Not that long ago our Dall Team met in Brussels to discuss plans and objectives of our alliance. Everything has changed in a split secondand it goes without saying that we have entered a new reality.

Worldwide outbreak of coronavirus not only made loads of people stay at home, but put majority of countries’ economies in danger causing potential downturn or even recession.
Now, more than ever we are appreciative of being a part of Dall alliance. In ensuing circumstances we are there for each other to exchange experience, best practices, and solutions for our customers. Although the situation and our predicament is different in Italy, Denmark or Poland, we still are in the same boat and in the throes of that crisis we are here to share with you our guidelines of best practices. In the first part we will focus on everything that goes on internally in our companies and second part dedicated to our clients and their business.
Proper communication towards our employees is a must!
Our staff needs to know that we understand the uniqueness and complexity of the situation, we took necessary actions and we monitor the change.
Remote work
All of Dall agencies switched to working from home
- Bluerank created a “Remote Work Security” user guide
- We sent out reminders about GDPR policy in terms of working from home
- We set daily meetings up within the teams and departments
- Management task force defined and scheduled to meet on weekly basis to share the knowledge and react to the changing situation
- Every agency use their own management application like MS Teams, dotProject and others, which facilitate daily work and help to monitor all tasks
- RichClicks agency for instance, has established COFFEE Meeting a kind of general meeting aiming to reproduce the coffee machine chit chat for just a bit and don’t let the people feel alone
- Speaking of mental wellbeing, Bluerank agency HR employees with psychological education have gone ahead with helpline dedicated for everyone in quest of support and advice.
- To keep silver lining within our companies, employees are encouraged to share how they cope with living in sort of isolation.
Our UK partner - Sleeping Giant Media made actually the whole material about working remotely. Go check that out!
Time for development
Now maybe the perfect timing for all planned trainings and coaching sessions. On the Internet there is array of ongoing webinars dedicated to digital sector. In the long run, this will definitely pay off and translate into more experts on the board. Therefore, Dall agencies encouraged their employees to broaden their horizons and promote their growth.
Last but not least, we all need to arm ourselves with the patience and keep all our staff members in the loop. This has already been a blurred time for us all, let’s try to facilitate it for our employees as much as we can. Stay Tuned for our guidelines regarding business and clients approach!
