GETTING BACK TO WORK - POST COVID

Dylan Flavell • July 20, 2021

At our recent Talking Point breakfast, we explored two questions:


  1. Does getting back to workplaces matter and if so, why?
  2. If returning to the workplace does matter, how do we get that to happen?


Here's what our research tells us:



A NEW ROUTINE WITH RATIONALE


It is important to not just identify the behaviour we want to change but be clear about the underlying rationale, expectations, standards and rules around the behaviours we want to move towards.


THE REWARD MATTERS


People need to see value in returning to the office. If their new routine is not reinforced, breaking old habits and establishing new ones will be difficult. 


CHANGING HABITS TAKES TIME


Some habits take 3 -6 months to take root. For leaders, it's important to allow for a gradual transitionary period to give allowance to build new habits.
