Are you suffering from Zoom fatigue? Is mixing it up with Google Meet, BlueJeans or Skype not helping? You're not alone. Insurance leaders across the country are struggling to find ways of keeping employees engaged from a distance, and employees are concerned about how they can stay productive while working from home. "In the current work-from-home environment, services like Zoom have emerged quickly as the de facto connectivity solution but video chat is not a panacea for collaboration, especially in the long-term," says Chris Jackson, vice president of customer success for POPin, a collaboration app. "Anyone who has participated in a 10-person video call in the past few weeks would likely agree." For Jackson, working from home is nothing new. "I've worked at home for nearly three years, so having my entire family at home with me has been great," he says. "We actually like each other, so we've made the most of it!" However, for those who are having issues with adapting to this new work environment, Jackson offers some points of consideration and wisdom. Check out his tips in the slideshow above. Related: |
