SYNOPSIS
Lisa will be discussing the successes and pitfalls of both founding her own entirely virtual organisation, and the wider challenges in successfully managing a remote and diverse workforce. She will take us through best practices for contracts for employees, contractors, freelancers and any other type of talent your organisation engages with. How to manage the termination of employees with extensive digital access and still finish up with your dignity and HR budget intact.
Additionally, what are the tools, processes, policies and best practices for managing remotely on a day to day basis?
