WEBINAR: Remote Management Skills

In our ever-changing working environment, more people are working remotely from their team, be it from home or from a different office location. This is particularly relevant today as the whole way of working is being challenged. In the current situation it is even more important that we support effective performance with regular conversations which include a focus on both wellbeing and productivity. The situation needs to be managed proactively, as early signs of issues or problems, which are more obvious when working in the same office, become harder to observe in a virtual environment.

This 90-minute virtual workshop considers the implications of remote working and how we, as managers, can proactively manage the situation to more positive outcomes.

The style of the session will be interactive and practical with the focus on transferring the skills back into the workplace. It will also give you the opportunity to share the challenges that you face and learn through the approaches and techniques of others.

This session is limited to 25 members to allow for greater interaction during the webinar.
