How to evolve a healthy corporate culture in a remote working world
EY
Given the importance of corporate culture and our move to a more remote workforce, business leaders must pause to assess the current state of their culture and deliberately evolve it to allow them to achieve their business, people and customer objectives.
This article suggests six critical practices to evolve a healthy working culture:
- Take the tone at the top seriously as messaging really matters
- Make managers the central point in sustaining, evolving and operationalising values through behaviours
- Know your influencer network and drive change through them
- Trust your people to set their own boundaries for remote work and don’t overload them
- Be acutely aware of and quick to act on ethical issues and behavioural risks
- Focus on inclusion in everyday behaviours, not just pragmatically
