The world of work has changed.
For many, this change has been a long time coming. But as well as accepting hybrid and remote working patterns, we need to create and build cultures that embrace the different needs of colleagues, and that are designed to lift and Thrive
Hybrid, remote and work-from-anywhere teams are the future of work. They allow great flexibility, they reduce commute time, they allow work-life balance benefits and they help in retaining amazing colleagues
But not created, managed and led correctly, and remote and hybrid teams can soon become isolating, unengaged, distracting and dysfunctional.
In this programme you will learn about intricacies of hybrid teams and team dynamics, about harnessing the power of technology, and about fostering a culture of collaboration across physical and virtual boundaries.
Each module provides practical tools and actionable insights, enabling attendees to create successful and thriving remote and wfh teams

lifted colleagues
We were looking for a management training programme to provide to all line managers across the charity. We liked Claire's approach - engaging and not too formal - and appreciated her experience in charity fundraising and people development, and her flexibility.
The management training workshops and Claire's delivery were fantastic. Her own experiences and the examples she shared really helped people understand the importance of the subject areas. Doing the training as a colleague cohort has really helped us to lift management style and approach right across the charity
