Virtual Teams, Remote Working and Flexible Working Training Courses
Five reasons why you should choose a course from Knowledge Ability
- Your course leader, Dr John Gundry, is an international expert in virtual teaming, teleworking and e-working who advises and trains exclusively on these topics. Other companies may send you a general trainer who lacks expert knowledge and cannot handle off-script topics.
- Our world-leading course content is based on John Gundry's over 20 years' experience of virtual teaming, teleworking and e-working, the comments, contributions and insights of thousands of participants from hundreds of organisations, and a rigorous analysis of international research.
- Courses focus exclusively on the practical skills and approaches that determine performance and well-being in the remote e-workplace. They are delivered in a clear, concise and to-the-point manner. We don't waste your time or money on inflated courses padded with general material.
- In-house courses are tailored to your requirements from a uniquely-wide range of topics.
- We are a small company with low overheads and that is reflected in our prices. You are not paying for head office staff.
Successful Telework Workshop
The essential curriculum for teleworkers and their managers. This one-day Workshop equips participants with the essential practical knowledge, skills and approaches that make teleworking a long-term success. As more and more organisations adopt teleworking, we are learning more and more about what makes it successful and sustainable, and what doesn't.
You need this course
o If your teleworkers and their managers feel they've never achieved the productivity and easier lifestyle they were told teleworking would bring,
o If managers resist teleworking because they don't trust staff to work from home,
o If you want to prevent isolation and a worsening work-life balance becoming the realities of home working,
o If moving from occasional to full-time teleworking has brought an avalanche of unsuspected problems,
o Or if you want to start or refresh a telework programme with people having the right expectations, skills and approaches.
Who should attend: Teleworkers; managers of teleworkers; intact teams of teleworkers and their managers; those strategising teleworking and flexible working programmes. Participants will take away 50-page textbook-quality Workshop Documentation and a separate Telework Checklist of key action items for teleworkers and managers of teleworkers.
