BIMA x Forecast Hangout | How to Maximise Profit while Minimising Burnout

A 45-minute discussion and interactive Q&A with Forecast to find out how to maximise profit while minimising burnout.

The agency world not only navigated the stormy pandemic successfully enough to stay afloat, but many of you managed to streamline your processes and adapt your ways of working to become more successful than ever. The working landscape has changed more in the last two years than it ever has and now project-based businesses must maximise their profits whilst minimising employee burnout… but how can you do the latter when you're too inundated with client work to give your people enough attention?

The hangout covers:

  • Understanding and filling your skills gap,
  • Retaining your employees in a competitive market,
  • Have you snapped back to pre-pandemic ways of working? Do you even want to?

Main themes:

  • Influx of clients’ work
  • Burnout
  • Retention
  • Pre-pandemic vs. now
  • Maximising profit
