Leadership Development in the Hybrid Era

Category:

We love this Harvard Business Review article on Leadership Development in the Hybrid Era because this new research aligns perfectly with our philosophy for sustained skill development. The bottom line is to provide nutrient rich concepts (Sensemaking), tangible skill building (Experimenting), and explicit feedback (Self-discovery). And all of this content should be delivered in a variety of live, in person, virtual, and asynchronous vehicles, just like the current hybrid workplace.

Sensemaking - In our large-group seminars (usually 1-2 hours, in person or virtual), we discuss the power of specific nonverbal behaviors and how they can positively or negatively influence an image of credibility.

Experimenting - In our small-group skill building sessions (usually 2-3 hours, in person or virtual), we distill our concepts down to tangible actions so that our clients can try them on for themselves and begin to build new habits.

Self-discovery - In our small-group or one-on-one sessions (in person or virtual), we offer explicit feedback and on camera coaching to elevate our clients’ self-awareness regarding their own habits and mannerisms while offering a unique plan of action for their personal growth.

Additionally, we provide access to a self-directed, asynchronous practice program for supplemental support following our live sessions. Our practice suggestions focus on building mini practice moments into the daily work routine so that new habits will take hold organically and feel second nature.
