Karen Loftus - Work From Where
Karen Loftus of KarenLou Creates shares that one of the primary reason employees like to work remotely is that many have picked up side hustles. Everyone talks about the benefits of cutting down the commute, flexibility, no one looking over your shoulder, and even flexibility in dress, but no one, particularly management, wants to acknowledge the second job. Karen tells us that a big reason why many professionals are taking up a second job is they don't find their primary job fulfilling. Karen is adamant is the last thing management should do is put out a formal policy outlawing second jobs. You need to figure out how to engage your employees which will mitigate the desire of staff to turn to other opportunities to feel fulfilled. Listen to the end for the details of Karen's gift for our listeners.
