Thinking Remote

A book for managers leading remote teams and for employees who want to make a difference. A concise volume to add to your collection of leadership books.

As more companies adopt remote, flexible or office optional practices, managers and team leaders realise that the transition to a new way of working involves more than making sure that everyone has the right equipment to be able to work from home. It requires a change in mindset and approach.


In this collection of articles gathered together from the Virtual not Distant blog, Pilar Orti and Maya Middlemiss reflect on this transition from a change-management perspective, drawn from their experience of working with leaders of distributed teams.


Each article has been selected to cover one area of remote leadership practice, and is followed by a set of leadership reflections to help you identify your next steps. Considering challenges from wellbeing to technology to communication, this series of articles will empower leaders at all levels to improve their personal practice and their team's performance.

Quotes

  • Anniehas quoted4 days ago
    if we are really competitive, those spaces might end up being unhealthy, bragging noticeboards. Or if we are used to keeping our heads down and barely interacting with anyone else, when we move to online communication, we could end up with an unused space that screams: ‘Nobody cares!’

    If it’s competitive, designing an open space for discussion, where everyone can hear everyone else and see each other’s designs or scribbles, might not be the best option – that is, unless you want to challenge and change that culture through changing the environment.

    I have observed that little thought goes into designing the digital workspace in a way that is in line with the organisation’s or team’s culture, or that helps us change it when we need to do so.
