February 24, 2022 07:00 - 4 minutes - 3.17 MB

Remote communication - Part 2: grabbing and holding attention

February 17, 2022 07:00 - 5 minutes - 3.94 MB

You are reading this. Notifications are popping up on Slack, Facebook, Whatsapp. You try to read this again. Someone calls you. Sounds familiar? That’s exactly what happens when you are trying to talk to your team and you aren’t getting through to them. You realize what is happening, but have no idea how to grab their attention. Luckily there are a few tricks you can use - these ones, take a look! Links and resources Remote Communication Follow me on LinkedIn On Facebook On Youtube...

Remote communication - Part 1: the emotional connection

February 10, 2022 07:00 - 7 minutes - 4.89 MB

Changes in how we interact can be overwhelming when we go fully remote on a structural level. I get it, and despite it being something you’ve done for months, it still may come across as weird or “uneasy” - had the same for myself and I had to figure things out in order to make it better with contacts and clients. There is a lot to discuss and we can go as advanced as you want, but there are three things that can make a major difference even at an early stage - I’d like to share them with ...

Go personal (forget work life balance)!

January 27, 2022 07:00 - 3 minutes - 2.43 MB

How is your work-life balance going? I’m asking because there is one thing that went largely unnoticed last year. The fact that talking about work-life balance does not make sense anymore. You are literally in your teams’ rooms with your camera, so what’s the point in still thinking work and life are two separate realities. It’s much, much more than just semantics, it’s about your role as a leader, take a look at what I mean. What do you think? Talk soon! Links and resources Follow me...

Is hybrid work a topic in your team? Better said: is it a heated topic? If you’ve got tensions going on and off in your team because of it, remember one thing: you have the power to make it go away.

Build their skills (to motivate)

January 13, 2022 07:00 - 5 minutes - 3.53 MB

You’re going hybrid, well done! Does that mean that your team is suddenly all set for success? In other words: how does your role change as their manager? It changes in many ways, but there’s one constant you can’t forget: your role in their development. It’s not that upskilling is now out of your radar, quite the contrary. Think about it: 47% of learners don’t feel their boss supports their career goal and 60% of learners say that their managers are NOT challenging them to learn a new...

Future of work and leaders: what happens in 2022

December 21, 2021 09:00 - 1 hour - 43.5 MB

The “future of work” is not future anymore: it’s NOW. We keep on talking about changes in work, culture and leadership dynamics like it’s something far, something that will happen in months or years… If there is one thing that the last few months have taught us though, it’s that these changes come, disrupt and leave much, much faster than we think - it’s already happened and it will happen again. Just think about all the topics we are in the middle of right now: - shifting to hybrid work...

Do nothing.

July 15, 2021 09:00 - 3 minutes - 2.57 MB

We'll be off soon, for some days or weeks - and I challenge you to do NOTHING. Or better said, nothing about work. Or if that doesn't sound right, make it your professional task to not do anything related to work. If there's one thing that this pandemic must have taught us it's that we need to be over our idea of working non-stop in order to be successful. Success is also being mentally healthy and caring about yourself. As a leader, you need to be balanced to lead others in a balanced ...

"You're just like a little girl"

July 05, 2021 10:00 - 4 minutes - 2.92 MB

"You're just like a little girl" That's what I heard a father at a playground telling his son because he was afraid of going down the slide. Wrong. Wrong on so many levels. While I don’t justify any part of that sentence, I think it’s worth thinking about where a sentence like that comes from and what consequences it can have. It's a biased narrative, and unfortunately chances are we all have bias that we are not even aware of that are worth thinking more about - especially if you are l...
