Synopsis

The latest book from remote-leadership experts shows leaders how to design a team culture that has a "one-team" mindset and gets great results under hybrid-work conditions. <p/>With hybrid work becoming increasingly common, organizations must address the unique challenges that hybrid teams pose and learn how to purposefully design them. The Long-Distance Team guides leaders on how to create the culture they envision for their teams and organizations while navigating a new way of working. <p/>This title shows how to apply the 3C model of team design--which focuses on connection, cohesion, and collaboration--to create from scratch a successful hybrid team and culture. It shows how leaders of all levels can overcome challenges such as proximity bias and deteriorating social connections to create an environment where everyone can contribute and add value equally, regardless of location. <p/>Drawing on their expertise in remote leadership, authors Kevin Eikenberry and Wayne Turmel provide tested guidance for building long-distance teams. The book includes practical tools and models that leaders can apply to define their aspirational culture, consciously design teams, and create and nurture engagement. <p/>Discussion guide is available in the book for reading groups and book clubs.
