Press Release
Accelerated by the current circumstances, dotSource has expanded its range of digital services. The Jena digital agency wants to support companies on their path towards a new way of working and has recently started offering comprehensive remote business coaching with best practices for remote work, remote events and remote education. Furthermore, a free guide is available for companies with little or no experience in this field to help them get started quickly and easily in remote business.
Before working from home became an international necessity in spring 2020, the working world only changed slowly. In many companies, the concept of »New Work« has led to improvements in working conditions and has standardised agile approaches in projects, teamwork and personnel management to a large extent. When it comes to the workplace, however, the office remains the undisputed number one. With the emergence of the Corona pandemic and the restrictions it entails, many companies have become aware that physical presence is not necessarily a prerequisite for fruitful cooperation. Reacting to these changes ad hoc, rethinking processes and mapping them technically on a professional level was and is still difficult for some companies.
ONLINE ONLY IN RECORD TIME
As a digital agency, dotSource has already been working in an agile and digital way for several years and regularly shares project insights in webinars. This year, the company was even able to turn its annual offline conference »Handelskraft« into an online-only version within a few days. dotSource now wants to share its experience with retailers, manufacturers and publishers so that they can also successfully organise business processes, events and educational offers remotely in the future. Based on best practices, the coaching provides an overview of suitable tools, methods and rules, which the digital agency’s employees were able to try out in numerous webinars and training sessions with external participants as well as in internal meetings and creative sessions – learnings and valuable tips included. Moreover, dotSource has compiled all these experiences in a comprehensive guide that interested people can get for free upon request.
With the new remote work coaching offer, dotSource wants to support companies in achieving great things despite physical distance and examines both technical and conceptual aspects of New Work. Whether it is for the duration of an interim phase or for a well-founded, sustainable change: integrating remote business into the everyday working life of one’s own company pays off.
ONLINE IS THE NEW OFFLINE
In order for companies to quickly and efficiently overcome the challenges of collaboration from different locations and to integrate solutions into the everyday working life in the long term, dotSource offers a new comprehensive coaching programme on the topic of »remote work«. For this »new« type of teamwork to be successful, it is not only important to use tools effectively: the right mindset also plays a crucial role. »In many industries, it is not the physical presence of employees that determines whether they can work together effectively. Mental breathing room is considerably more important because it helps develop creative ideas for innovative projects. Letting employees decide for themselves which place boosts their productivity will be more normal in the future than it has been until recently. This is a good thing and should by no means fail because of the technical implementation. Therefore, we gladly assist you with all our expertise to help you take the step into remote business,« Christian Grötsch, founder and managing director at dotSource, remarks.
