· Building a positive culture with remote, global teams in the pandemic
· How recognizing small wins to provide enjoyment, hope and satisfaction
· Boosting your empathy levels
· Recommendations on better leadership amid the COVID-19 “rollercoaster”
"Too often the assumption is that the best answers come the most senior people, but the best answers come from collaboration with the whole team.
