Core Webinar: Leading From Afar: Creating a Cohesive Remote Team

CHICAGO—Remote work and leadership are vastly different from the traditional office experience. It takes a balance of technology, management and empathy. On Wednesday, June 2, Core: Leadership, Infrastructure, Futures will present "Leading From Afar: Creating a Cohesive Remote Team", a webinar that will share best practices for remote leadership that encourage collaboration and camaraderie. In this session the presenter, Meghan Kowalski, will identify, examine and discuss techniques and processes for integrating various skills and activities into your leadership to help create strong and productive remote teams. This presentation will discuss the importance of adopting leadership skills that adapt to the needs of an organization’s individual employees including but not limited to working parents, differing levels of socioeconomic status, accessibility concerns and home life. In addition, Kowalski will share how many aspects of remote leadership can be adapted to in-person and hybrid leadership.

Upon completion of this informative webinar, attendees will be able to identify how their remote work, management, and leadership differ from traditional office work; determine which skills are necessary for effective and productive remote leadership; identify and select various team cohesion techniques to apply at their organization; and assess and evaluate their organization’s productivity and team cohesiveness.
