We're LIVE! With @dessalen (and surprise guest) to discuss which #leadership skills are "nice-to-have" and which are "must-have". You'll have an opportunity to provide your input. Join us here: bit.ly/2XuMuZ3 #TeVirtualEvents #TeVE #SuddenlyRemote
Tech Savvy - this has taken on a whole new meaning! You must be able to navigate multiple platforms. How many minutes have you wasted trying to connect technologies? Also, can you remain calm when it doesn't work?😱 Watch your tone of voice. #TeVirtualEvents #SuddenlyRemote #TeVE
Tech Savvy - You will lose credibility as being a leader. You're essentially wasting people's time⏰ You will isolate yourself and you will look outdated if you don't brush up on your tech skills. Prioritize tech building sessions for ALL! #TeVE #SuddenlyRemote #TeVirtualEvents
TRUST - Think it's OLD news? It's not. People are motivated by 3 things - Autonomy, Relatedness, and Competence (Self-determination Theory). What does a baby have to do with this? 👶Check out the full recording for the full explanation. #TeVE #TeVirtualEvents
Try this question in an exchange. Dessalen has seen great results with this question. This will prompt so much conversation!

"People wouldn't work is they didn't have to"
"These self entitled millennials want a participation ribbon"
"If you give an inch, they will take a mile"
Let people work when they are feeling creative!?!? 🤯 #Leadership #SuddenlyRemote #TeVirtualEvents
DEEP CONNECTIONS - Listen to the rattling before it becomes a clunk (car reference). ASK people - How are you doing? How are you feeling? How are things at home? Dig in to help adjust around their needs. Active listening 👂. Understand them more deeply. Lead with empathy. 💜
DEEP CONNECTIONS (top 3 takeaways)-

- Active listening
- Empathy
- Extraordinary Respect

#BringPeopleTogether #TeVE #TeVirtualEvents #SuddenlyRemote #WFH
These are some of the thoughts that came from an exchange that @davyno launched (early on in the pandemic) to our whole company. Deep connection can be across all teams, it needs to be inclusive. #TeVE #TeVirtualEvents #BringPeopleTogether #SuddenlyRemote
If a 🐅 can adapt to hang around a 🐖 and NOT eat it, you should also be able to adapt to a more inclusive #leadership style. #SuddenlyRemote #BringPeopleTogether
Let's reimagine resilience -

Resilience vs Grit.
The ability to reimagine oneself in the face os change, vs being inflexible and doubling down. Ability to pivot & change! Be like Hydra🔽🔽🔽

CROWDSOURCING -

This is being understood now as a #leadership capability! This is becoming so important because there are multiple layers to organizations. Look to a larger group of people for knowledge. @Gartner_inc #BringPeopleTogether #crowdsourcing #TeVirtualEvents #TeVE
Trusting the wisdom of the crowd is a learned skill. It takes time and practice but it's worth the effort! Leaders who crowdsource from a wider range of people will experience less pushback and more buy-in from the group because they were involved in the decision-making process.
Running and exchange now for our Q&A. Have you seen this live before? #Crowdsourcing thoughts & insights in real-time! This is what the connections look like 🔽🔽 @Dessalen will discuss the top thoughts, which makes the most of our time together! #TeVE #TeVirtualEvents
Your attitude changes after your behavior changes. Example: "Remote work CAN actually work!" (Now that the world has been forced to try it). Make digital leadership more accessible! Give people the right tools to do this properly & Promote them internally to support your efforts.
#Leadership - Admitting that you don't have all the answers! Now is the time to be wrong? It shows transparency. People are giving leaders and organizations more patience and grace to make mistakes and be open about it. Try new things and be open and honest about your intentions.
Thank you to all of our attendees (and Graham Wood too!!) who joined us, participated in our #Thoughtexchange and left great comments in the chatbox! If you've missed this one, stay tuned for the next #SuddenlyRemote #TeVE. Browse them all here: bit.ly/31V409R
