-- How Will You Use This Story? --


(OPEN):
DURING THE CORONAVIRUS-OUTBREAK, MORE AND MORE EMPLOYEES ARE BEING REQUIRED TO WORK FROM HOME.  THIS IS THE NEW REALITY FOR MANY--WHO NOW MUST TRY TO STAY ON-TASK, OFTEN WHILE JUGGLING THEIR HOME- AND FAMILY-LIVES.  CHRISTINA JANZER IS THE HEAD OF USER-RESEARCH AT "SLACK"...

(JANZER):
"
WHEN WORKING REMOTELY, OVER-COMMUNICATION IS CRITICAL; EMPLOYEES NEED TO FEEL A SENSE OF CONNECTION TO WHAT THEY DO, WHEREVER THEY ARE.  USING CHANNEL-BASED MESSAGING-TOOLS--INSTEAD OF E-MAIL--CAN HELP KEEP EVERYONE IN THE LOOP, IN REAL TIME.  AD-HOC VIDEO-CONVERSATIONS CAN REPLICATE FACE-TO-FACE INTERACTION--AND BATTLE FEELINGS OF SELF-ISOLATION.  YOU CAN ALSO KEEP YOUR TEAM MOTIVATED AND ALIGNED ON PRIORITIES, WITH A MESSAGING-APP.  THINK ABOUT WAYS TO MOVE IN-PERSON ACTIVITIES INTO VIRTUAL CHANNELS--LIKE ASKING EVERYONE TO POST DAILY STATUS-UPDATES ON THEIR PROJECTS, OR MAKING ANNOUNCEMENTS AND CELEBRATING TEAM-WINS."

(CLOSE):
