Overview of the webinar
Must distance workers be isolated workers? According to recent organizational productivity surveys, the dramatic expansion of teleworking is causing isolation for distance employees. Whether being distracted on the Internet, not able to set up a daily work structure and routine, no “water cooler conversation” for a break or collegial inspiration, not to mention demands of family life for some of these teleworkers. This can be a formula for disruptive stress, energy drain, lack of productivity, even short-term depression or long-term burnout. All threats to firm morale and bottom-line.
In today’s COVID times and aftermath, teleworking is not going away. Coaching/support groups are needed more than ever. Experts must adapt social media technology with quick engagement, empathic and "keeping it real” resilience coaching and mind/morale boosting communication. And the ability to strengthen a sense of team that also recognizes the individual is critical. When facilitators have "The Right Stuff," Zoom meetings don't have to turn participants into Zoombies!
In a skillfully orchestrated, appropriately open and intimate setting, participants will gain personal and work strategies for:
- Realizing you are not alone
- Productively starting and organizing you work day
- Overcoming procrastination
- Asking for help
- Learning to take rejuvenating breaks
- Create-brainstorm partners
