Managers in the Middle: Tips for building and maintaining strong and effective teams in remote or hybrid work environments
Wednesday, October 25 | 8:30a – 12p | Workshop #5
Presented by Courtney D. Swaney, Attain Partners; Robyn Remotigue, The University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth; and Elena Mota, The University of Texas at Austin
Research Administration looks a lot different with hybrid and remote work environments being the new norm. Some employees are anxious to go back into the office, while many appreciate and want to continue remote work and are leaving their current institution in search of remote opportunities. As the Research Administration workforce shifts, institutions that are fully in-person or hybrid are feeling the crunch. Managers of hybrid and remote teams have the challenging task of onboarding and creating a team environment while maintaining employee/team productivity and building morale without micromanaging. A major challenge is creating a team environment without the option of bringing the team together in person. Come to this interactive workshop to share and gain ideas on how to best encourage employee engagement with others to help build strong, cohesive teams.
