As a leader or manager, you can’t please all of the people all of the time but with many workplaces now virtual the challenge is to make yourself available virtually to meet the needs and wants of your staff.

Understanding the different reasons why your staff need you is key in creating a system that will bring sustained interaction and provide the support needed.

Every individual will require different things from you and Julie discusses what these are helping any leader or manager to work with their team to create virtual availability that will meet the varying needs of everyone in the team.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• You need to have the time to complete your own tasks and activities, time for yourself to complete work to the deadlines set.
• Your time, your tasks also include leading and managing others.
• You need to know your staff team and how they operate.
• People need the time and availability of you as the manager for a range of reasons.
• Staff may want your help if they don’t know how to do something or if they need advice about something.
• They will want your help for different reasons and your advice because you are the authority, the expert.
• They want to interact because you are the leader they will want to talk to you as part of the values and self-esteem system.
• Some of your team will need and want your input more than others.
• Virtual working means it’s important to sustain interaction.
• Talk to your team and work out a system to give them what they want and need.
• Think about what you used to do face to face and how can this be replicated with virtual working.

ABOUT THE HOST

Julie Hogbin

I started my career within the accountancy profession, moving on into auditing, then Learning & Development where I have spent over 30 years.

 

In 2011 I threw everything up in the air and became a property investor via forex, trading and learning how to build websites & internet market whilst walking on fire 😊

 

I have worked with over 20,000 Leaders at every level of Management and Leadership for over 30+ years. In the latter years working with CEOs, SMTs, boards of trustees & Entrepreneurs.

 

I have worked with the public, the private and the entrepreneurial sectors of the market. The Leadership messages are the same across the sectors – the application may be different but all are Business’ where Conscious and Principled Leadership reaps rewards for all parties concerned.

 

I work with the human element of Business and my passion is enabling others to be the best they can be through providing them with the information they need to be more effective than they currently are. Unleashing potential and providing knowledge enabling the best decisions to be made for the Business, the Employee, the Leader (themselves) their families and the greater social economy.

 

I am a Coach, a Mentor (and I know the difference) Trainer, Author, property investor and public speaker

 

I love to travel, sunshine, smiley people, intelligent conversation, laughter, learning, networking, supporting others, property as a business, investigating ‘stuff’ problem solving, asking questions that make people think, creating aha moments, gardening and flowers and being outside.
