Watch the talk here: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/out-of-office-ii-work-in/4 As remote work continues to boom, companies are realising the need to embrace virtual collaboration to attract and retain the best talent. But knowing where to start or making that shift towards going fully remote may not come easy for all companies. More often than not, the focus is spent introducing new tools instead of nurturing the most important ingredient that makes remote work successful: culture. Laïla will introduce the game-changing mindsets and processes that help teams collaborate better remotely and will share the lessons she and her participants have learned from her remote workshops.
