One of the pain points we are seeing in today’s hybrid workspace is the concern on the part of employees that they, and their work, are not being seen enough. I thought it would be interesting to go back to the PlanDoTrack blog from 2020 to take a look at what I had written about visibility. Let’s take a look:
Many workers are concerned that visibility in the remote and virtual workspace is not like being “seen” in the in-person realm. In contrast, many others feel like they have never been more visible. What are you doing to remain visible in the digital and virtual space?
Business continues to leverage relationships and is grounded in results. What are you doing to foster business relationships while getting the work done?
Here are a number of activities you might want to consider:
Mentoring – Many professional associations connect professionals at all stages of their careers with a mentor. Mentoring can be an invaluable way to learn from others in your profession and organization.
Join a professional association – If you are not a member of your professional association, this may be a great time to join. Many host ongoing professional development activities at no or low fee, while others may host Virtual speed networking rounds.
Join a LinkedIn or Facebook group – Whether it’s connecting in for conversation or connecting in to take action in something like a Challenge, joining a social media group can connect you in with core topics of importance. I recently held the Stand Out Virtually challenge and was amazed to see the progress people made during the challenge.
Take an online learning course – There are a variety of courses different providers offer. I continue to offer several courses which are approved for International Coach Federation Continuing Coach Education Units – including Group Coaching Essentials and Virtual Facilitation Essentials. In addition to skill development, online learning courses often connect you in with others with a keen interest.
What are you looking to learn this year? What connections are you looking to foster?

Enjoy your conversations,
