With more and more of the global workforce making a switch to remote working, there are numerous considerations to be made about working environments. It is crucial to consider the available professional development options to keep valued employees inspired and productive in their new working conditions.
With the freedom to work from home, remote working is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after benefits in a professional role. The last few months have seen many workers across the world adjust to home offices, highlighting benefits like greater flexibility and work-life balance. If organisations hadn’t considered flexible working in the past, it is likely they will start to seriously consider it as part of their policies moving forward.
While working from home gives employees a sense of freedom and autonomy which often means they feel more trusted and valued[1], one of the most common sources of employee frustration is lacking adequate training or resources to get the job done. If employees are consistently in situations in which they feel uncomfortable or incompetent, the consequence may be a severe knock in confidence which leaves them feeling unmotivated.
Training employees while they work from home is a key way to help workers progress and expand their knowledge. The flexibility this gives learners is one of the main advantages of training online. For those with children and family responsibilities, for example, this allows the learner to take ownership of their progression and schedule training when it is convenient for them.
