GAE2320. How to Thrive in a Hybrid Work Environment

In today’s “new normal” environment, a remote or partially remote workforce is part of organizational reality. What works? What fails? This facilitated discussion covers the topic from both the human resources viewpoint and the employee's perspective.

The goal of this discussion is to empower staff to fit into the new hybrid workplace and build the skills and processes needed to be a part of a focused and productive hybrid team. Attendees will examine communication and conflict patterns that virtual teams fall into and discuss overcoming challenges that can damage high-performing teams.

 Finally, we will discuss strategies for building accountability into decisions so teams do what they say they will do, even from a distance.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify how staff can fit into the new hybrid workplace
• Identify the skills and processes needed to be a part of a focused and productive hybrid team
• Recognize challenges that can damage high-performing teams
