Leading at a Distance. Darleen DeRosa

Чтение книги онлайн.

СКАЧАТЬ coupled with his interest in the topic (and the fact that he has written seven books), made him a great co-author. Whenever we had a question, Jim called CEOs or other top leaders to get an insider's perspective. A fun example of this is when we were reading about new advancements in Microsoft Teams to combat video fatigue, Jim contacted Satya Nadella and Kathleen Hogan, CEO and CHRO of Microsoft, respectively, who put us in direct touch with Jeff Teper, the leader of the product, design, and engineering teams for Microsoft 365, which includes Microsoft Teams.

      Working on the book virtually with our superb internal project team (Ashley Zaslav, Hannah Ford, and Will Dowling) has also been an opportunity for us to test out new approaches. We navigated learning how to leverage different technologies and channel flexibility. Some of us took video calls from our kids’ playroom or a hospital room with a relative; one of us sent notes while out at sea on a boat in Bermuda, all the while learning more about each other as people and employees.

      What I love most about this book is that it integrates more than 15 years of research and experience in a practical way that anyone can apply. We hope that you enjoy this labor of love.
