An NFP’s successful journey to 100% remote working
Blind Citizens Australia – with a workforce of over 20 staff – successfully transitioned to a 100% remote workforce over 5 years ago – an early leader in this trend, way before the pandemic. This case study will explore how they did it, including:
- How to ensure the wellbeing of all staff in a remote working environment
- How to ensure that all staff remain connected to their team, colleagues, and management
- The importance of using the right tools/technology to manage a remote workforce
- How to effectively lead and manage remote employees, including team building activities with a remote workforce
- How to make changes with empathy, and how your staff can still learn from experienced remote managers.
