As hybrid work increasingly becomes the norm, many organizations have abandoned “remote leadership” training. After all, most people are in the office most of the time so that should be our default mindset.

Hybrid work is here, but it doesn’t seem to get any more efficient. It doesn’t seem to actually address problems of engagement, morale or productivity. We ask: what’s optimum? Two days at home?

We’ve heard of “cross-functional teams,” and most of us have been part of one. But too many people have a different challenge.

And evolution. And, on a particular Sunday afternoon, about the evolving workplace. Stick with me on this, there’s a
Something we have been doing our entire lives should be easy and instinctual. Right? What if that thing is communicating? If it’s so natural, why are we always complaining that someone misunderstood what we said, or that meeting could have been an email, but nobody read the email!?

“If you’re not stressed, you’re not paying attention.”- Miles Davis Look, making a living is stressful. As my father always pointed out, “they call it work for a reason.” But if you’re feeling more stressed than usual, you’re not alone.
