The current work environment has changed post-covid. Attitudes and priorities have changed for many individuals and how and where people work may vary. Leading and getting the most out of your team requires new skills. This class is designed for both supervisors and managers who find themselves managing multiple work scenarios, whether it be a mix of in-person and/or persons working remotely.

This session explores the nature of teams. Participants will learn the specific challenges of managing this new mindset and address hybrid or remote workers in the current environment as well as specific tips and tools to better enhance group cohesion and gain insights on how to maintain organizational culture.

Upon completion of the class, participants will be able to:

  • Apply a model of team development to today’s working environment
  • Identify specific challenges of managing in a virtual world
  • Recognize ways to leverage the upsides of working remotely
  • Address post-Covid-specific challenges to employee morale and emotional wellbeing
  • Find methods to maintain group cohesion while getting the job done
  • Create an action plan to apply in their own workplace situations
