Learnings From the Home Office: What We Have Learned About Remote Work and Leadership

When the first wave of the pandemic swept over the globe, resulting in a far-reaching lock-down, many found themselves in a new situation trying to figure out how to work and lead their team from their kitchen table. Inka Partanen had started her new job as Business Manager at the Finnish online media plattform Rakentaja.fi just a week before the lock-down, and had only met a handful of her new team members before everyone was asked to stay home. 

In this podcast Inka Partanen shares her experience of working and leading remotely. In conversation with Annika Häggblom from TalentMiles some of the key learnings are uncovered:

• How can you as a leader support your team in uncertain times?
• What should we talk more about in remote teams?
• How do you get started in a new management role remotely?
• What have been the surprising benefits of remote work and how could we capitalise on these more?
