Leadership principles for getting the best out of remote work
By 2025, an estimated 70 percent of the workforce will work remotely at least five days each month. Remote work is here to stay. As a result, remote leadership is now a core competency for most executives and managers.
“Today, everybody is struggling with working at home. It’s easy to join a Zoom meeting, but it’s another matter make the meeting effective, engaging and meaningful.”
In The Virtual Leader, author Takako Hirata, an experienced leader of large international virtual teams, shares her proven methods for thriving in the remote workplace with the help of new leadership principles.
Leaders cannot simply transfer what they’ve been doing in the office to the remote context. While the goals remain the same —efficiency, engagement, community— the means of achieving those are very different.
In The Virtual Leader – How to Manage a Remote Workplace, Takako Hirata shares the proven leadership methods she has developed over nearly a decade coordinating teams across the globe as the head of international business development.
“While the pandemic is still redefining what modern working space looks like, this is the time to care for – and trust – the digital employee experience… From the workplace setup to meeting logistics to mental health, Takako gives you a total package to excel in this new world.” – Alex Chiang, Principal Software Engineering Manager, Microsoft
