The High-Stakes Shift to Remote and Hybrid Leadership

The shift to remote and hybrid work environments has changed expectations of staff and potential candidates. With some businesses pushing to return to the office it is important to understand what you are risking and what opportunities you may be missing. Leadership of remote and hybrid teams presents opportunities but also challenges.

If you are struggling to;

  • Drive productivity, accountability and performance when your team isn’t in one place
  • Delegate and maintain control without micromanaging
  • Attract, onboard and coach top talent
  • Retain your top talent

Join us along with our presenters, who are some of the most insightful and knowledgeable voices in the worlds of remote and hybrid work, for an evening of Education, Networking, Nibbles and a few relaxing drinks.

Your Host

BEN SHIPLEY

Chief Growth Officer at Offshore Talent

Having spent 20 years building and running teams across the world (31 countries and counting), I am bringing together the people that I go to when I want to have a conversation about how to get the most out of my teams. Expectations have changed and despite many companies pushing for return to the office, the expectation of top talent now values remote or hybrid flexibility above almost everything else. The skill to build, lead and retain remote and hybrid teams is the new super power in leadership. Join us as we share what we have learnt, are learning and seeing coming.
