What changes are you experiencing in the workplace as a virtual learning leader during the pandemic? How are you currently engaging with virtual teams? As a company, we’ve had to quickly adapt to creatively engage with our L&D training consultants and internal teams. TrainingPros president Leigh Anne Lankford shares four ideas for virtual leadership to nurture and drive engagement with your remote training consultants and employees.
Virtual Team Get-Togethers
Spend time with your virtual L&D consultants and employees outside of work to engage beyond the office. Social interactions apart from work allow the opportunity to participate in a more relaxed and informal setting. This creates a sense of togetherness, especially in these difficult times.
Mental Health Workshops
The global pandemic has been a stressful and challenging time for everyone. Provide opportunities that will benefit the mental health of your remote teams.
Highlight Every Triumph
Whether big or small, celebrate all team achievements – both for virtual L&D consultants and employees. Use every success to motivate and inspire to drive a feeling of accomplishment.
Communicate Frequently
As a learning leader, up your communication game to stay connected with remote consultants and employees working from home. Frequent interaction can help them feel more engaged during the current pandemic.
