Leading Teams in a Digital-First World
Built around the shift toward remote and hybrid work, this course examines how leadership and collaboration change when a team moves from the same room to the same screen. It covers the practical mechanics of virtual teamwork — planning and scheduling, running effective online meetings, choosing documentation and communication platforms, and building team spirit without ever meeting face to face.
Who It's For
Team leads and team members alike, in organizations of any size or structure, who want a practical toolbox for avoiding the common pitfalls of working across a screen rather than a table.
Key Takeaways
- How virtual collaboration differs from in-person teamwork
- Practical approaches to meeting facilitation and documentation
- Ways to build team spirit and adaptability in a remote setting
The course was produced with support from the EU's Erasmus+ Programme.
About this course
This course takes you through key areas of leading and participating in virtual teams, and most crucially, how to adapt your leadership style and methods when your work takes off in the digital space. There is a big difference between face-to-face interaction and online interaction when collaborating in teams. The world has taken our productivity onto digital platforms to a greater extent than ever seen before; Especially in the aftermath of the pandemic, but also with technologies advancing in general.
We look at key areas of virtual teamwork: from planning and scheduling to in-meeting facilitation, documentation & communication platforms, and how to building team spirit when you never see each other in real life. The aim is to give you a toolbox and to avoid the pitfalls of virtual teamwork for you and your team to enhance your efficiency, productivity, and overall experience of virtual work.
Maybe you work in a small team or a big organization? Perhaps roles are clearly defined in your team, or you rather use an entirely horizontal structure? No matter the team, knowing how to facilitate your team’s performance and adaptability to the digital era are skills that any leader or team member can use to their own and their team’s advantage. Welcome to The VALE! Let the digital journey begin…
