What to expect
A practical and accessible guide to getting the best from working and managing remotely. The guide that gives you all the know-how you need to manage a team remotely and get the best out of them.
More people are working from home - or remotely in other locations or time zones - than ever before. But with the many advantages remote-working brings, there are also brand-new sets of challenges - especially around effective management and getting the best out of teams that aren't in the same room.
This practical guide gives you all of the skills to succeed as a flexible worker, and as a manager running projects and teams remotely - however far the distance may be. Discover how to adapt your management style and get the best out of your team by defining expectations, understanding the unique challenges of working outside the traditional office environment, and setting up new routines, structures, and processes. Pick up useful tips for adjusting to the home-working environment; staying focused, motivated, communicating and working effectively; keeping projects on track; and achieving the best results.
Essential Managers: Flexible Working takes a no-nonsense, practical approach to the subject, with step-by-step instructions, tips, checklists and "ask yourself" features telling you how to focus your energy, manage change, and make a positive impact.
Whether you're new to flexible working or simply looking to sharpen your skills, this is the go-to audiobook for you.
