Work/ Life & Business Strategy Collisions! Lack of metrics, no re-assessment of impact on business drivers (ie productivity, retention, customer satisfaction etc) Inadequate support by CEO, Senior Mgt, supervisors (inflexible and job centred baby boomers) Workplace tensions (perceptions of flexibility inequity) not managed “Me” centric dominate the workplace with flexibility seen as a ‘right’.

Top 10 tips to Compliment Business Strategy At System & Policy Level: 1.W/L program part of integrated workforce planning strategy of the business (organisational ownership) 2.Performance regime measures outcomes not inputs 3.Program goals link to business imperatives & objectives 4.W/L initiatives must be relevant to workforce (demographics, lifecycle) 5.Develop strong metrics base ( benchmark pre, post implementation, and on-going reviews)

Top 10 Tips (continued) 6.Policies/ systems (eg HR,IT) support objectives whilst balance risks (WFH Policy) At Workplace Culture Level 7.Managers supported by specific training in “managing flexibly” 8.Market benefits in tandem with obligations (win-win) 9.Culture of Partnership (reference group to bounce ideas and two-way communications with workforce) 10.Report on outcomes, critically review, celebrate business success.

Contemporary Dialogue on Flexibility Moving from the ‘nice to do’ to ‘mission critical’ How will you source and retain a long term supply of talent when the pool is shrinking? Its ‘Game on’: Do you have a plan?
