Getting the right person, in the right job, at the right price, for the right money is the magic mix you are always hoping to achieve when it comes to employing staff, irrespective of how that employment looks.

Temporary, Freelance, Contract, Virtual: these styles of working are more and more common than ever before. This is what this People & Management episode is all about.

To discuss this topic, you’ll join the conversation with Leonie Prendeville who only employs virtual staff and has extensive experience with freelance, temporary, contract and virtual staffing. Listen and learn how it has worked for Leonie.

We cover:

1. What’s been Leonie’s experience of dealing with freelance and virtual staff.
2. What major important actions should a manager take to ensure the engagement, work, etc., runs smoothly and successfully.
3. What has been a big lesson (what’s gone wrong and what did Leonie learn from that).
4. How Leonie ensures she doesn’t waste the resource a.k.a the employees time and effort.
5. How Leonie exits the engagement so that it’s neat, friendly/professional.
