One of the biggest concerns for human resource leaders as their organizations prepare to implement new work models is that employees who continue to work from home will feel “on the outside, looking in” compared to colleagues who will spend more time in the office.
The lack of physical proximity to bosses and peers, having to dial in to meetings that co-workers are attending in person or receiving less performance feedback can make remote workers feel disengaged or forgotten and lead to talented employees leaving the organization.
