Course Overview

Since the start of the lockdown, many of us are adjusting to our new reality of working and managing teams from home. With this brings many new challenges, some practical, some psychological and others that are slightly less obvious.  Developed during the lockdown, this suite of courses draws upon the direct experiences of the team and Subject Matter Experts, who collaborated remotely to bring you all the information you need to be an effective team leader.

Approach

This Future Ways of Working toolkit brings the learning to life through innovative use of dramatised video scenarios using remote meeting software to show learners how best to utilise software to communicate, lead and meet productivity goals. Due to the social distancing policy, our actors filmed themselves in their own homes using software on their computers, lending additional authenticity to the scenarios which our characters find themselves in.

Supporting the learning and providing context to the videos, we have interactive e-learning screens for learners to test their understanding and engage directly with the material.
