Abstract:
Most of us worked in offices in 2020 in an already digital world when the COVID pandemic forced many project teams to work from home. While many have adjusted to work from home with occasional visits to their office, many employers have been pushing workers to return to the office full time. Now, in December 2023, a survey by The Conference Board polled 638 CEOS. 93% reported they have accepted hybrid work and will push no more for all to return to offices. Great!

But now how do you lead people and build teams when some team-mates have not worked together or even met in person? How do you get a diverse group of people, often across multiple time zones, to work together as a cohesive team? Which soft skills and project management tools are needed to complete projects on time and within budget? Can you get productivity AND engagement?

We will explore the challenges of the new normal in this interactive hybrid session with discussion first to identify key issues, concerns and choices. Then you will experience a project simulation on line, with activities, resources and a budget AND diverse simulated people to lead. In a group you will get to make both project and people decisions – with instant feedback on results – to see which worked - which failed and WHY . This will provide the foundation for an energetic discussion about the choices we must all make today.
