Helen Wright, 923 Jobs Founder was spent a day with Skipton Building Society last week, to deliver a programme of workshops focusing on all the brilliant benefits flexible working brings to both businesses and employees.
It was a really empowering day, that explored the wide-ranging benefits of working flexibly, across all areas of the business. Discussions covered topics including:
What are the barriers to implementing flexible working policies and strategies?
How can you lead a team remotely?
How can you manage a team where some employees work remotely?
Helen commented: “Skipton Building Society already have a fantastic ethos, and recognise that in today's society individuals sometime require more flexibility to manage their commitments in both their work and their personal lives. They see flexibility as an enabler - and so do we!”
Please get in touch if you would like to know more about our flexible working consultancy services.
