Managing the Mobile Workforce
Telework Exchange and Adobe hosted a complimentary webcast, “Managing the Mobile Workforce”, on Wednesday, August 8 from 2:00-3:00 p.m. ET. The program focused on successful strategies for enabling a mobile workforce, with particular focus on public sector considerations. Whether it’s one-to-one communication, e-learning training capabilities, or team meetings – agencies should understand how to use collaboration tools, like Adobe Connect, to support and manage employees and teams that are increasingly mobile and geographically dispersed.
Panelists shared proven mobile management methods and provided expert insights into recommended technologies that foster effective collaboration and communication between managers and workers – wherever they are located. Panelists further discussed the importance of collaboration tools, like Adobe Connect, that work across multiple platforms while supporting mobile initiatives, such as bring your own device (BYOD).
Attendees Learned:
- How the growing mobile movement will impact workplace cultures and what role collaboration plays in a mobile environment
- Best practices and effective communication techniques for remote workers and their managers
- Case examples of defining, delivering, and measuring expectations in a remote work environment
- Methods for training managers and employees on the scope of collaboration capabilities to ensure an understanding of when/how to use the proper tools
- How to enable mobile users to present, host, and participate in meetings from anywhere, anytime using collaboration tools like Adobe Connect
- How collaboration tools like Adobe Connect support the delivery of online training - synchronous and asynchronous courses
