Keeping a Competitive Edge
|
|
Leaders from coast to coast are asking to what extent staff should remain virtual and what that would mean for life on and off-campus. Many workplaces across the country are ahead of colleges as they consider remote-work futures, and administrators have realized that virtual work can be a powerful recruiting and retention tool, especially in fields that are non-student facing such as technology and cybersecurity.
The New Academic Workplace, explores the wide adoption of flexible-work policies at public and private colleges that had previously been arranged for individual employees, and why human-resources leaders see this moment as an opportunity to look past the easy choice — returning to business as usual — to figure out how to be a competitive workforce in the future.
