Why take this course?
Working from home can be difficult. Managing from home can be even trickier. Management requires tons of communication and collaboration with your team. So, what’s the best approach to managing when you’re all working remotely?
If you’re a virtual manager, everything must be done with more intention and purpose. You can’t just do what you normally do, except over Zoom. Managing from home requires re-examining your management practices and adapting your behaviors for a remote world. If you’re able to pivot the way you and your team work from home, the more productive, connected, and successful you’ll be.
I built this course for managers who are new to working remotely. Perhaps, like many (including myself!), you had to switch very quickly to working virtually, and didn’t have the time or resources to plan what that would look like. I had to learn a lot (and I’m still learning) as I adapted to this new way of working and I think my team and I are better for it. In this course, I’d like to share the strategies, tips, and tools that have worked for us, including resources we developed for all of our Udemy employees.
