The working world will continue to evolve, so it’s important that companies adapt their training to address those changes accordingly. Remaining flexible and being able to pivot and adjust to new employee needs will play a major role in organizational success throughout 2021. The main takeaway is: training is more vital than ever!

If you weren’t using software to train people prior to the pandemic, then you certainly are now. If you didn’t know what micro learning was before the pandemic, then you certainly do now. The word virtual may have referred to things in the far distant future in the past, but now, virtual everything is front and center.

Technology is everywhere and we cannot escape it. So, let’s embrace it! Some people may be reluctant to change the way they do things because it involves using technology that’s new to them. People fear change and thus they fear technology too! It’s understandable and quite normal to fear the unknown, but one way to overcome fear is to acknowledge it and learn how to overcome it.

Now that we are all working from home during these times of social distancing, the way we work and collaborate with our coworkers on a daily basis has changed. We find ourselves keeping in touch and meeting with each other in online, virtual meetings. There are many different virtual meeting platforms out there to choose from. One of the most popular choices being selected by many companies as their means to collaborate and get things done is Microsoft Teams.

Managing remote workers brings unique challenges compared to teams being together in an office setting.

Executives that are not modernizing their workplace, digitally transforming their company, or improving their customer experiences will surely struggle to keep their business competitive. Solutions like Microsoft® Teams offer leaders a viable option as part of their technical evolution.

One of the biggest challenges companies face as they transition to working remotely is how to communicate effectively. You can’t simply get up and walk to a co-worker’s desk to ask them a question now, but you also don’t want to clutter up their email inbox. Productivity applications and platforms like Slack, Skype and Microsoft Teams are here to help. The main issue is deciding which one is right for your team and how you will manage the change with your group to ensure performance levels remain high.
