Shloka Ambani recently spoke about the need for workplaces to adopt hybrid and remote work arrangements, especially for mothers. She believes that modern workplaces should focus on outcomes rather than tracking hours. This idea aligns with the views of Dr. Chandni Tugnait, a psychotherapist and director of Gateway of Healing. She believes that this shift is crucial for measuring success in today’s workplace.
Dr. Tugnait highlights that this approach encourages employees to work smarter and more efficiently, fostering a culture of high performance and accountability. It also promotes flexibility and autonomy, leading to a better work-life balance and enhanced self-management. By focusing on outcomes, workplaces can also encourage innovation and creativity as employees are empowered to think outside traditional time constraints. Ultimately, this model builds trust and accountability between employers and employees, reducing micromanagement and increasing job satisfaction.
However, Dr. Tugnait cautions that while this model is beneficial for many industries, it may not suit all roles and requires adjustments in communication, management, and technology infrastructure for seamless implementation.
