Remote Leadership Course Overview
Leading remote employees is now a fact of life. Over 80% of teams and 90% of projects have at least one member not physically located with the rest of the group. A recent study from GlobalWorkplaceAnalytics.com showed that the number of employees who telecommute more than one day per week increased over 79% from 2005 to 2012—and that trend has only accelerated since then, particularly with the rise of hybrid and fully remote work models.
While the principles of effective leadership and team management haven’t changed, maintaining peak performance and keeping employees engaged when separated by miles, time zones, and culture is a tall task for any manager or organization. Simply applying traditional office management techniques to remote teams doesn’t work. This comprehensive Remote Leadership training toolkit gives your managers the specialized skills to effectively lead their employees who work remotely, covering everything from building virtual trust and managing remote teams through conducting virtual meetings, delivering web presentations, setting goals across distance, and providing remote coaching and feedback.
