✨Less meetings
✨Actual feedback i.e tell me what's wrong and how I can improve. Don't give me general crap like "communication problems"
✨ Room for innovation
✨ Room for disagreement. Cannot believe how many orga work against their interests cus they don't want to address the elephant in the room
Heavy on the less meetings
Simple - remote employment
A few things that would help me
1) match the person’s name in outlook/teams to what they want to be called.
2) outlook and teams have a spot for how to pronounce your name. (And a spot on your internal practices on how to read pronunciation)
3) big meetings should have the presenter’s name on the slide. Yes, have a deck that has the part of agenda you are on and who the main speakers are with what role they are in the company
4) remind folks that at least in ms operating systems, there is an auto captioning available. Nowadays, I think it is 85% correct in technical discussions, 90-95% in normal conversations. It helps when there are accents and/or mic issues.
5) sonic cloud software helps with fine-tuning your audio experience on team/zoom calls. This can help deaf/hard of hearing, folks listening to new accents, extra sound boost on the shop floor and for those who are nearing the need for hearing aids.
6) dragon software for those who would rather talk than type.
7) maps of your buildings and related signage in easily accessible locations online and in the building. If you are someone who is making building meeting appointments. Addresses of the building, the company name and the floor room number is key. Example: sherwin interiors, 1253 Maddox road Portugal,Maine. “Far west Center building” floor 10. Room 241-56.
8) wall colors that doesn’t remind you of hospital/prison beige.
9) counter tops for coffee/tea that can raise/lower for those who need it.
10) company prepped ideas, processes and community resources on accessible softwares and tools that are already available.
I've struggled with this, especially in a remote-first company. I've tried to be more curious and ask questions on how to meet people where they are, and try to promote more opportunities for people to share their experiences and feedback.
4 day work week
Google "iceland economy 4 day work week" 👏🏼 (you probably know but for anyone else who sees this)
Remote work.
Fortunately, my employer has space for everyone to work the way that works best for them, whether it be remotely, in a hybrid situation or at the office full time.
For me, that was the biggest game changer, because I was then able to create a workspace that works best for me…with my trusted office assistant to purr at my feet. 😻
