Description

How can we best manage remote teams? What skills can we develop & techniques can we deploy, to be more effective when we're not face to face.It's a question that doesn't just apply to Line Managers - it's also relevant to those managing human risk. If we want to get the best out of employees, then we need to understand how best to engage with them in a virtual environment. That's what my guest on this episode, David Burkus, explores in his new book 'Leading from Anywhere: The Essential Guide to Managing Remote Teams'. Filled with practical suggestions, its a guide to engaging with people who aren’t in the same location as you. In our discussion, David shares some fascinating insights about what he’s learned about the subject, that obviously apply to leaders but are also hugely relevant to everyone trying to engage with others remotely.

People are often described as the largest asset in most organisations. They are also the biggest single cause of risk. This podcast explores the topic of 'human risk', or "the risk of people doing things they shouldn't or not doing things they should", and examines how behavioural science can help us mitigate it. It also looks at 'human reward', or "how to get the most out of people". When we manage human risk, we often stifle human reward. Equally, when we unleash human reward, we often inadvertently increase human risk.
