Just finished listening 🎧 to this great podcast from Bailey & French . The discussion was around making virtual (and hybrid) workplaces truly collaborative, inclusive, and nurturing a sense of belonging. As virtual vs hybrid vs office-based work discussions continue it's well worth a listen, here are some key takeaways that resonated with me: 💡 Watch out for team members being left out of conversations across other platforms they might not have access to or know about. It can impact inclusivity and belonging. 💡Consider individual preferences, especially among neurodiverse team members, and ensure everyone’s needs are being met. 💡Prioritise psychological safety by using chat functionality during meetings to encourage participation. 💡Don’t assume anything about tech access or knowledge; be prepared and sensitive when pushing boundaries. 💡Embrace the use of GIFs for humour and human connectiveness in virtual teams. 💡As hybrid models become the norm, prepare for inclusive and effective meetings with both in-person and virtual participants. #virtualteams #inclusivity #teamsuccess #remotework #collaboration
