James Claver

Two thumbs up in Returning to the Office and Leading Hybrid and Remote Teams" book. This is such an amazing one worth sharing. When I read the title I honestly don't understand what it means and hesitant to open it. But, when I gave it a try, I rushed to the page where survey results conducted by top leaders, which showed that those working from home gained more work/life balance and flexibility. I was also become interested in learning about performance evaluation system, which the employer could definitely change this by not relying on time worked, but instead focus on employee's productivity since they are working remotely. If only I find this book earlier, I could have addressed the work-from-home burnout and Zoom fatigue immediately. I could have suggested earlier to my lead to have a training in virtual communication and collaboration to fix the issue and achieve harmonious relationship towards co-workers. Been suffering this for a year when I shifted to a telework setting. I suffered in communication and collaboration towards my colleagues, which resulted to become unproductive and have low self-esteem. One thing that amazes me is the "Morning Update" idea. Thanks for sharing this. Indeed, it provides a good balance for building relationships and cultivating trust that fits the different preferences and personalities of the company’s employees.
