Develop solid teams while working remotely
From recognising people as more than their day jobs to the importance of transparency — this is how to be a better leader while working from home
Working face-to-face creates shared experiences and bonds that help teams function better, but how do you create those bonds in hybrid work environments where team members are working remotely? Becky McOwen-Banks, Executive Creative Director at VaynerMedia and course leader of D&AD’s Learning to Lead from a Distance mini-Masterclass explores what leadership means in a new working landscape, where more people than ever are working remotely. Here, sharing insight from a global study she conducted with the aim of hearing from creative leaders about the changes they experienced, McOwen-Banks outlines the steps you can take to become better leaders with less in-person time.
This is an exclusive excerpt from D&AD’s online Learning to Lead from a Distance course that you can do at your own pace. It aims to help us all become better leaders, equipped for the now.
