Many organizations are shifting to a remote workforce in order to be competitive and many more are built as remote-first outfits. The sudden global experiment has proven that remote teams are in fact possible and widely effective across industries when done right. Remotely Possible addresses the challenges and opportunities that remote teams face, starting with the current landscape and looking forward to the future of remote working. Author Shawn Belling insightfully addresses what leaders must do to effectively lead a remote team, whether it is in a remote-first organization or in an organization trying the concept for the first time. There are long-term strategies you can adapt to your own organization, and Remotely Possible explores these in addition to the benefits that come with broad acceptance of remote workforces. Globally distributed teams are more common than ever, and with the correct approach and digital plan, yours can take an organization to the next level.
Communication and collaboration tools emerged to make distributed team collaboration easier – some efficient, some not so much. Internet Relay Chat (IRC) enabled geographically distributed teams to communicate via text in real time. Tools like Skype added improved user interfaces (UI) and combined Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) capabilities to enable anyone to place calls and instant message. Tools like GitHub enabled remote teams of software developers to store and manage code. Emerging cloud storage firms like Dropbox and Box provided distributed organizations with the ability to store and share files in the cloud.
Belling acknowledges the challenges that come with changes to a team’s work culture, communication tools, and foundations of trust in an all-digital, remote workplace. Adaptation is key and Remotely Possible gives you all the practical, real-world lessons you need to tackle these major changes head-on. Remote work is here to stay.
