How to balance workload in your hybrid team

It can be tough distributing work in a hybrid environment.

After all you've got people dialing in from their living room and others chipping in from the office - it's like trying to conduct an orchestra that's split between two stages!

How do you tweak your leadership style to make sure the work is shared evenly, teamwork is buzzing, and productivity's flying high?

Here’s how:

1.      Begin with understanding the strengths, skills, and preferences of each team member.

2.      Take into account their expertise and capacity, ensuring tasks are distributed evenly.

3.      Strive for transparency and open communication to foster a collaborative environment where team members feel psychologically safe to seek support.

Now, let's talk delegation – the art of tapping into your team's full potential.

4.      Trust your team members to take ownership of tasks that align with their skills and developmental goals.

5.      Provide clear instructions, resources, and support to enable their success.

By delegating responsibilities based on their strengths and goals, you’ll create an environment where everyone can step up and make a real impact.

How do you strike the perfect balance in workload distribution and delegation within your hybrid team?
