Making Remote Work, Work (For You) was held on February 2, 2021

​Sorry you missed this workshop! There are any current plans to offer this workshop in the near future.


​Details


Your office is suddenly in the laundry room, and your precious home office has been repurposed for the “virtual classroom.” Working in sweatpants and attending Zoom Happy Hours lost their feeling of novelty months ago. Your motivation ebbs and flows; your feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, and procrastination seem much higher than usual; and you’re trying to prep for your noon call while the members of your household keep asking you “what’s for lunch?” 

If any of the above sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Suddenly, our personal and professional lives have been conflated into one chaotic scene called “working from home.” The things that worked before aren’t always working now. 

We don’t just need tools to “work more effectively remotely.” We also need tools to “work more effectively” in the ever-evolving chaos of our current reality.  

During this session, we will explore this topic from two primary perspectives: 

  • Mental and Emotional - how can we show up at our best each day? How can we restore our inner reserves? How can we navigate the inevitable ups and downs of this time with ease and grace? How can we find energy and motivation when we feel depleted?

  • Structural and Tactical - how can we work more effectively remotely? What are the tools, systems, structures, and technologies that can support us along the way? How can we structure our days to maximize our effectiveness and results? 

The session will include a mix of exploration, reflection, and practical tools that you can apply back out in the real (remote) world.

​ZOOM Video Conferencing


You do not need any special software or equipment to attend other than computer speakers or headphones. You will connect to the Zoom session via a web link that will be provided a few days prior to the class. Within Zoom, we have the ability to pair you into small discussion groups for round table discussions. Therefore, a webcam and microphone (or telephone) will be helpful but is not required. Zoom is very easy to use. However, if you would like to set-up a practice round prior to the class, please email Jennifer Hess at jhess@uwsp.edu to set-up a time.
