How’s your #WFH experience going? Share any tips

How’s your #WFH experience going? Share any tips with us! BIG ‘thank you’ to Dimensional Fund Advisors for facilitating last week’s webinar, as well as to these amazing ladies for the first of our official ‘What’s Important Now’ or #WIN educational series!
We discussed #bestpractices for work at home, as well as ways to enhance the communication process between managers and their respective teams via tech tools such as #microsoftteams and #zoom. We also discussed ways to keep teams #motivated via consistent check-ins, how to achieve personal and business balance by setting space and time boundaries, as well as lessons learned from this unique experience.
Lastly, we pivoted to #networking and interview opportunities via video, which (we believe) everyone should take advantage of during this period! We also found that business continues to get done via apps like #docusign.
While the lasting impact of this unprecedented situation is yet to be determined, we encourage everyone to stay connected and let us know how we can help!

As always, we thank you for being there.

WIP has been a long time supporter of Deborah's Place, and they need our help now more than ever. Deborah's Place has provided housing and supportive services to homeless women in Chicago since 1985. Due to the COVID-19 crisis, the annual gala was forced to move to a virtual format. Please consider donating any amount large or small to help us reach our goal!

A great book is one of my favorite gifts for the holidays. If you need inspiration for the readers on your list (or to treat yourself!), @wellreadblackgirl has a stack of wonderful recommendations–as well as a mission to nurture, celebrate, and amplify the voices of Black women writers and readers–and a great story for everyone this season.
