Times, duration, and frequency of office hours can all be adjusted depending on the needs of employees.

At the beginning of office hours, I’ll share a zoom room link where folks can drop in and stay for as long or little as they choose. We’ll use Slack for chat during the zoom call, so folks can refer back to the links and resources we share.

By not recording office hours, I’ve found that people are much more comfortable asking questions, opening up, and sharing personal details.

Office hours are designed to reinforce topics taught during the workshops, Money Academy, and on the monthly fliers. We take the discussion in whatever direction it goes and go round-robin around the Zoom call, to ensure everyone has a chance to ask question(s).

Sometimes people join with no burning question, but just to hear other people’s questions. That’s totally okay! A lot of learning happens this way, in fact.

I share my screen, my own personal accounts, and fields questions in a supportive, encouraging manner. There’s no money-shaming, silly questions, or sense of embarrassment here!
