SYNOPSIS
If you manage or supervise hybrid workers or want to modify your management style to support this new model, then this on-demand viewing is for you!
Last year’s rapid shift to remote work challenged lawyers and professional staff to change how they work together, stay engaged with their work, and prioritize their well-being in the process. Now, we face a new legal practice model that combines both in-office and remote workers—the hybrid workforce.
Learn how to:
• Understand what a Hybrid Legal Workforce is
• Evaluate and Assess Existing and New Staff Roles and Accountabilities for a Hybrid Workforce
• Effectively Engage and Communicate with Hybrid Workers
• Meet your Ethics and Professional Responsibility Requirements
