The WorkingSm@rt method was created to meet the changing demands of a complex, modern business world, evolving with the challenges in business to provide the solutions that organizations need to be successful.

MORE TIME, LESS STRESS

WorkingSm@rt will give you back the most valuable of all resources: Time.

Time to spend on your next innovation, your staff, your customers, or simply time with your family and friends. When you feel in control of your day and it’s YOU making the decisions, you can focus on the activities you get most from and that bring you the most reward.

LEVERAGE TECHNOLOGY AND SOFTWARE YOU ALREADY USE

One of the many benefits of the WorkingSm@rt method is its ability to integrate with industry-standard business software and hardware configurations. Many organizations, large and small, have a complex mix of systems, process and procedures that requires training be customized to match their specific needs. WorkingSm@rt has this flexibility built in.

Remote leadership essentials: keeping them engaged collaborative & productive

In this hybrid working model, many employees who normally work from an office are now working some of the time from home. This presents challenges to stay connected, engaged and productive.

These challenges are magnified for people leading remote teams since they can no longer rely on many of their proven face-to-face leadership techniques.

Maximizing productivity in a remote working world

Our World is changing. Success in a remote working environment requires individuals to use a shared set of communication, collaboration and planning processes and tools that are far more refined and defined than in a non-virtual workspace.
