Post pandemic companies are increasingly taking diverse approaches to work policies, including remote work, returning to the office or adopting hybrid models. In response to these shifts, leadership trends are evolving to adapt to a more distributed workforce and are ready to accommodate remote teams. Leadership is an important barrier in adapting to new work trends, suggesting that leaders must develop new skills and approaches to effectively manage remote teams. One such skill is effective communication. Communication is an important key to successful remote leadership, as it enables leaders to inspire, motivate, guide and support their teams, even from a distance. By mastering the art and science of remote communication, leaders can help their teams achieve their goals and overcome any challenges they may face.

Effective communication also helps remote leaders to adapt their communication style and strategies to the needs and preferences of their followers as they need to be clear, concise, consistent and empathetic in their communication. They also need to provide frequent and timely feedback, recognition and support to their followers.

This course is designed to provide better understanding of various challenges of remote leadership ranging from fostering team motivation and cohesion to navigating

different time zones. Also, the course will include various ways of overcoming hurdles in the way of distance leadership by effectively harnessing the power of various communication styles and skills.
