Managing Performance in a Virtual World

Join the Bold Bite-Size Round Table - 25th February 2022 at 14:00 (UK time)

During this pandemic, 88% of organisations have encouraged or required employees to work from home (Gartner).

There are positives and negatives to this:

73% said they were more efficient when working from home (Statistica)

Almost half of the employees surveyed (47% and 43%) said they appreciated the lack of commute and a more flexible schedule.

On the other hand, since working from home 75% of employees said they feel more socially isolated, 57% are feeling greater anxiety and 53% said they feel more emotionally drained (Forbes)

According to Human Resources Online, 66% of leaders say it has been challenging for them to identify when staff might be struggling with mental wellbeing, burnout, and the pressures of work.

44% say they are having trouble assessing their teams’ performance based on outcomes instead of hours worked, however, this is exactly what we must do.

Remote work can be demanding. According to HBR, employees may experience a decline in job performance and engagement when working remotely, especially in the absence of preparation and training.

Some challenges include:

  • Lack of face-to-face supervision

  • Lack of access to information

  • Social isolation

  • Distractions at home

What can we do? How can we manage the performance of our remote workforce? How do we use performance management to mitigate some of these challenges?
