With increasing speculations that the end of the pandemic is in sight, many employees will be beginning to return to a ‘more normal’ or hybrid work schedule. As getting back to a ‘normal life’’ is exciting, having a combination of in-office and at-home work days will introduce an immense struggle for employees who have become accustomed to working within the comfort of their own home.
According to a 2020 study in The Economist, workers’ productivity levels have decreased by close to 20%. How can this be improved?
Minimum Consulting’s The Flexible Leader is a 6 month program designed to help advise managers and develop their individual leadership skills to elevate a company’s productivity. This program can ultimately transform your work environment through 6 months of exploring your professional leadership style.
Here are two beneficial leadership tips that will provide insight into whether Minetum’s leadership program is a perfect fit for you:
- Encourage Breaks
Giving the brain a break will increase an employee’s productivity. Incorporate mental breaks into everybody’s workday to alleviate stress, steer clear of decision fatigue, and enable the brain with time to explore deeper connections and decisions. Everybody’s prefrontal cortex can be worn down through lack of “time off”, interfering with your brain’s ability to make new connections and effective resolutions. Charge your mental battery!
- Condone Transparent Communication
Create a personal relationship with your employees. Not only do they respect your professional decisions, but by allowing input from your workforce you can encourage participation and increase the company’s productivity. Transparent communication also opens the door to two-way understanding, not only with work issues but also in personal obstacles. With this door open, managers can create a connection with employees, offer support, and can better understand what the company needs to improve.
These tips are just the beginning to the beneficial insight offered at The Flexible Leadership program, which will increase your leadership’s effectiveness. If you are a professional who is looking to explore and improve upon leadership skills, you should look into Minetum’s Leadership program.
