Welcome back to the Effective Virtual Conversations daily reading series which I am hosting in April and May 2020. I hope that you are enjoying it. Did you listen into yesterday’s post around the One Page Plan? Have you picked up your download? Go back and listen back in…. Today brings us to pages 94 to 96 of my 2017 book, Effective Virtual Conversations. Retention is an important topic for all of us in the remote space. What’s going to help people remember your work? Today we also cover some key topics around group development, a 5th area where remote leaders will benefit from. This bucket includes building trust and creating connection (covered earlier in chapter 2 of Effective Virtual Conversations) as well as Conflict Management and Creating Consensus. Note that the topic of Conflict Management is something we recently dedicated an episode to at the Remote Pathways podcast. If you are not yet a subscriber…please join us via your favorite podcast player, or listen into the episode here. Wishing you the best, Jennifer Jennifer Britton
