There have been practically two years that might be considered the origin of a new Industrial Revolution. 2020 and 2021 will definitely be remembered not only for the global pandemic but for the drastic changes in the way we get things done due to it.

It’s the Remote Staffing Revolution that we are talking about, and it’s pretty certain that it is here to stay.

With the surge of highly effective communication tools and process automation, this trend was something to be expected to happen eventually, but the global lockdown provoked by the pandemic, and the visible effects of the Great Resignation did nothing but accelerate this new phenomenon that has taken by surprise more than one company.

So we kind of always expected that at some point, the modern workplace would usher in remote working. In fact, many experts have discussed this for years, noting how technologies such as fast, ubiquitous WiFi and video conferencing could lead to a rise in work being done outside of brick and mortar facilities.

Although it was not until 2020, however, that remote working had its true fire test, with many companies scrambling to improvise amid a global pandemic.

And meanwhile, a great number of companies are bringing at least a portion of their staff back to physical facilities, some companies learned the advantages of having a remote staff being able to deliver the same workload meeting previously set deadlines.

From being able to reduce operational costs from their offices to increase productivity by focusing on specific goals, remote staffing turned out to be a significant breakthrough in the corporate environment.

How can your business start to capitalize on this opportunity?

First, you have to identify which areas do not require the presence of staff on your premises. Once you get there, have a project manager run the show by setting up goals and monitoring the progress of each task. Social media managers, community managers, personal assistants, graphic designers, and customer service reps are some of the roles that can be performed in a remote way with little to non-difficulty.
