As the world continues to move away from a traditional office environment and toward a hybrid model or deskless/on-demand formats, employers need to find new ways to train and optimize their workforce to foster long-term engagement, motivation, and retention.
In HRchat episode 458, we look at this shift and consider tech that can deliver better business results by helping non-desk workers stay informed, connected, and engaged at work.
My guests this time are Amir Nehemia, CEO & Co-Founder and Yuval Magid, Chief Operating Officer at Connecteam, an all-in-one app for deskless workers.
Questions Include:
- What are some of the most common misconceptions about the deskless workforce?
- What are some of the challenges facing leaders and HR when it comes to managing and, engaging with, non-desk workers? How does it differ to managing and connecting with desk-based workers?
- Let’s continue to focus on where HR fits in. What data do HR leaders specifically need access to in order to improve their decision-making – on what is and what isn’t working on the frontlines of their organization?
- How does Connecteam help to improve communication and decision-making with employee-centric datasets and indicators for performance at an organizational level?
- Traditionally, little of the $300 billion that is spent on business software each year has gone to deskless workers. How have they been left behind when it comes to modern work technology?
- Many deskless worker industries have some of the highest turnover rates. For example, supermarkets and quick-service restaurant workers have 100% turnover each year. How can technology like yours play a role in increasing retention, as well as getting new hires up the productivity curve?
- What are some of the benefits of deploying an app for deskless workers? Do you have any examples of the impact your customers have seen after deploying Connecteam?
- How can HR leaders leverage tech such as yours to enable deskless employees to perform at their best and achieve tangible results?
