Trends Driving the Virtual Workforce
(VW)
• Time spent in “non-working” mode– Office worker commute time for professionals in the U.S. is just over 25 minutes
– Getting ready at home
– “Settling in” at the office before work even begins
• Expenses– Transportation
– Insurance, maintenance, professional wardrobe, dry cleaning
• Office space/furnishings– Cost
– Maintenance
– “Exhaust space” – break rooms, meeting rooms, other peripheral equipment
• Expense - Compensation/Benefits for high impact jobs/geographies

generations• Legislation is slow to react to these changes• Physical space is becoming expensive in most areas• Facilities cost continue to increase – facilities expansion• Some jobs are requiring skills that are in impacted
disciplines • Healthcare• High Tech• Transportation• Emergency Services

What Does A VW Do To Acquiring
Talent
• Massive talent pool to explore for great culture and skill fit • Open the candidate pool to both wider geographic and flex schedule
arenas• Hire the most talented people, no matter where they’re located• Work with Procurement to bring the Contingent Workforce into HR
processes• Rework the job descriptions to align with remote worker behaviors along
with Job skills – great communication skills (even Managers!!)• Interview for behavioral traits – use video interviewing• Interview at different times/globally – check flexibility• Assess current workforce for skill fit and behaviors
Ascentis Corp. Copyright © 2016. All rights reserved.
What Does A VW Do To
Engagement• With the right technology, studies show improved
engagement where the worker selects the method of communication and interaction
• Group chat allows a sense of “belonging”• Increasing knowledge in the job and the organization provides
a better sense of personal development• Communication is increased and more “transparency”
becomes a by-product• Daily communication is replaced with on-demand
communication• Need to build on trust

Engagement of the VW
Ascentis Corp. Copyright © 2016. All rights reserved.
What Does A VW Do To Culture
• Company values measured on contribution and places emphasis of innovation as a result of being virtual
• Communication, by virtue of being more broadcast, becomes more frequent and at times more personalized
• Skills and contribution become “currency” in the organization, team work is more emphasized
• Networking takes on new dimensions as weaving a more cohesive culture• “Water cooler” conversations might have to happen in a chat room• Leadership makes the effort to further the culture through interactions
Ascentis Corp. Copyright © 2016. All rights reserved.
What Does A VW Do To
Productivity
• “If I can see you, you must be working” – No Longer Works• Recent survey – 91% think they get more work done remotely• Motivation over productivity• Productivity is fueled by motivation• Priorities of your employees need to align with the organization priorities• Strive to align their work to them• Deliverables, quality, and measurement become the basis of productivity• Communications on a frequent basis, as a necessity, allows for faster project
corrections and removal of obstacles• End of Email as we know it – highest complaint of workers – TOO MUCH

Emails impact – love/hate

What Does A VW Do To
Organizational Agility
• Ability to scale faster• Creates a more flexible workforce• Mergers/Acquisitions more successful because the
Management mindset is already set for remoteness• Change in the organization’s business diversity is more easily
accomplished with workforce already poised to interact on an enterprise basis

HR and Senior Thinking
• Global executives are moving to a
management structure that
• combines globally consistent policies
• local relevance on the other
• HR approach that is both super global and
super local
Ascentis Corp. Copyright © 2016. All rights reserved.
Management/HR Challenges
• Create a vision that incorporates objectives and benefits to the individual, the team, and the organization
• Implement results-based management program that allow managers to easily set and measure goals
• Understand the nature of the work that employees are engaged in
• Lead by example scheduling regular meetings using the optimal mode of communication to suit the task
Ascentis Corp. Copyright © 2016. All rights reserved.
Management Challenges
• Offer employees professional workplaces when they need it• Provide remote or home-based employees with access to
professional collaboration space that can be utilized on an as-needed basis
• Encourage corporate camaraderie by creating opportunities for your employees to socialize and form networks with other professionals – even outside the firewall - communities
• Empathize with employees and listen to their concerns regarding working remotely – Pulse surveys
Ascentis Corp. Copyright © 2016. All rights reserved.
What Does A VW Do To
Technology• Need for a networking/collaboration platform to connect and archive
content• Video/audio capabilities on demand
• GoTo meeting, WebEx, Zoom• Recorded capability for both missed meetings and content archiving
• Chat takes on a new role (IM), like Slack or Yammer• Project management software to coordinate and measure deliverables
enterprise wide becomes very important• Employee and Manager Self-service, coupled with mobile capability becomes
essential• Time tracking becomes a productivity and analysis tool, not just a payroll
add-on• Pulse Surveys – localized and enterprise can be key to “workforce mood”

Benefits of a VW
• Improved work-life balance, which corresponds strongly with increased job satisfaction
• Appeals to employees with young children and workers nearing retirement – broadens the workforce
• Team workers who work remotely seem to like less constant oversight, provides autonomy and responsibility
• Effective communication that caters to a remote employee’s preferred method
• Scales better for organizational flexibility• Prepares for the “Gig Economy”• Cost effective
