Beyond Zoom: Best Practices for Leading Remote Teams

Episode 45

Thursday, September 25, 2025 • Duration 29:41

Send us a text

Leading a remote team isn’t new, but it’s more common than ever. Long before 2020, companies like IBM and Dell had remote employees, but when COVID hit, the world of work changed overnight. In April 2020, Gallup reported that about 70% of the U.S. workforce was suddenly remote. And even as offices reopened, hybrid and remote work became the new normal.

But here’s the challenge: you can’t lead a remote team the same way you lead an in-office team. What works face-to-face doesn’t always translate through Zoom, Slack, or email. Myths about productivity and engagement have left many leaders feeling like they have to micromanage or worse, like they can’t truly trust their teams.

During this episode, I break through some of the most common myths and actually provide practical steps to help you effectively lead remote teams and build powerhouse teams that get real results.

Episode 43

Tuesday, September 9, 2025 • Duration 24:21

Send us a text

You know that sinking feeling when you start a new job and immediately wonder, “Did I make the right choice?”

That’s exactly what happens to new employees when onboarding falls short. And here’s the truth: once doubt creeps in, it’s hard to undo.

In this episode, we’ll dive into why onboarding is so much more than paperwork, how to avoid giving your new hires “buyer’s remorse,” and what leaders can do to create an experience that builds confidence, connection, and commitment.

Episode takeaway: Don’t let your new hires second-guess their decision to join your team. Onboarding is your chance to show them they belong and set the foundation for high performance.
