Managing employees during a crisis
As a result of the Coronavirus, we are making unprecedented changes in our day to day lives and in our day to day ways of doing business, in order to help curb the impact of a pandemic.
This means that leaders must be prepared to assess and implement changes, sometimes on a daily basis, as we receive new information and new recommendations from our government and public health officials.
Whether you are still operating at your worksite or managing employees remotely, we have some recommendations for Smart Managers that apply to both scenarios, as well as some recommendations unique to each.
Back to work recommendations:
- Empathy first
- Avoid minimizing concerns
- Institute cleaning protocols
- AND MORE!
