Managing Remote Work
Course Overview
In today’s complex and changing environment, what successful leaders must do hasn’t changed. What’s changing is how they must do it. As Environmental Threats are growing fast, virtual & remote teams are witnessing a massive increase and managers are facing new challenges in building and sustaining high performance teams in such settings.
Nowadays successful companies demand their managers not only to attend to their managerial duties, but also to be occupied with one of the most important skills for the future, that is Managing Remote Work.
For example, with the current threat of coronavirus ‘COVID-19’, agile companies like Facebook, Google. etc. did not cancel projects and stop their work. Instead they looked to see what is in their collaboration toolbox to keep workers healthy and productive, and at the same time continue their business by successfully renewing focus on collaboration and remote management.
Therefore, Managers must put in extra efforts to learn the essential skills of remote management and learn to foster a positive team dynamic, while that teams feel connected to the company’s culture and the business in general, to drive better business outcomes.
