As COVID-19 continues to batter the world, so the way things are done continues to change. Nowhere is this more apparent than in running businesses.
For a New York City area remote workforce IT consultant, there are productivity tips that can be applied with the changes, e.g. when dealing with a partially remote workforce. These tips focus on remote-first IT solutions.
“As businesses reopen, many will implement a hybrid workplace model, with a mixture of in-office and remote employees,” stated Jennifer Mazzanti, CEO, eMazzanti Technologies. And so below are a few excerpts from the article, “4 Productivity Tips for a Partially Remote Workforce.”
1. Focus on Remote-first IT Solutions
“Companies that take a remote-first approach implement solutions that provide a great experience for both in-house and remote workers. For instance, using video conferencing for every meeting helps to ensure engagement from all participants.”
2. Uncover the Benefits of a Virtual Desktop
“In a virtual desktop environment, the operating system, applications, and data live on a central server, either on premises or in the cloud. Administrators create preconfigured images of the applications and operating system, tailored to each end user.”
3. Remember Endpoint Security Basics
“While virtual desktops centralize many important security functions, endpoint security remains an important factor with remote work. Any device that connects to the network presents a possible access point for hackers.”
4. Trusted IT Partner
Seek help from IT people to navigate the challenges and opportunities of a hybrid workforce – e.g. from comprehensive cyber security to cloud computing and network management. If possible, tailor systems to specific business needs.
