How do we manage the second wave now? The answer is virtual & emphatic.
We are experiencing an "emotional lockdown" right now because we understand that winter is going to be hard and trying to live a daily life is in jeopardy.
In spring, everything felt like "the first time". In addition to numerous restrictions, there was also the "breathing through" effect - a brief exit from the hamster wheel.
Now we in management have an emotional "Herculean task" ahead of us.
Winter is coming, employees are more afraid of physical encounters - who may, can and will want to stay at home.
That's why, as a manager, you are now creating clarity with your team: How does joint management work virtually? How do you measure your success in virtual collaboration?
The rule is:
- Camera always on (the only way to see & show emotions).
- At least 7 ( virtual) face-to-face contacts with "direct reports" per month
- There are robust virtual management software solutions (MS Teams, Zoom...) and systems that disrupt virtual leadership
