Welcome back to Day 35 of the Effective Virtual Conversations Daily reading series. After spending a few days looking at supporting goals in the remote space as well as group development and some of the key virtual team work skills, today we are exploring the 6th bucket of virtual and remote skills – Ourselves as the Facilitator and Leader. In this section I cover:
  • Presence
  • Complexity and Being Comfortable in Not Knowing
  • Simplification
  • Self-Awareness
  • And Self-Management
 
The pathways to masterful virtual facilitation doesn’t stop – whether we’ve been working this way for months, years or decades. There is usually another layer of mastery.
 
Enjoy today’s recording and be sure to join us for an upcoming Virtual Facilitation Essentials program if you are looking amplify your skills and use of the tools available to us in the remote space. The program is offered as a one day virtual Train-the-Trainer as well as a five week extended series.

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,

Welcome back to another daily installment of this spring 2020 author reading series. It’s great to have you listen in. We’ve just been looking at the importance of facilitating conversation virtually around goals, particularly when people are working remote.

In today’s installment, I’ve finally gotten to one of my favorite tools which I use with groups all.the.time -The One Page Plan. Be sure to listen in carefully as I provide you with a link to a downloadable template.
 
We also explore another invaluable Practitioner’s Tip – 3 Tools to Work with Goals and Problem Solving. In this section I describe 3 tools I am sure you can put into practice right away.

If you are enjoying the series, please be sure to share with others and let us know in the comments what you are putting into practice, as well as your experience with it.

Best,

Welcome back to my daily Effective Virtual Conversations reading. Today we are covering pages 87 to 90 of the book, taking a look at the 4th “bucket” of virtual facilitation skills – Tools for Conversations. These are further elaborated upon in Chapter 7 which is fully dedicated to tools for virtual facilitation.
 
In this part of the chapter, I explore working with GOALs. This is a key area for remote team alignment and one teams may not be checking in around as regularly.
 
Listen in as I explore:
  • Working with Goals
  • Goals at Different Organizational Levels
  • Different Goal Frameworks
 
Enjoy the focus on goals today? What do you want to clarify or have conversation around?

Best,
Jennifer

Welcome back! I hope that you had a great weekend. Routines are key in the virtual space, and I am continuing to enjoy weekend time here at home with a more relaxed pace. With that in mind, I'll be doing readings for Effective Virtual Conversations during the weekday.

How has your week started and how many virtual conversations do you have planned this week? I hope that you will find these short 5-7 minute weekday installments useful in your work.

Here in episode 4 I cover pages 10-14 of my 2017 book, Effective Virtual Conversations.

Today I share The Driving Force Behind the Book (why I wrote it) and I share the contents of the first 5 of 12 chapters of the book.

Listen in and be sure to share this with other colleagues!


Try this, this week: Note the things that keep your virtual calls moving this week. What are the things that help accelerate the conversation?
