DOING HYBRID RIGHT

2020 forced us to change the way we work. Most of us moved entire workforces to work from home. We adapted our products and services. We embraced technology to communicate and engage in team meetings. I have witnessed people thrive and adapt, lead change fast and build resilience. But I also see employees and business owners being exhausted, depleted, overwhelmed by ongoing uncertainty and struggling with burnout symptoms. Many leaders said to me at the end of 2020 they just wanted a break and a refresh for 2021. It’s now June and we are still talking about the same challenges. 

I work with executives, team leaders and departmental heads around the world. Here is what they say to me:

– ‘Technically our online meetings work fine, but they don’t have the same outcomes as when we were in the office’. 

  –  ‘My workload doubled but my hours haven’t’.  

  –  ‘I go from one Zoom meeting to another and don’t get any real work done’.  

  –  ‘The human-to-human connection using online platforms is not the same, we are losing the social aspect in our team.’    

–  ‘I am going through a restructure and am in charge of redundancies. That really affects me. Especially doing them via MS Teams.’ 

   –  ‘I don’t know how to keep my teams focussed and motivated in this hybrid set up’.  

The hybrid workplace model, where most employees have the flexibility to work from both the office and from home, is fast becoming reality for most organisations. But getting hybrid right isn’t easy and leaders struggle to fully engage their teams, keep their people motivated, juggle work-life balance and find the right level of productivity without employees burning out.

Here is what clients say about working with Jessica

"Jessica has the ability to energise a session and strikes a great balance between 'structure' and 'getting on with it'. Jessica keeps theory to a minimum and focuses on people, relationships and practical application."  

Service Delivery Director  

Her Majesty’s Passport Office at UK Home Office  

"Jessica gave key pointers concisely, almost 'bite-size' fashion which the individuals can immediately put to practice. Her simple but 'action-packed' style of delivery is commendable."

Senior Leader 

ANZ Bank – NYC Branch  

"Jessica is young but has lots of wisdom in helping other people grow. She is aware of the necessary skills leaders need in business and in life to be successful. I wish I could have known this in the early years of my career."

"Jessica was immediately at ease with our group and made the training session informative, focused and practical but also engaging - the time passed really quickly but left me with real tangible take-aways that were entirely relevant to my daily work and experience. Highly recommended."

ABOUT YOUR FACILITATOR

I often get asked ‘Why do you do what you do? Why coaching and developing people?’ The answer is easy: I care! And I am curious. 

But I am also really passionate about business.

Born near Cologne in Germany and educated in Business, English 

and French, I have lived and worked in 6 different countries and 

have spent most of my last 17 years in New Zealand, Australia, 

Hong Kong and Japan. No matter which industry I worked in, from hospitality to real estate and education, working with people and helping my teams to kick ass and be the best they can be excites me. 

And helping the business to grow, operationally as well as in 

business development always has been front and centre of what I 

do.

I work with leaders in 1:1 coaching sessions, design and facilitate group leadership workshops and share insights in panels and keynotes globally. Since the world changed in March 2020, I have transformed my business ‘Intact Teams’ to be completely digital and focus on helping people to lead remote teams, navigate through complexities in an ambiguous world of constant change and adopt leadership skills for the 21st Century workplace.
