Book Remote Leadership in the Covid and Post Covid Digital Age

Download or read book Remote Leadership in the Covid and Post Covid Digital Age written by Anna-Maria Meyer and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-02-11 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,7, Otto Beisheim School of Management Vallendar, language: English, abstract: This thesis provides some best practices and other principles to help overcome the challenges and disruption of the Covid-19 pandemic. This thesis discusses these eleven best practices and other principles in the later chapters, and will help leaders realize possible challenges and how to overcome them. If teams fail to overcome them and adjust to the virtual environment, they will not be able to work effectively any more and could cause potential damage and losses to the organization by not completing their tasks and goals. These practical implications can help leaders and remote teams adjust to a virtual environment and are why this thesis is very relevant during the Covid-19 pandemic and also post-pandemic, as these are helpful guidelines for remote leaders. Essential principles for remote leadership are the following in no particular order: • Provision of technology • Frequent and well communication • Sequencing of tasks • Provision of emotional and social support. • Maintenance of productivity and engagement • Promotion of a work-life balance • Acquisition of mentoring quality • Reinforcement of trustworthiness • Encouragement of shared leadership • Establishment of norms • Digital leadership Covid-19 has disrupted many workplaces, changed the working environment, and shifted most workplaces to a remote work setting, meaning most people had to start working from home. As the Covid-19 pandemic was rapidly advancing, working from the office was no longer possible in most workplaces. Many companies implemented a 'new normal' in the form of virtual teams and remote work. With this disruption and change, many difficulties and issues arose. Virtual teams and, therefore, also remote leadership face different challenges than face-to-face leadership and teams do. These new challenges came quickly and somewhat unexpectedly, and now leaders and organizations have to face them. Coping with these challenges is crucial for the Covid-19 era and post-pandemic age, when workspaces will most likely stay remote to some extent. Therefore, this topic is significant in the present and will also remain important for the future.

Book excerpt: Technology has always been important to organizations and a crucial aspect of their continued development.

Further study on this type of management and practice is required to ensure businesses are prepared and knowledgeable. Business Models to Promote Technology, Culture, and Leadership in Post-COVID-19 Organizations delves into how virtual technology has evolved to create remote offices and remote teaming in areas such as health, education, engineering, and other business solutions. The book also explores culture in a business and how individuals may interface, communicate, and collaborate in past, current, and future business models.

Book Post Covid 19 Communication and Leadership

Download or read book Post Covid 19 Communication and Leadership written by Peter Basica and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-05 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some ideas and concepts for our forward-thinking approach to the Post-Covid-19 world are not decades old, they are centuries old. Time tested and proven methodologies are effective when repurposed, up-cycled, rethought to apply to problems that did not exist when they were created. An equation required to project the precise area the first Mercury capsule would land was a centuries-old formula developed by Leonhard Euler known as Euler's Method. Leonhard Euler was a prolific Swiss mathematician who lived 1707-1783. Katherine G. Johnson rethought Euler's formula and applied it to a problem that did not exist when it was created to create a cutting-edge solution for Astronaut John Glenn and N.A.S.A. As Kathrine worked toward her solution, she was focused on creative problem-solving. Kathrine proved new thinking and old methods can create more than new solutions. John Glenn orbited the Earth on February 20, 1962, 179 years after Euler's death. Her new thinking and old methods wrote history. If you master the tools provided and apply them with your new thinking you will prosper in the post-Covid-19 world. Along the way, I hope you write history.In 2019 the Earth was not visited by aliens in a flying saucer. The Earth was visited by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, SARS-CoV-2, Covid-19, and the Earth stood still, not for 30 minutes, but for months. Social Distancing, Shelter in Place, Containment, Mitigation, and Pandemic became part of our everyday conversations and we all watched in shock and horror as tens of thousands died.Think about this for a moment. The human cost is not the number of souls lost during the pandemic. Those losses are in the past. As we move forward, it is the emotional toll that poverty and economic hardship create over time, and that clock, that calendar is just now starting. It will last longer than the economic recovery. The damage to the hearts and souls of every living being is immeasurable. The trend toward working from home or working remotely accelerated to light speed and we all worked from home overnight. Leaders, not managers, real leaders have always been a scarce and unbelievably valuable asset in the world of business. You know a real leader when they walk into a room. They command your attention not by title but by their presence, their persona. How does one lead when a significant portion of the workforce becomes remote and they no longer experience the face-to-face presence of the organization's leaders?It is my MISSION with Post Covid-19 Communication & Leadership to provide you with the tools and skills to use the tools to successfully communicate, lead and prosper in the post-Covid-19 world and maybe, just maybe write, yourself into the history books.

Book Remote Work Revolution

Download or read book Remote Work Revolution written by Tsedal Neeley and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LONGLISTED FOR THE FINANCIAL TIMES & MCKINSEY BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR “I often talk about the importance of trust when it comes to work: the trust of your employees and building trust with your customers. This book provides a blueprint for how to build and maintain that trust and connection in a digital environment.” —Eric S. Yuan, founder and CEO of Zoom A Harvard Business School professor and leading expert in virtual and global work provides remote workers and leaders with the best practices necessary to perform at the highest levels in their organizations. The rapid and unprecedented changes brought on by Covid-19 have accelerated the transition to remote working, requiring the wholesale migration of nearly entire companies to virtual work in just weeks, leaving managers and employees scrambling to adjust. This massive transition has forced companies to rapidly advance their digital footprint, using cloud, storage, cybersecurity, and device tools to accommodate their new remote workforce. Experiencing the benefits of remote working—including nonexistent commute times, lower operational costs, and a larger pool of global job applicants—many companies, including Twitter and Google, plan to permanently incorporate remote days or give employees the option to work from home full-time. But virtual work has it challenges. Employees feel lost, isolated, out of sync, and out of sight. They want to know how to build trust, maintain connections without in-person interactions, and a proper work/life balance. Managers want to know how to lead virtually, how to keep their teams motivated, what digital tools they’ll need, and how to keep employees productive. Providing compelling, evidence-based answers to these and other pressing issues, Remote Work Revolution is essential for navigating the enduring challenges teams and managers face. Filled with specific actionable steps and interactive tools, this timely book will help team members deliver results previously out of reach. Following Neeley’s advice, employees will be able to break through routine norms to successfully use remote work to benefit themselves, their groups, and ultimately their organizations.
