I like the idea of the manager being encouraging and letting the employees know they are supportive. Far too often at work, I see employees working from home and they are kind of forgotten about. I completely agree with “be there, but don’t micromanage.” This podcast was 100% correct. As I mentioned above, I see employees forgotten about, meaning they are kept out of the loop.

Managers must be encouraging, set goals for employees, and seek feedback from employees. This is also very important because it can make an employee feel very respected and cared about by the company as well as keep employees on track with work. One of the final things that I was able to take away from the pod cast was that a manager should be positive. I think this also goes a long way in the classroom, when the instructor is happy it makes the students happy.

One thing that was mentioned in the pod cast that I have come to realize myself is that face to face brainstorming and learning is always better than doing it through a computer. This is important because of our situation in the country, so this fact helps us understand that working form home will be difficult for a while. Another important thing that was discussed was how managers interact with employees while people are working from home.

I have never had the true experience to be able to work from home but working as a assistant secretary in a pool company, my colleague who is the secretary works remote. While she’s working remote I can see how difficult it can be sometimes as it even affects me having to send out and receive things that would normally be done in the office on her part. My dad works as the plant manager and he’s always in contact with her to see how she’s doing. I’d say that with work ethic it can be done.

In order to feel my most productive, I would shower and dress as if I was going to work! I would have to set myself hourly goals based around email numbers to ensure I was productive! This podcast has great advice for both employee and manager.

Working from home can be challenging. I experienced this during the pandemic. A customer service job containing answering phones and emails would seem easy, however, I did struggle some! I felt as my management had no understanding of me having a one-year-old child that I did not feel comfortable sending to daycare.

To relay messages but removes the human element of communication. Verbal communication is great because it allows an open platform to discuss ideas with coworkers. Managers can provide motivation to their employees at home by being encouraging. Setting and monitoring goals is pivotal for management to keeping your employees on task. Employee evaluation is also important as it allows the employer to review the efficiency of their employee working from home.

Working at home is new, it’s presents a new sets of tasks and challenges and is a big change in our daily routine. Dr. Ricardo explains that change is difficult for many of us. This is especially true with me, but we cannot grow in comfort zones. Change maybe be difficult, but welcome. This segment talks about what workers and management can do to improve their work from home. The communication methods from working from home are: Call, text, email, and zoom. Technologies make it more convenient

This is great. Working from home can get difficult at times but you laid out some great points to help managers motivate their employees, communicate with their employees, and even encourage their employees. There are some very relevant points for everyone, not just management. I really enjoyed listening.
