 Motivational Barriers due  to communication in WFH.

                    Figure 1

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought a massive cultural shift among workers. Remote working or work from home culture has now taken a central place, and employees around the globe have been adjusting their seats to meet their organizational needs.

 Most of the global workforce is not used to it, they were unprepared for many problems caused by this sudden shift.

One of the leading work from home challenges they are facing is communication. Team collaboration and Motivation is affected as transparency is not physically visible. There is no team participation, face-to-face access , or brainstorming sessions . You can no longer walk over to a colleague's desk to chat, schedule a meeting in person, or call someone up for a project update.

All these communication blocks are taking a significant toll on employee engagement and morale. Understandably, a similar level of engagement is not easy now. And the workflow is bound to get affected due to communication barriers.
