David Burkus on Leading from Anywhere, Working Remotely

Chris Heuer
January 5, 2021

If you are leading a remote team, whether you’ve been doing it for years or are doing it for the first time, pick up a copy of David Burkus’ just released book, “Leading from Anywhere”.

A Lesson from 2020: We Must Slow Down

Chris Heuer
December 31, 2020

2020 taught us a lot this year, mainly that “slowing down” is not a luxury, but a requirement for our mental health and wellness. Our society can no longer operate at warp speed. There is too much at stake to ignore this challenge.

“Our love of speed has turned into an addiction.” We need to stop overreacting, being quick to anger, and slow to empathy if we want to help build a brighter tomorrow.

Giving yourself permission to go slow, to be more present, is no longer something we should do, it is something we MUST do.

In a hybrid work world, white-collar employers have embraced the concept of "hot-desking" (not having your own desk) as a savings tool. Employees don't love it. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-the-great-divide-over-over-hot-desking-while-companies-see-cost/

Yes, better pay and benefits are essential for retention.

But when employers fail to ensure that staff feel connected and fulfilled, they ignore what employees themselves say is driving them to reassess their relationship with their employers.

The folks at @CultureAmp have shared four areas that People & Ops teams should focus on in 2022.

One of them is to redefine perks since that foosball table in the office is gathering a bit of dust. 😀
