Creating an inclusive team culture in times of change

A people-first leadership approach
September 07, 2020

The ability to foster such a culture is not something extra, it is a core skill for all leaders now.

COVID-19 fundamentally changed the way we live and work. Some companies changed their business strategies, others had to resort to downsizing, and remote work became the new standard. 

As leaders in tech companies, we are looked upon to take care of our teams in these turbulent times. As a first-line manager, I put my focus on having a people-first approach; I want to treat my colleagues as human beings rather than just employees. How we, as leaders, communicate and manage the changes during COVID-19 to our team matters, as our teammates and peers will never forget how we treat them during this time.
