Considering Remote: You are ahead, just don’t know it
Changes. Turn and face the strange ones. If you are considering —even unwillingly— changing to a remote staffing model for your business, rest assured in knowing that this is not a last resort survival scenario. It is a tried, proven, and in recent years, perfected alternative. Perhaps not without its own set of challenges but not unlike the in-office counterpart.
Remote work is now the only way to stay afloat for many companies, but if embraced with an appropriate mindset and guidance, you and your business will soon sail confidently on the high seas. Change is the only certainty —that's the way it's always been.
But know this: you are not alone and don't have to start from ground zero. A great thinker said in regards to relying on knowledge acquired by predecessors: "If I have been able to see farther than others, it was because I stood on the shoulders of giants."
Knowledge is still Power
When facing a new challenge adapting is essential, and knowledge is key. There might be a learning curve in navigating remote management, but the time dedicated to it is a profitable investment. Every minute you learn how to zoom, team, slack, monday or google meet, you are not falling behind in any way but getting an edge on reluctant competitors.
The territory is charted
Most tools and software designed to facilitate remote work are intuitive and have integrated guides. If you don't find those features helpful, it is no issue. There are countless online resources, and with brief research, you and your employees may realize you don't need to develop any company-specific tutorials. The guide you need may exist already.
The trail is blazed
Some people make a living by teaching every conceivable trade, task, or endeavor. Do you have an idea of how many content channels can exist, profit, and publish limitless videos about how to sharpen knives? Some of these content creators are so passionate, knowledgeable, and gifted to teach that it is remarkable. At the very least, you can get some ideas and adapt to your own company's remote work solution needs. If time is of the essence and you want this to be taken care of swiftly. We are here to help.
Remote: Maybe not just “the only way”
but the actual best one. In many cases, there is no way around remote working. In some others, even if feasible, the alternative is not the safest by any means. And the prospects of a massive and swift return to in-office modality are not expected to improve anytime soon.
Succeed in improving, improve to succeed
What can improve is the way you manage your business. Remote staffing may be exactly what you need.
