Using Online Learning to support the change
Helping your people thrive is our business. New ways of working offer great opportunities to the organisation and its people. But we also recognise the change to a new way of working can be a source of anxiety and insecurity for many people. This change challenges old behaviours, habituated from working in a certain way, and the sudden loss of "my own desk" can be destabilising. This sense of loss can extend to a loss of team connection, a loss of professional direction... a loss of identity.
As a leader, what can you do to mitigate against this anxiety?
Generally, people have a deep desire to thrive. Thriving enables them to feel competent, trust themselves and be accountable to others. Nurture your people and build competence in working in a new way, and you will set them (and your org) up for success; you will set them both up to thrive.
Convenient, self-directed learning
Through MOOCs, Linda.com etc, online learning has become the go-to for gaining new skills and improved performance. Adults are generally motivated to learn on a need-basis. They seek the information and skills to thrive when they need it. That is why on-demand online medium is perfect. It doesn’t replace face-to-face training, coaching or mentoring but it does provide an excellent foundation from which to further build people's competency.
With this in mind and drawing on 30 years' experience in new ways of working, Veldhoen + Company have developed these engaging and interactive online courses (with more to come!)
- Intro to Activity Based Working/New Ways of Working
- How to become more paper independent
