Jonnson, 2006 restructuring “…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 systems” Stanford, 2015
The role of Organisation Design BUSINESS ORGANISATION ORGANISATION STRATEGY DESIGN DEVELOPMENT What markets? What products? What organisational capabilities How do we change and improve What formula for success? do we need? the organisation? How do we best configure?
What do we mean we say ‘Alignment’
Aligning your Operating Model Purpose Why do we exist beyond shareholder value? How will we compete? Strategy What is our vision of the future? What differentiates us in our markets? Capabilities How will we win? How do we lead? How is power & authority distributed? What competencies do we need? People Structure How is accountability managed? How do we attract & develop talent? How are teams designed? How are decisions made? How do we assess performance? Metrics/ Processes How are teams coordinated? Rewards How are behaviours shaped by goals? What are the vehicles for collaboration? Behaviours Performance Culture (Adapted from Galbraith, 1974)
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?
Drinks break
Org Design; both a process and a practise DESIGN STRATEGY CRITERIA (Organisation Capabilities ASSESSMENT (Gap Analysis) DESIGN OPTIONS IMPLEMENTATION
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
Design Criteria 1: Design for Autonomy
Reality check Myth: Reality: We need to monitor Employees thrive and measure what with high employees are doing autonomy
Hierarchy is for compliance, not work Information Flow of
Where are decisions made in your org? Tall structures Apex enable a tight ‘chain of command’ with multiple layers Formal structures of management provide vertical over lateral communications Flat structures reduce layers of Middle-line management but increase ‘span of control’ challenges Operations Informal structures encourage lateral as well as vertical communications
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 Thomas Chamorro-Premuzic, Professor Business Psychology, Columbia University
Use Employee Personas to map needs Anchored operator; 0 to 20% remote work. Need to be physically present to do their job. Creative collaborator; 20-50% remote. Takes on new /novel work and develops initiatives. Focused contributor; 50 to 80% remote. Work requires individual focus, the majority of the time Pattern specialist; 80-100% remote. Work follows a consistent process and a defined pattern.
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?
Design Criteria 2: Design for Identity
Reality check Myth: Reality: We need in-person Culture is about contact to sustain our behavioural integrity, culture not locations
Use Purpose As a unifying principle ‘I have faith in my ‘I believe deeply in inclusive leader’. our shared purpose’. Desire for Desire for affirmation, meaning, Emotional Motivator empathy, support connection, joy Rational Motivator Desire to be Desire to rewarded, contribute, not punished develop, achieve ‘I’ll do what is in ‘I grow as I am part My best interests’. of something bigger’.
