As team members continue to Work From Home (WFH) during COVID, there are many challenges and opportunities for Leaders to enhance team leader/member productivity. More than ever, team members need to feel comfortable sharing their personal situations, communicate their concerns, and provide recommendations to Leaders. Leaders must be mindful to actively approach team members to provide timely coaching and support.
How should leaders establish trust, respect, and transparency to support effective communications, information sharing, and follow-through on commitments?
How should leaders engage virtually in key decision-making processes with internal teams and external partners in ways that enhance trust and teamwork?
During this event, learn how to:
- Effectively engage team members while pivoting to new delivery channels, new products, new operating models with enough time to manage the impact of changes
- Coach, execute plans, and measure performance management and accountability
- Better manage your limited time to thoroughly engage with stakeholders and gain agreement on plans
- Enhance team collaboration by setting consistent standards that engage all team members
- Aim to build strong internal and external partnerships and team collaboration
- Recognize communication challenges and make adjustments for unique personal sacrifices
- Focus on inclusion and encourage all team members to lead
