Managing remote workers takes more effort. This programme is an opportunity to explore what makes it so different and gives you the tools and techniques to do it more effectively.
You will identify what you need to do differently to successfully manage and create an environment of trust, confidence and regularity of dialogue for remote workers. You will discover ways to engage your team through different forms of communication, to build trust, to motivate and to set clear expectations. You will leave with practical tools and techniques that will enable you to be more confident in your role as a manager of remote workers, and at the same time make their roles more productive, positive and rewarding.
