Session: What Happens After Lockdown? Preparing For a Hybrid Working Model Post Covid-19
Covid-19 accelerated tenfold the Bank of England’s adoption of collaboration technologies, remote working practices and our focus on virtual team productivity. In the space of a few weeks, we transformed our ways of working and strengthened our technology to enable our workforce (5,500+ strong) to effectively operate even our most mission critical systems from home. As for so many organisations, this change has had a profound impact on the way the Bank interacts and collaborates today. In this session we will explore the key elements that made this a successful transition, and discuss the longer term implications for us as an institution, placing our people’s needs at the centre of a digital evolution.Key Takeaways
- Explore the main challenges for organisations in fully embracing a remote working culture; and how to tackle them
- Understand the benefits of hybrid working models and how to strike the right balance of in-person and digital collaboration
- Making the change stick: how to plan the next stage of digital transformation with your people at the centre.
