Coffee, Content & Conversation: Work-Life/Life-Work: Creating Balance in the Work-From-Home Age. Moving work into homes can quickly blur the lines of personal and work life, letting workdays bleed into family time and family interrupt zoom calls. Losing face time in the office can also make it hard to build relationships with co-workers, recognize burnout and create relationships with clients. This session will feature creating balance in the new work from home world. Jay Kelley will lead a discussion on how to create community and develop company culture while remote, how to detect & prevent burnout in your employees when you’re not in the same building, how to support extroverts in WFH scenarios, how/why to reward employees during a pandemic, how to develop trust with clients and business partners when you can’t meet face to face and how to manage work with a working spouse and children in virtual school, all in the same house. Thursday, 9-10 a.m. This is a complimentary event, but registration is required. Information
