Welcome to the Future of Work! We’re all moving forward in what will be viewed in hindsight as a major change in how we all work. In the first of a series of videos, Kevin and Wayne take a look at what some of the biggest concerns are facing both leaders and team members as
Humans have a love-hate relationship with technology. We curse the need to be tethered to email and Slack for work while not being able to avoid our personal screens for more than a few minutes at a time. Everyone complains about the tools they have at their disposal, but shudder at the thought of learning
When trying to determine the future, you can read Tarot cards, look in a crystal ball, or follow the money being invested by people who can afford to make big bets.

In all the talk about hybrid work and RTO (Returning To Office for those of us who are acronym-intolerant), it’s easy to stress out. Let me remind you of a very simple rule to help guide your thinking. In The Long-Distance Leader: Rules for Remarkable Remote Leadership, we have 18 (sort of 19) rules for
What do you know about how the next couple of months look for your team? There’s a strange tension in the air right now as people see the end of the COVID tunnel.
