For people managers on the front lines, we talk a lot about purposeful presence. When you’re congregating your team, what is the reason? How do you make those decisions? - Adrienne Rowe
I’ve spent time helping leaders think about what flexibility means to different individuals. - Adrienne Rowe
Also, we don't have to find a solution that we're going to ink on paper until the end of time. Maybe try something for three weeks, and see what's worked and what we may want to change. Giving themselves the freedom to experiment and also to make a couple of mistakes. Hey, we're going to try this. If it doesn't work, we'll try something else. Having that permission is really important. - Adrienne Rowe
Have a reason to get together. Make it worth everyone's while.
Be cognizant of the team as a collection of individuals, each with different things happening in their lives outside work, at different times.
Don't be afraid to experiment, and it doesn't work, try something else.
Sage advice from someone who's been making workplaces better since long before the Pandemic, starting with her time at the Happiest Place on Earth.
Thanks again Adrienne
