April’s Robins Proud focused on three of the eight lines of effort: workplace environment, digital tools/training and community partnerships.
According to Little, 3,500 base employees continue to telework to date. However, at the onset of the pandemic, more than 10,000 people worked from home.
“The virus forced us to transform and adapt to new technologies. This required educating our workforce on new and existing capabilities that could be used during telework,” said Tekquell Watson, 78th Communications Directorate Special Missions division chief. “Our Knowledge Management office formulated an education campaign to maximize exposure of available digital technologies. Throughout the current digital transformation, we have been able to expand knowledge and educate use of technologies to include: SharePoint, Microsoft Teams/CVR and Robotic Process Automation.”
