Monthly Safety Training

Required monthly safety training sessions are sent to staff directly through the Grainger Learning Management System (GLMS). The GLMS platform allows employees to see their specific training dashboard as well as gives supervisory staff an enhanced way to track and record engagement and completion.

Staff will see emails from alerts_graingerlms@icertainty.com when new trainings are available. You can access GLMS and assigned training at fands.icertainty.com using your netID and password.

Robbie, working remotely, can’t find the current process map his team is developing, and when he sends an instant message and then a phone call to the team lead, there is no response, so he sits and frustratingly waits. Does this sound familiar?

There are benefits to remote and hybrid work, from the flexibility of time for life and living to managing the well-being needs of self and others, including child/elder care. The key to performance success with hybrid teams is to create clear expectations around communications, timeframes, and shared resources and to communicate them actively among all teammates. Creating a culture of open conversations, curiosity, and trust in the intentions of everyone, regardless of location and time, is the framework hybrid teams require to work effectively and efficiently with each other.

Research and our personal experience have shown that trust is a key factor in team performance and, by extension, in organizational performance. As COVID-19 brought about a sudden shift to hybrid and virtual collaboration, the need for trust-building in new ways was seen. In this session, we will explore how you can foster trust and develop the communication and workflow process techniques needed within your hybrid and virtual team.
