The workplace of the future will look different than it has in the past and vary from what it looks today due to the normalization of working remotely. Across the healthcare industry, employees have pivoted to working in completely virtual teams. From a career development perspective, it can be challenging to take steps into a new role or new company when working remotely is the norm rather than the exception. When considering a new opportunity, a candidate assesses the culture of the organization as well as the job role. In situations where a candidate is looking to move into a different type of role, this assessment and the feasibility of transferring their skills becomes even more important. During this panel session we will hear from individuals who have identified opportunities, transferred their skills and learned how to integrate into a new organization working virtually.
Learning Objective : - Identify key considerations when assessing opportunities remotely
- Identify foundational skills that can be transferred to new roles or new organizations regardless of working environment
- Discuss beneficial adjustments in skillsets that can enable stronger integration into virtual teams and organizations
