SHRM 2015 Talent Management Conference & Exposition
Workplace Application: Gain the knowledge to modify your policies, procedures and processes to increase work flexibility in your organization, while keeping your CEO happy.
PowerPoints/Handouts Available

A flexible work environment doesn't have to include telecommuting or job sharing. Learn how Architecture Technology Corporation (ATCorp), a company that “requires” their employees to be in the office Monday through Friday/ 40 hours a week is a work-flex leader. Named one of the 100 Best Companies to Work for in Minnesota, ATCorp will share its best practices for flexing the work environment, while still having everyone in the office Monday - Friday. You will:

  • Learn the methodology ATCorp used to turn into a leader in workplace flexibility (without any telecommuting!) 
  • Recognize what policies, procedures and processes you need to modify to either create a flexible work environment or increase work flexibility in your organization.
  • Leave with a plan to help you start the work-flex process and overcome objections from your CEO.
