Multiple Indian companies are likely to adopt flexible work-life design as a post-pandemic aftereffect. Business leaders are poised to handle the challenges of on-site and off-site work equity as it ties back into the critical question of performance measurement metrics. Between culture and Covid-19, there are multiple nuances to consider, such as mental health, presenteeism and visibility, implementation across all levels, speed of innovation, and efficiency. 

As the downloadable report notes, leadership teams in Indian companies face an uphill task of striking the right balance when it comes to work from home (WFH) policies for their respective workforce without compromising integrity, equity, and efficiency.  

Renovating work-life design

In current times, one of the biggest challenges for Indian companies is designing an operating framework for hybrid working that addresses performance management, is inclusive, drives innovation, and encourages brainstorming while at the same time possessing a supportive policy structure that is segmented and individualized. This will need constant review and a feedback mechanism to respond to the challenges of income generation, employee job satisfaction, and health safety measures.  

Industry experts believe that technology will be a great enabler for the next generation of work collaboration. Furthermore, it will be imperative for managers to maintain the emotional quotient in all contexts as they ensure equal workplace practices and implement necessary training programs to help leaders adopt a hybrid setup with their teams.
