Elisabeth understands from these customers that there\\u2019s no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to return-to-work plans. It\\u2019s important to consider:\\nNot only onboarding new employees but existing employees:\\xa0There\\u2019s been a significant amount of change in the last year and things look very different coming back. It\\u2019s important to consider the return as seamless as possible, giving both new and existing employees access to the information and resources they need to feel comfortable coming back.Concise communication:\\xa0Employees are relying on companies to be clear on where they stand with return-to-work policies. Communication needs to be as clear and intentional as possible in an environment that\\u2019s constantly changing, especially when people are distributed.Safe ways for creating connection in the workplace:\\xa0Consider bringing back-office happy hours and events to reconnect with coworkers, but also implementing digital ways to connect given we\\u2019re in a hybrid setting.'
