How leaders inspire while working remotely

Explore the strategies great coaches use to ensure clarity, while inspiring and developing their people, even when faced with uncertainty

In difficult times, the people within your organization who are most likely to stay committed are the ones who have clarity and feel they’re moving forward with their personal development.

The person with the greatest ability to provide that clarity and help drive that development forward is their leader; their coach.

On June 11 at 1 p.m. (EDT), join Smith Business Insight and Queen’s Executive Education for this free 60-minute webinar exploring the strategies great coaches use to ensure clarity, while inspiring and developing their people, even when faced with uncertainty.

Led by Cyndie Flett, one of Canada’s leading experts on coaching, this webinar will introduce you to tools that leaders can use to overcome the logistical challenges of building engagement while working remotely.

You will come away with a better understanding of the role coaches play in supporting people to rise to the occasion. You’ll also gain practical tools that you can immediately apply, backed up by examples and best practices from top coaches.


Participants will learn: 

  • How to overcome common blocks to giving effective feedback when leading remotely.

  • What “overcommunication” really means and the specifics of what information people need to hear, when they need to hear it, and how it needs to be delivered.

  • How to use focusing and clarifying questions, with examples that can be used immediately.

  • Tools and strategies for building a communication system and overcoming the logistical challenges that leaders of remote teams face.


Following the presentation, there will be time for a Q&A with our speaker.
