Harvard Business Review recently published an article featuring Connie Hadley, Research Associate Professor of Management and Organizations, offering valuable insights on effective team-building strategies for remote and hybrid teams.
In the modern workplace, managers must navigate the challenge of building strong connections among team members who might be spread across various locations. Successful team-building activities are essential for improving job performance, boosting creativity, fostering collaboration, and mitigating burnout and turnover.
“When we’re being vulnerable and revealing parts of ourselves that might not always feel comfortable, it can be a remarkable bridge builder,” Hadley explains.
Engaging in structured conversations, leveraging virtual tools, playing simulation games, and hosting occasional in-person gatherings are some strategies to create a positive, inclusive work environment supporting remote and hybrid teams, ultimately contributing to organizational success.
