Virtual Training
Virtual Training Materials – These materials have been adapted from the corresponding classroom course materials that you will also find on our website. However, we have changed the structure and content so that it better suits delivery in a virtual environment such as a video conference call, which helps with training of remote workers. This means no major alteration to the content, but the structure and method of delivery will have altered.
Intended for:
These Leading Through Uncertainty virtual training course materials have been developed for managers at all levels who face the challenge of working through uncertain times. They are likely to be facing the difficulty of ensuring the wellbeing of their team, or concerned about how they can ensure they remain motivated. They’ll also need to focus on their own personal resilience and the difficulties they face and are looking for methods of remaining positive while providing development and additional support for team members.
The virtual training course will help to ensure your participants have the tools and techniques required to effectively manage their teams through the challenge of change and adaptation while providing their team with all the personal support they need.
Training course contents:
It seems that everything around us is changing and we’re facing challenges like never before in our lifetime. The global pandemic has affected how all of us work and what was the norm has changed dramatically and it seems likely that we will be facing changes of some sort or another for some time. A lot of us are now having to manage and work with teams remotely and have had to find new ways of keeping them motivated while worrying about their mental health and wellbeing. The leaders of today have a whole different range of things to consider and act on.
The purpose of this “Leading through Uncertainty” virtual training course is to provide your participants with all they need to navigate their way through the leadership challenges they face. They’ll consider their own needs, but more widely, the key needs of their team.
Why is running this virtual leading through uncertainty course a good idea?
Well, just imagine if your participants were better able to:
- Identify the challenges of leading in a VUCA world (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous)
- Accept and manage the emotional impact of change
- Develop personal resilience and be able to focus on working in ambiguous situations with vigour
- Understand the storytelling process and its importance in communicating effectively to their team
- Motivate, develop and support teams to success through uncertain times
- Develop trust, support and rapport with their team members
