π©βπ§βπ¦π¨βπ¨βπ¦βπ¦ Your team will have changed dramatically in the last 8 weeks – beyond schooling arrangements and the comfort / discomfort of working from home or the hours worked. Don’t assume that the team you had going into isolation will behave the same as the team coming out of isolation. Your team members may have a very different relationship with:
πΉYou – as both leader, mentor, peer or friend
πΉThe business – is the trust still there
πΉSecurity (both physical and financial)
πΉChallenge – they are looking from work
πΉAutonomy – and micromanagement
πΉHow important work is to them overall
πΉThe support they are looking from the team
πΉThe future they see at your business
There is no need to be afraid of having this conversation with your team – I am sure your relationship as a leader / manager has also changed in relation to a number of the dot points.As a leader, we deal with who we have and the situation in front of us NOW, not what it was. Take the opportunity to bring yourself up to date with your team’s expectations.
