鈥淚t鈥檚 clear the workplace is fundamentally changed for the foreseeable future because of COVID,鈥 said Eric Rubino, CEO of Energage. 鈥淲orkers will be remote long-term, or at least hybrid. If COVID taught us anything, it鈥檚 that asking questions and listening to employees is critical to navigating this new world of work. More than ever, you need to be more intentional about your culture.鈥
鈥淟eaders in today鈥檚 post-COVID workplace are facing a new reality,鈥 Rubino continued. 鈥淓mployees have more choices. You can work anywhere. There are no longer geographic boundaries. Leaders who embrace a people-first culture will benefit greatly.鈥
