Your employees: your valuables & your safety<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"MB_POST<\/p>\n

Which group of a company\u2019s stakeholders is the most important?<\/p>\n

One would say, the customers.<\/p>\n

I would say, the employees first and then the customers.<\/p>\n

And the reason is simple: if the employees are happy then the customers are too.<\/p>\n

The last 20 years (even more if we search the world) there exists a department in most contemporary organizations named Employee Communication\/ Engagement, Employer Branding (one can find a variety of terminology). Its target is one: to engage and to motivate employees, so that they maximize their performance and deliver towards the business strategy most effectively.<\/p>\n

The conversation about how to engage employees entails a variety of practices, but let\u2019s focus here on one simple -but too important- aspect:<\/p>\n

Meeting their need for balance between personal and professional life.<\/em><\/p>\n

The \u201chow to\u201d nowadays is easier than ever!
\nGive them the option of a hybrid work model!<\/p>\n

It’s crystal clear that the solution towards hybrid work model is the CLOUD. The investment on the cloud (among other benefits):<\/p>\n

Establishes<\/strong> the grounds for remote working<\/strong><\/p>\n

Remote working solutions are now essential for Business Continuity \u2013 to start with. Businesses continue to operate safely from a distance. With complete digital equipment employees continue to communicate with customers securely, to manage orders, to use the company\u2019s digital systems & files, to maintain their productivity, using any device \u2013 laptop, pc, tablet, smartphone.<\/p>\n

Promotes <\/strong>collaboration<\/strong><\/p>\n

The teams can collaborate better and faster. Communication and file sharing are instant, there are no physical limitations or time gaps, distances are effectively neutralized, and productivity is enhanced as tasks -like data re-entry- become redundant. Something important to note is that cloud solutions simplify the generic operations, and teams complete day-to-day tasks faster and more easily, as they do not have to use multiple systems.<\/p>\n

Drives<\/strong> employee satisfaction<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hybrid work models allow employees to organize their work around their daily lives and not the other way around. They have the freedom to spend more time with their family, which seems to bring the balance they lacked between family and work. The feeling of freedom satisfies over 53% of employees who state that they want to keep on this pattern (Buffer).<\/p>\n

Dear entrepreneurs, of great interest might be the following benefits re the CLOUD:<\/p>\n

Increases <\/strong>productivity<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to a global survey by Global Analytics, those who work from home are 15% to 45% more productive vs the office. In fact, this was the main reason for permanently adopting hybrid work models after the end of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Decreases <\/strong>operating costs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many companies marked a significant reduction in their operating costs due to the implementation of a hybrid work model. Now, even companies with smaller infrastructure have the potential to be just as effective as the bigger ones.<\/p>\n

To sum up\u2026<\/p>\n

As far as employees are concerned, the flexibility of a hybrid work model:<\/p>\n
