Why “Hybrid” is the Right Word Right Now – Remarkable TV

Several years ago, we started using the words “hybrid teams” to describe a team where there are some people working in a physical office and there are some people who work virtually outside of the office. And while we started using this word well before the pandemic made it a household term, we believe that

What Leaders Can Learn from Spiders

by Kevin Eikenberry It’s that time of year when we celebrate ghosts and witches and all things Halloween-y. Most of those things we consider “scary” aren’t real, so they don’t really make us all that fearful. Spiders, on the other hand… Scary or a work of art? If you aren’t too afraid of spiders, the

How Important is Confidence?

That is a broad question – how important is confidence? Let me narrow it down just a bit – how important is confidence at work? Now that we have framed the question, let’s create a useful answer for you. In short, it is more important than you may realize. I could share research to help you

Refreshed for the Future of Work

The future of work for many will include new flexibility in when, where, and with whom people are working. Those changes mean leaders need to adjust their approaches and habits to be prepared for leading in the future. We have long said that while much about leadership hasn’t and won’t change (even with a pandemic),

Lessons from Intermittent Fasting – Remarkable TV

Don’t let that title scare you. I am not turning this into a health series and I am not selling any supplements. 😉 A few of months ago, I decided I wanted to get rid of my “COVID 19”. Pounds that is. So I studied up on intermittent fasting and then I went to work.

Celebrating Birthdays at Work

Birthdays. We all have them, once a year. What can/should/might we do to celebrate birthdays at work? Is that the role of the leader? How has this changed if the team is remote or hybrid? It is those questions (and more) that we will explore below, giving you things to consider, and possibly some things

The Power of Persistence – Remarkable TV

Persistence is good and virtuous. But it’s also hard. And telling someone to be persistent seldom goes all that well. We may know it, but don’t want to hear it – or even know what to do with the advice when we hear it. Many years ago when I was at Purdue, I was having

Being a Long-Distance Role Model

Ask most anyone to tell you why someone is a great leader, and you will likely hear that they are a role model. Ask most who are leading remotely, and they will wonder what it means to be a long-distance role model. After all, how can you be a role model if people can’t even

The Future is Now

The world has changed a lot in the last 20 months. And all of this change has rightly gotten everyone thinking and talking about the future of work. Where will we work, when we will work, how will we work, and will it all work? There is understandable uncertainty about those questions. But now isn’t

Overcoming the Uncertainties of the Future of Work

As you live in this very uncertain present, you can see that the future of your work – where, when, and how you do it – might be changing. If that future looks murky, uncomfortable, or scary, you are not alone. And if you are looking not just for yourself but for your team or
