Team Leadership in the time of remote silence

In last few years there was a huge change in our industry—Remote Work. Lots of changes had to be rapidly implemented in organisations, but were they? Remote work, lockdowns, office restrictions and others. This was a huge hit to many of our workspaces. Where most of us had to be sent to work from home mode. Some of the organisations in parallel with the restrictions found opportunities to evolve, remote work allowed remote candidates. Office restrictions make wider doors for home office and many more. Some of them just let the work go its way without any rapid changes on the way of working. Hoping that we as the employees would manage ourselves.

In the result of that many leaders who were great in chats in the kitchen over a cup of tea faced a brand new world of remote relationships and conversations cultivation. Let's talk about the challenges and how can we try to manage the expectations from our teams? How to build teams and lead them in not remote first organisations, but keep connections sparkling.
