1. NEVER GO “BACK” TO WORK—ONLY GO FORWARD TO WORK. At the peak of the pandemic, we saw this as a huge inflection point, a great opportunity for individuals to redefine strategies, workplaces, teams, and social contracts. But what we are afraid of is that, after this great opportunity, people will crawl out of the rubble and...
Back to work? This sounds like the obvious end goal we’ve all been waiting for after roughly two years of the COVID-19 pandemic. But wait a minute. Does this make sense? Remote work went from being an awkward crisis workaround to a routine with its own rhythm and plenty of upsides. It turned out that increased...
In the post-pandemic world, mental well-being in the workplace should be more than a safety net or medical benefit. It is a driver of shareholder value and productivity, and critical in the war for talent. Organizations that crack the code of well-being in this new paradigm of hybrid work—banishing the outdated stigma around mental health...
As we move into this new paradigm of business post-pandemic, the hybrid workforce—where some team members work remote and some from the office—is our new reality. Yet today’s thinking about remote work is full of wrongheadedness and failed use cases rather than best practice. Many business leaders are still locked into thinking that the best...
Zoom happy hours? Check. Slack channels for #dogs and #sourdough? Check. Free meditation apps for everyone? Check. Businesses have thrown a lot of solutions at rising frustration, fatigue, and stress in the workplace. Is it working? The jury’s out. In June, the CDC reported that 40% of U.S. adults struggled with mental health and substance...
Over the course of the last three weeks, as corporate America has made the transition from meetings in conference rooms and common spaces to Zoom calls and other online sessions, I’m struck by the number of confident, competent executives who’ve confessed to me that they’re struggling to lead teams in the virtual world. Their efforts...
Nothing in my life has created opportunity like a willingness to ask, whatever the situation. When I was just an anonymous attendee at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, I walked onto a hotel bus and saw Nike founder Phil Knight. Knight was like a rock star to me, given his extraordinary success at creating...
A great quote, paraphrased from San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, via the blog of the guy behind Pursue the Passion: “A sculptor had a large stone that he wanted split down the middle. He took a big swing with his hammer to meet the chisel with a vengeance, only to find the stone unaffected...
Earlier today I spoke with an incredible woman who’s spent most of her career as an activist, working in nonprofits. Her work helped a lot of people, but it didn’t exactly earn her a lot of money. But worse, after a while the constant attempt to right the world’s wrongs got under her skin. It...
With increasing unemployment making front page news these days, you may think your prospects for success this year are dwindling (particularly if you’re already in the market for a new job). Life’s easier and opportunities flow more freely when the economy’s on fire. But that doesn’t mean that there aren’t opportunities in a tightening market...
We’ve studied what unlocks team potential for more than twenty-one years. Our new research shows how to reclaim 30% of your life and empower hybrid teams.
Plus, find out how to gain a 79% increase in candor, 75% increase in development, 46% increase in collaboration and a 44% increase in accountability.
Meetings have become our $283 billion habit of wasted time a year. We have a data-driven solution that proves that much of the academic research on virtual team collaboration is wrongheaded, biased and focused on failed use cases. And these are the radically transformative results we see from the practices shared in this white paper.
