THREE KEY POINTS FROM INTERVIEW NUMBER 18:

– Leaders that can develop trust in the digital world

– ENGAGING digital meetings

– Leaders with a high EQ, CQ and skills in behaviors

1:
Leaders in the near future will have to have the ability to develop good relationships and trust in a digital setting – especially with people that they have no previous relationship with. How do we do that? We have no training in it and no previous experience.

2:
We need to learn techniques in how to conduct digital meetings that are in demand and that people want to attend. There will be a risk that we think we know how to practically attend digital meetings, and therefore we don’t make an effort to improve them. The digitalization is great in many ways IF we learn how to conduct great meetings that are varied and can inspire and engage others.

3:
“The New Normal” will require a new kind of leadership with leaders that can engage and motivate, and possess a high degree of emotional intelligence. The discrepancy between “bad leaders” and “good leaders” will widen and the leaders that need to develop needs to be identified and trained, especially in topics like EQ, CQ, psychology, behaviors, pedagogical tools and methods, to be able to keep up with the rapid development that takes place.

PS:
"Looking good” will not be as important as we transition into “The New Normal”. “BEING and DOING good” will be of greater importance.
