Focus Question: What learning do you want to undertake? Description Learning can take many forms. As a remote professional, it can be very important to build in time for ongoing learning. As I wrote in Effective Virtual Conversations, consider the following approaches to learning. It might include: What are the things you are wanting to learn? What are the best modalities to learn these? Where else might you explore these learnings? Activity Identify the learning needs you have to do your best work. What type of learning is going to help you? Where can you access this learning? What do you need to schedule in? What else do you need to note? Need to Know In addition to the different types of learning, there are many different areas and bands you can be exploring around learning. Just like this week’s quote, we will want to explore the various layers: actions, habits, values and destiny. So what? – What’s important about this topic? There are many different ways we can learn tasks. What’s going to support you with learning as you need it, when you need it and how you need it?

Description Our values act as anchors and help us with decision making and prioritization. When we act in alignment with our values, professionals may find a higher degree of satisfaction. For example, if I hold a value of freedom, I may thrive in a work place where I have the freedom to determine HOW I do the work, WHEN I do the work, and in what fashion I do the work. While I still may be responsible for end results, being in control of what I do and don’t do may be invaluable. Activity Take a look at the list of 200 values included on the Coaching Business Builder website. As you review them consider these questions: What are the values you hold true? As you review your top 5 values, which ones are non-negotiable? What can you do to adjust your work and flow in order to live more by your values? Need to Know Values serve as an anchor for us. They will help us with prioritization, delegation and overall career planning. So what? – What’s important about this topic? Values are not just an individual framework. Teams have values too. On a remote team it can be very important to identify the values which shape the team (not the individuals). These values will inform the BEHAVIORS people undertake. In turn the BEHAVIORS influence the RESULTS we get. Discussion around values as a team, is not just a “nice to have” but an essential discussion. For more on this: Check out section 1 and section 4 of PlanDoTrack and Coaching Business Builder. Section 1 gets to you to explore what behaviors flow out of your values. Again, if you have a value of freedom, what behaviors does it lead to? How can that help and/or hinder your work and relationships with others in the remote space? What’s important this year? What are going to be your anchors? All the best, Jennifer Check out the most recent Remote Pathways Podcast Episode which covers the topic of Vision.
