Lessons and challenges

We also saw the benefit of working from home as some individuals have benefitted from more time with their family and flexibility – especially during periods when home schooling is needed. We extended our working time flexibility to the maximum, encouraging parents who are home schooling to work alternate hours so they can focus on their kids’ needs during school hours.
As an example, one member of the croatia phone number team changed their normal schedule of 40 hours over 5 days to 32 hours over 7 days and covered the remainder with time-off-in-lieu credits previously accumulated. We would much rather have energised and engaged staff at the end of the pandemic than worry about every hour now.
This flexibility and adaptability extends to the partners who work with us to sell our software. Some of our partners were particularly affected by the constraints of the pandemic – whether that be the industry they were working in or the type of service they delivered. Therefore, we aimed to generate goodwill and adapted our business to work in a more collaborative way to support our partners where we could. We know that we need to get through this together and that this support will grow our relationships with our business partners in both the long and short term.
Of course, all change offers us the opportunity to learn and grow, and the experience of working from home is no different. As MD, I have benefited from working across teams and interacting with lots of my colleagues, but some of our team members haven’t had this opportunity because their role isn’t one where they attend lots of meetings or mix with different teams.
