Now that most people are working from home...what happens next? Our team shares lessons learned and best practices. 

Quick outline of our conversation:
Three suggestions to make your time working from home or away from the office less stressful and more productive.
1) Have a schedule
-use the whole...not just traditional working hours
-consider starting your day with a short meeting...either by phone or text
-factor in things like kids, husband/wife, roommates, workspace layout
-know what's due each day
2) Do something for you during this time
-Workout
-Professional development
-Network...can't do coffee or a beer...but you can Facetime or do short calls to stay connected
3) Communicate
-Give or get guidance daily...stay connected to your team
-Checkin on your people...well being and state of mind...don't work in total isolation 
-Let people know what you accomplished daily

Be sure to reach out if you have question or comments...stay safe...and stay sane

Season 2 Ep 16: A Week Down...How we Doing?

Welcome to 3C’s in a Pod...a look at the good, the bad and the “what could be better”... with control, comm points and cosmetics in the world of communication. Navigating you through this weekly journey will be the Provision team of John Schofield, Chris Servello and Bashon Mann.
 
Our team has media trained and prepared hundreds of Department of Defense uniformed and civilian senior leaders over the last two decades using the “3Cs”—controls, comm points and cosmetics as the guideposts to success. During our weekly podcast we will use the same rubric to look at the week’s highs and lows in communication, talk shop about the latest PR trends and then gaze on the horizon as to what you can expect in the week ahead. (And yes we are a nautical bunch.)
 
Using our seven decades of strategic communication experience, we will raise issues, review lessons learned and identify future trends...all while bringing you weekly guests, analysis and hopefully, some fun along the way.
