Remote, Not Distant: Build a Strong Culture to Thrive in a Hybrid Workplace

The culture that got you here, won’t get you there. Leaders worry about the erosion of their culture –  shared values, unspoken rules, and behaviors established over the years in large part by people interacting in person. The hybrid workplace is forcing leaders to re-think the workplace, making it harder to model the desired culture. Human connections, belonging, inclusion, trust, and creativity are suffering.

How can you keep your culture alive – and healthy – in a remote environment? It’s time to reset your culture.

What your team will learn:

  • Why you must reset your company culture
  • Culture in a hybrid workplace: the 5 shifts
  • Yes, you can build culture remotely
  • The role of leaders: define, demonstrate, demand
  • Rethinking collaboration and communication
  • Mistakes to avoid 

Build A Fearless Culture

There are two groups of company cultures: fearful and fearless. The first are driven by fear, anxiety, control, and perfectionism, getting the worst out of people.

Fearless cultures, on the other hand, promote courageous conversations, address conflict in the open, encourage people to be themselves, and accelerate collaboration and innovation.

Design a fearless culture to help your people work faster and smarter.

What your team will learn:

  • What separates Fearless Cultures from Fearful ones (and what you can do about it)
  • How to drive innovation by turning safe spaces into courageous spaces
  • Why Fearless Cultures thrive, especially during a crisis

How to Increase Psychological Safety in Hybrid Teams

Psychological Safety Accelerates Trust and Collaboration

Psychological Safety is the #1 factor to create high-performing teams, according to research by Google. By removing the fear of speaking up, organizations can tap into collective wisdom. Encourage your team to share their best ideas, take risks, and be less conforming.

Psychological Safety has become even more critical now that most organizations are working remotely – longer hours, more meetings, and blurred lines between personal life and work. This engaging virtual or in-person session will help your team create a safe, trustworthy, inclusive, and innovative culture.

What your team will learn:

  • Why Psychological Safety is the foundation of agile, collaborative, and innovative organizations
  • The Psychological Safety Ladder: building belonging, cognitive diversity, and innovation–one step at a time
  • The paradox of psychological safety: creating courageous conversations when trust is not there
  • Rethinking the role of the leader: psychological safety is created by everyone
  • Tools and exercises to improve trust, feedback, creativity, and teamwork
  • How to get you started
