Increasing efficiency through virtual meetings, finding new ways to engage with clients and build trusted client relationships, and creating pathways to more flexible work schedules: the pandemic has forced many firms, including ours, to drastically change our ways of working, and encouraged us to implement its lessons as part of our transformation journey.
In a recent Monocle podcast, Group Head of Human Resources Stefan Seiler reflects on how hybrid and agile ways of working are the future. “We pushed for a hybrid working model early on,” says Stefan, with two-thirds of UBS roles being identified as roles that could be done in a hybrid way. He adds, “We are convinced there are massive benefits for employees and organizations.”
Stefan also talks about our journey to becoming a much more agile firm through the rollout of Agile@UBS, our one consistent agile working model, one that contributes to better client outcomes, lower risk, and a more fun work environment. “The fun comes from faster feedback, more client exposure and more exposure to other experts in the organization who all work together in our agile pods.”
