We would like to thank a few community members for choosing Tree of Life for their Leadership Loudoun class project. Their goal was to focus on a non-profit organization within Loudoun County and volunteer their time. Members of this year's class chose a variety of activities to participate in across TOL’s 3 Regions: Purcellville's Food Pantry and Community Dinner, Leesburg's ESOL Class, and our clothing boutique, The Clothing Closet. We so enjoyed hosting them and appreciate their time and interest!
🎥 Coming soon: Building Strong Hybrid Teams
Recently, I collaborated with Maria Asuelimen on this updated online course. As you can see, we had some fun!
A Hybrid organization is simply any organization that offers some combination of in-office work and virtual work to its employees.
According to research from Zippia, a global career development and job placement firm, about half of US companies offered some form of Hybrid Work options before the pandemic. Whereas today, they report that a full 90% of US companies provide some Hybrid options for their employees.
How is your team handling this transition? This new/updated online course will definitely help you and your team overcome the challenges of the hybrid context and move into high performance as part of an effective hybrid organization.

Thanks to Leadership Loudoun for inviting LBA to participate in this year's class project. Today LBA, representatives from Loudoun County DIT, Bear Chase Brewing Company, and local professionals were all panelists in a discussion about broadband in Loudoun County. The class will spend the afternoon brainstorming for creative approaches to help solve the lack of reliable and affordable broadband in Loudoun County.
