[09:03 – 18:06] Leaders Struggle to Keep Up During the Pandemic

• Leaders have always been accidental, but the pandemic has changed that.
• Before the pandemic, leaders could be accidental because they had enough people to manage and they didn’t have to worry about them.
• Now, with the pandemic, leaders have to be intentional in their approach to managing their remote teams.
• One of the ways leaders can be intentional is by taking steps to be healthy themselves.

[18:06 – 26:20] Leaders need to check in with people to ensure a healthy foundation

• The five factors that leaders should consider when assessing their own performance are sense of purpose, place, provision, personal health, and people.
• Individuals’ sense of purpose changed during the pandemic, as they were more aware of their purpose in the world.
• Physical location is also a significant factor for leaders, as those who are remote may not have access to the same types of resources that those who are in the office do.
• Leaders should be aware of how their communication styles are affecting their team’s productivity.”
