In this episode with Peter Benei, we talked about the following:
- The first 10 years of his career were separated into two distinct phases, in-office and remote.
- He moved to London for a more global view and to prove that he was capable of working in advertising in the center of the world.
- During his time in London, he saw more and more people working remotely.
- Hybrid: there is an office or location, part of the employees go to the office and another part works remotely
- Remote: when people are free from the location, but work at the same time. They work synchronously.
- Async: when people work location and time independently.
- We make bad decisions because we have a time limitation or information limitation.
- You can avoid these bad decisions by writing down the problem and a suggestion on how you would resolve it, then you share it with other people, allowing them to contribute, and having a short meeting to make the decision together. (check the book for a great explanation)
- You create great documentation for your organisation on these types of decisions.
- With asynchronous decision-making making, you have a focused documented meeting at the end.
- Leading a team that operates remotely, requires you to talk less and listen more, be more transparent by documenting everything, and be supportive of your team.
