SUMMARY:Effective Leadership: Examining Return to Office Through an Inclusion Lens
DESCRIPTION:A two-part series on challenges of a hybrid work environment and examine approaches to consider as part of an inclusive return to office.\n\n\n\nJust when teams\, managers\, and leaders may be getting comfortable with how to work effectively while remoted\, they will have to adapt their approaches yet again. With organizations at varying stages of returning to the office\, a hybrid model where some team members are in office and other are remote presents new and different challenges. The result is a hybrid work environment that present unique challenges with respect to inclusion. \nThe June 2020 ACEC-BC member survey found that inclusion was a key theme and that planning for and addressing barriers will be necessary to developing and delivering successful return to office plans. \nIn this two-part webinar series on Effective Leadership: Examining Return to Office Through an Inclusion Lens\, guest speakers Marcie Cochrane and Sharon Batchelor will discuss the challenges of a hybrid work environment and examine approaches to consider as part of an inclusive return to office plan. \nClick here to register!
