Does Your Leadership Team Meet Face-to-Face?

The working environment has evolved over the past couple of years, into a more flexible arrangement. For many, this has meant a big increase in time spent remote working/working from home.

The downside of that, is losing the level of connection you get with face-to-face meetings and the benefits of talking things over with colleagues in person.

There’s a level of spontaneity, nuance and energy in face-to-face meetings that just can’t be duplicated when interacting online (e.g. on Zoom/Teams). Those factors can make a significant difference to what is achieved and how team members relate to one another.

One of the business coaching and mentoring roles I provide, is to work with leadership teams. One team I met with recently, has now committed to some rules of engagement to help them work effectively together. They have agreed to:

  • Meet once a month face to face
  • Book these leadership team meetings in advance for the year ahead
  • Commit to organising themselves to be there

Because let’s face it, it’s much easier to get to know someone when they’re in the same room!
