When the Covid-19 pandemic changed the way we live and work, no one was prepared for the extent of these changes or how long they would need to stay in effect. Leaders are trained to handle upheaval, but this health crisis presented a long-term challenge that disrupted our global economy at its core.

Here we are, nearly two years later, still reacting to the reverberations of that disruption. The role of leaders has changed, and it’s likely that things aren’t going back to the way they were. Remote work and hybrid arrangements are the next normal. Leaders have to perform their roles differently by leaning further into trust, beyond resistance and discomfort, and learn how to effectively manage from afar. 

Listen as Debra discusses the challenges that Covid-19 has presented both inside and outside of the workplace. We’ll break down the new understanding we’ve gained about the evolving role of leaders and share a few interesting statistics from employee and leadership perspectives when it comes to working remotely. 

In This Episode, You Will Learn:

• Survey statistics regarding remote work among employees during the Covid-19 pandemic (2:00)
• 4 workplace models we can expect to see in the future (4:57)
• Benefits of adopting a more global static hybrid model of remote work (8:49)
• The challenges for remote leaders in a hybrid team scenario (10:59)
• How the increasing demand for flexibility will affect the workplace of the future (15:48)
• The biggest challenges organizations faced when Covid-19 hit (17:29)
• Pleasant surprises that have come from the remote work model (19:53)

Resources Mentioned in this episode:

• Book: Remote Leadership: Successfully Leading Work-From-Anywhere and Hybrid Teams by Debra A. Dinnocenzo and Jason Morwick
• Tools for Remote Leaders: VirtualWorks - Free Resources

Debra Dinnocenzo discusses the challenges and importance of Saying NO to protect focus, priorities, and productivity. Dinnocenzo offers reasons why Saying YES to NO is critical in light of the daily grind faced by leaders and teams with endless priorities, conflicting demands, and insufficient time and resources to do everything that needs to be done – and to do it well. Leaders in hybrid/remote environments have a particular challenge to be on alert for signs of distress, frustration, and disengagement that can result from the demands placed on their team members. Therefore, creating a culture supportive of Saying NO is essential for remote leaders who must explore alternative ways to achieve the desired outcome and keep the focus on positive problem resolution. Learn why we all need a Stop Doing list instead of just having a To-Do list.

Rick Brandon and Debra Dinnocenzo discuss the role and important applications of political savvy in the workplace with a focus on the evolving hybrid/remote environment. Rick also overviews the key skills described in his book, Straight Talk, and discusses the essential aspects of communication from a distance. Hear why traditionally described ‘soft skills’ are becoming the vital skills for successful leadership in the new world of work and why leaders must step into the new methods, styles, and applications of traditional leadership skills to ensure productivity, profitability, and wellness in the workplace – all of which impacts team performance and talent retention.  

About the Guest:

Rick Brandon, Ph.D., is CEO of Brandon Partners, is a best-selling author and designer of flagship workshops on Organizational Savvy and the Motivational Tool Kit. With thirty years of performance improvement and interpersonal communication skills development, he has trained tens of thousands at companies worldwide, including scores of Fortune 500 companies.

Several clients urged Brandon to write Survival of the Savvy (Free Press, 2004), noting that too little material existed in the marketplace on this important competency. This straight-talking and practical book quickly made the Wall Street Journal bestseller list, was called “the definitive book on political savvy” by Robert Eichinger, founder of the Lominger Career Architect, and earned endorsements by thought leaders Ken Blanchard, Marshall Goldsmith, Harvey MacKay, and many CEO’s. It was Book of the Month for the Institute for Management Studies, Fast Company magazine, and Forbes CEO.com, & was reviewed in Harvard Business Review, Library Journal, Business Book Reviews, Executive Book Summaries, and many articles. The book’s core model is regularly presented at The Conference Board, American Society of Training and Development, the Institute for Management Studies (18 cities in 2005, the most requested program) and many companies’ Leadership Forums. 

Brandon is also the author of the recently released book, Straight Talk (Matt Holt, 2022), which hones core Assertive Speaking and Empathic Listening skills, and then funnels readers into step-by-step formats for six vital workplace situations: Gaining Commitments, Advising and Guiding, Recognizing, Reminding, Constructively Confronting, and Challenging Ideas. Dr. Brandon also delivers High-Impact Workshops, Keynote Presentations, Executive Coaching, Corporate Training and applied behavioral sciences consulting to enhance performance and organizational results.
