As a leader, you have faced changes and challenges brought on by the pandemic crisis and more than a year of working remotely. With a return to campus, you and your team are suddenly working together again, on-site and face-to-face. You might be leading a team where everyone is back on campus or you might be leading a hybrid team, where some people are on campus and others continue to work remotely. This change impacts your leadership approach, team dynamics, and productivity. Now more than ever, you will need to be decisive, flexible, a skilled communicator, and think outside the box. You also need to make sure your team continues to feel connected, engaged, and productive.
As you are getting ready to return to campus, preparing your team for the transition back to the office, and once you are on campus, use this resource for much-needed information exactly when you need it. This guide is organized into 7 categories focusing on change, communication, resilience, trust, leading and supporting remote teams, and recognition.
