Hi Deborah -

Our institution and our department are having a lot of conversations around the topic of the future of remote work. CU Boulder is working on institutional guiding principles. My department - Office of Contracts and Grants (OCG) - had a hybrid workplace before the pandemic, and we're now discussing expanded hybrid. We just kicked of conversations with staff around remote work. We have an open-dialogue, high trust culture in OCG so involving staff is possible, and we think necessary to make remote work work for everyone, including more staff working 100% remote (depending on business needs and personal preference).

I've attached OCG's Planning for the Future Version of Remote work document. A colleague and are co-leading this effort for OCG. We hope to have plans sorted out by June/July.

One key for me is that I think remote work is going to expand for Research Administration . . . and we want to keep our amazing staff even as other opportunities from out of state come their way.

Happy to discuss more - it's a topic near and dear to my heart!

Subject: Remote work

Hi All - we're examining the future of remote work post-COVID given that the last year has shifted how we've had to conduct business and opened up opportunities that allow us to explore a more permanent option. We would be interested to know if other organizations  have, or are considering, allowing permanent remote working. There's obviously a lot of factors to consider so we're looking at information that will help inform the process. Please feel free to email me directly or reply to the group.

Thanks!

Deb
