The programming committee for the 79th Annual SAM International Business Conference is pleased to announce the acceptance of the presentation, Implications of Virtual Employment on Productivity by Marissa Ampe.
We are thrilled to announce the presentation of a groundbreaking academic paper at the upcoming SAM International Business Conference, a prestigious event that brings together thought leaders, academics, and professionals from the global business community. This year, one of the highlights of the conference will be a comprehensive exploration into the evolving landscape of virtual employment and its profound impact on the productivity of white-collar business employees.
The study presented offers a meticulous systematic literature review, delving into the multifaceted relationship between virtual work environments and employee productivity. As businesses worldwide have increasingly adopted virtual employment practices, understanding the nuances of how these changes affect employee output has never been more crucial. This research endeavors to illuminate the complex dynamics at play, offering a robust framework for analyzing the determinants of productivity in a virtual setting.
At the heart of this exploration are the critical factors that influence how employees perform outside of the traditional office environment. The research meticulously examines various aspects of virtual employment, including the work environment, corporate culture, communication practices, and the support provided by human resources, alongside management and supervision tactics. Furthermore, it considers the pivotal role of employee well-being and incentivization in shaping productivity outcomes.
The findings reveal a nuanced picture: while virtual work presents certain challenges to maintaining high levels of productivity, there are significant opportunities for organizations to mitigate these impacts through strategic support and intervention. The paper argues that by understanding the potential productivity pitfalls of virtual work, businesses can develop more effective strategies and support systems to bolster their employees’ performance and overall job satisfaction.
