Cornell Manager Panel: Managing Hybrid Teams & Remote Employees - September 22, 2021

Hybrid work presents many benefits and opportunities for an organization, teams, and individual employees. There are differences in managing a hybrid team versus a fully on-site or fully remote team to consider, though. It is also different managing a hybrid team in a pandemic vs. strategic long-term hybrid work.

Learn from three Cornell directors (who successfully led hybrid teams prior to the pandemic) for a discussion about day-to-day management strategies, possible pitfalls, and differences with managing hybrid teams in a crisis. Discussion topics include communication flow, contending with an “us versus them” undercurrent, equitably supporting the career growth and development of those on your team, how to integrate playfulness and fun, shared agreements on video and messaging platforms, and much more.

Panelists:

• Beth Goelzer Lyons, Director of Customer Experience, CIT and Policy Editor, University Policy Office
• Scott Schultz, Director of Creative Development, eCornell
• Leslie Del Angel, Director of Instructional Design, eCornell

Facilitator: Michelle Artibee, Director of Workforce Wellbeing, Human Resources
