AMSSA Webinar: The Art of Working Remotely
Every manager is responsible for nurturing “the employee experience” at work. But there’s a lot that goes into fostering a positive employee experience and building a culture where employees feel supported, heard, and valued. This interactive session is designed to assist settlement and integration service providers with the challenges and opportunities found in working remotely. This webinar will explore:
• Best practices relating to remote management including remote delegation, managing expectations, and one-to-one meetings.
• Concrete tips on how to battle the fatigue of working from home on virtual platforms.
• Specific ways that settlement and integration service providers can enhance their support of each other in the workplace while adapting to the continuing challenges of working from home.
The session will combine a lecture format with interactive feedback and will include the participation of 2 settlement sector representatives from diverse regions of BC who will share their experiences with working remotely. To conclude, the floor will be opened for a general “Q and A” session with the facilitator where participants will be invited to pose questions and solidify their understanding of the topics presented.
