Transformation of Work Life After Pandemic
As we pass through a period that we have not encountered before, the question in mind is how will the business world be shaped when this period is completed? While some think that as soon as the epidemic is over, the old working order will be re-established, others argue that a new transformation will begin. After such a chaotic time, it seems important for companies to reflect on their future lifestyles and to decide on what will change from the old to the new, what will be transformed, and to develop predictions on what can be done in this regard, and to decide from whom to support these issues.
The first thing to do while moving towards the new is to reveal the company's purpose of existence clearly, to review the company values and to make all employees realize that they are part of the common purpose and common values. After that, necessary time should be allocated to form teams that will support the company's journey towards the future and to make current situation evaluations with the support of these teams. Then it is important to let these innovative teams imagine the new together. While thinking about the future, it will be supportive to determine what will be needed for the company to survive. The powerful questions in the "Continue, Change, Uninstall, Start Method" will help open up the thinking area:
What should be maintained in the process?
What needs to be changed in the process?
What is not working and needs to be retired?
What needs to be included in the process, what should be started?
These pandemic days are perhaps the right time for companies to take action to create the better, more beneficial, and more holistic in their journey of change and transformation.
