tanked. Managing your costs is important to your growth and survival, and when the economy is
performing poorly, it is even more of a challenge. Experts say that 58% of companies have a
shortfall in leaders and many companies are actually cutting their development budget as part of
their cost cutting measures.

The Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted and rearranged the workplace with breathtaking speed. In the span of a week, organizations across every sector have sent millions of employees to work remotely with the lockdown restriction. Without warning — and in many cases, without preparation of any kind — managers have been thrust into the position of leading virtual teams, many for the first time. It’s challenging enough to manage yourself in quarantine without face-to-face human interaction and the structure of a typical workday. Now add to that the task of managing a team under those conditions, especially when we’ve never done it before. It’s daunting. Onboarding a new leader remotely requires careful planning. While joining a new company or team is like to an organ transplant—and you are the new organ. If you are not thoughtful in adapting to the new situation, you could end up being attacked by the organizational immune system and rejected. Pressurized conditions, heightened uncertainty, and an overall sense of dislocation make it even more difficult. This slide offers the strategies on how to adopt the First 90 days strategies into a remote working in VUCA environment.

Developing Your Personal Career Strategy
Successful organizations create strategic plans to provide a long-term vision of what they aim to become. They also specify goals and related objectives and then strategic plans that will take them incrementally toward the realization of the vision. This process parallels as a useful paradigm for successful career management. This document can help you develop a personal career management strategy and plan. It gives an overview of the career development process and brief description of each stage and introduces exercises culminating in your own plan.
The 6 Stages of Career Development
The model below depicts the six stages of the career development cycle. In progressing through the stages, you will develop goals and strategies for pursuing a satisfying career. Over time, you will cycle through the process again as you evolve. Career decisions are not one-time events, but steps in a life-long career development process. Research indicates that, on average, people change jobs seven times and careers.

So you want to start a social enterprise?Pilotlight
As the funding climate for charities becomes increasingly challenging, many are seeing social enterprise as a way of diversifying their income streams to create a sustainable business model. However, with failure rates for new businesses in the private sector running at nearly 50% in the first five years, how can charities give their ideas the best chance of converting to ventures that deliver?
At Pilotlight we bring teams of business leaders, our Pilotlighters, together with charities and social businesses to give them the strategic support they need to become more efficient, effective and sustainable. We asked some of our Pilotlighters who have built their own businesses, to share the questions that they think every organisation should ask before starting a social enterprise. They’ve also provided the answers that we hope will help you think through and start to plan your new venture.
Q1: Why set up a new business?
Q2: Who are our customers and what are they looking for?
Q3: What do we want the business to look and feel like in a few years time?
Q4: Will we have the cash available to fund what we need, when we need it?
Q5: What might go wrong and how could we respond?
Q6: Do we have the capability to deliver the social enterprise effectively?
Q7: How do we build the right team to plan and launch it?
Q8: How will we build customer awareness and demand for our offering?
Q9: How do we make sure that our current employees and volunteers don't see the social enterprise as a threat to what they do or what the charity does?
Q10: How do we know if we’re making progress?
Q11: We have never attempted anything quite on this scale, how do we set ourselves up for success?
Q12: What kind of partnerships will help us succeed?
Other things to consider
Sooner or later you’ll find your-self leading a team where one.docxrosemariebrayshaw
Sooner or later you’ll find your-self leading a team where one
or more of your people work
remotely. You can turn this situa-
tion into an advantage by leverag-
ing diverse backgrounds and
highly motivated employees. To do
this, you’ll need to avoid the possi-
ble communication and effective-
ness pitfalls and make sure you’re
making use of all the means at
your disposal to operate effectively
from a distance. Interestingly
enough, my experiences in P&G as
both a remote manager and a
remote employee have made me a
more disciplined manager.
Various situations, be it with
remote teams who work from
their homes or international
employees in different time zones,
bring unique characteristics to
which you’ll need to adjust your
management style. That said, the
basics for any manager remain the
same—you just have to do them
better. Do them well, and you’ll
have a highly energized and driven
work team. The consequences of
not doing so are twice as disas-
trous with remote teams.
What You Can Do
Let me share some of my favorite
must-do items for any remote
leader.
1. Energize your team with a
vision. To win as a team and as an
organization, it’s critical to involve
your remote group in the creation
and deployment of a common
vision. Ask yourself what your
most important breakthrough will
be, and set this as the direction
that propels your people and your
action plan. If it isn’t possible to do
this face to face, take time to have a
brainstorming forum, group chats,
and calls with video where you
come to a clear, meaningful state-
ment of the accomplishment your
team will be known for.
2. Engage them with a robust
action plan. This is probably one
of the most critical aspects of
remote leadership. Each team
member needs to feel engaged and
have a clear understanding about
what will be requested from them
or their teams, how it will be mea-
sured, and when you will expect it.
To do this well is to set a solid
foundation and clear the way for
what will come. Draft an action
plan with a clear link to your
vision, and engage each team
member individually with the
objectives assigned to them. Align
on the way updates will be pre-
sented and on key milestones.
Give examples of the way you like
updates to be presented and the
data you expect to see in them.
3. Be in touch with your team.
You need to be disciplined about
having periodic touchpoints in
order to stay connected. Watch out
for overly independent employees
who think they don’t need direc-
tion and allow the distance to
grow. It’s important to align prior-
ities, review action-plan progress,
and talk about career develop-
ment. It also doesn’t hurt to build
a personal relationship that fosters
trust and open communication.
Though there are various con-
straints, mostly financial, make
sure to schedule face-to-face time
as much as possible, and, again,
make use of the vast array of avail-
able videoconferencing te.
