In this 3-part series, you will learn strategies to help you and your team navigate these major changes and adapt your management style to the moment.

The field of international education finds itself in an unprecedented situation. Managers are tasked with leading their teams through massive change, uncertainty, and, in many cases, a transition to a virtual environment. Managers may be confronted with shifting staff roles and responsibilities, maintaining influence with key stakeholders virtually, and continuing to create a positive community environment for their teams in a virtual space.
